Comparison of Quantity of Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaques Detected by Computed Tomography Versus Angiography
Abstract Numerous clinical studies using coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) and conventional invasive coronary angiography (ICA) confirmed the strong relation between atherosclerotic disease burden and risk of adverse events. Few studies have compared coronary CTA and ICA regarding semiquantitative plaque burden measurements, reproducibility, and cardiovascular risk assessment. ...

MRE associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with NAFLD - Case study
A new study was published in March of 2021 demonstrating that elevated liver stiffness, as measured by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), is associated with higher rates of cardiovascular disease in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). As clinical researchers, regulators and pharmaceutical partners pursue noninvasive biomarkers to replace liver biopsy, links to adverse ...

Emerging therapy for HFpEF: SGLT2 inhibitors
Recent clinical trials investigating sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have highlighted that this drug is highly effective in treating patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF is a complex disease which accounts for more than half of all heart failure (HF) hospital admissions and is an increasing disease burden. [1] The prevalence of HFpEF is ...
