Cardiovascular disease is an increasing risk of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients, related to an growing number of aging survivors with pre-existing cardiovascular disease and the use of trad...
The 2025 ESC (European Society of Cardiology) Clinical Consensus Statement on mental health and cardiovascular disease is a milestone for psychiatry as much as for cardiology. It recognizes mental dis...
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) account for 70% of global mortality and are responsible for over 38 million deaths annually, with cardiovascular disease (CVD) constituting most of these fatalities. W...
Existing bioelectronics often exhibit megapascal-scale moduli, despite the mechanosensitive nature of cardiomyocytes. Bridging the mechanical mismatch between tissue and bioelectronics is indispensabl...
There is increasing recognition that social determinants of health affect outcomes in individuals with congenital heart disease and cause health disparities. This scientific statement from the Europea...
Renal denervation is an innovative method of treating hypertension (HT), used in clinical practicefor about a decade. The pathophysiological basis of this method derives from the role of efferentand a...
BACKGROUND: Congenital heart diseases (CHD) require an in-depth anatomopathological understanding. 3D printing is a promising educational tool for creating physical prototypes from imaging data, but c...
The 2025 European Society of Cardiology (ESC)/European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery guidelines for the management of valvular heart disease (VHD), presented at the ESC Congress in Madrid, u...
Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are medical devices that play a significant role in the management of heart disease by regulating cardiac rate and rhythm. CIEDs encompass pacemakers, imp...
Despite spectacular progress in the treatment of patients diagnosed with cancer, cardiovascular diseases are the second leading cause of death in cancer patients, after cancer itself. According to the...
Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology (AHFTC) is a vital subspecialty addressing the growing burden of heart failure and the increasing need for advanced therapies such as mechanical circul...
Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, with heart failure (HF) recognized as its most severe and debilitating manifestation. Though remarkable advancements have led to the establishmen...
BACKGROUND: Guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is under-prescribed. Real-world data regarding contemporary GDMT prescribin...
The novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, created a need for evidence-based guidelines for the evaluation, management, and follow-up after infection. Data have bec...
BACKGROUND: Cardiac electrophysiologists and electrophysiology (EP) laboratory professionals face underexplored occupational hazards, including direct and indirect effects of radiation exposure, ortho...
The treatment of valvular heart disease plays an important role in cardiovascular medicine. The 2025 European Society of Cardiology (ESC)/European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EACTS) guide...
Intermediate cardiac care units (IMCU) provide a level of care between hospital wards and cardiac acute care units. They are designed for patients who require close monitoring or noncritical support, ...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence has emerged as a promising tool to optimize patient care in the field of cardiovascular medicine. However, data on its adoption and utilization by healthcare profes...
This systematic comparative analysis examines the divergent approaches between the 2025 American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA)/Multisociety (ACC/AHA/Multisociety) and th...
