[The impact of extended travel abroad on patients with heart failure].
Heart failure is a chronic condition whose course can be affected by extended travel. This prospective, open-label study evaluated the impact of stays abroad lasting more than two months on a populati...
[A low-sodium diet for heart failure: necessary or harmful?].
Heart failure is a common condition that leads to a large number of hospitalizations, a high mortality rate, and significant costs for the healthcare system. The symptoms and chronic nature of the dis...
[How patients with heart failure perceive the announcement in a hospital setting].
Heart failure is most often diagnosed in a hospital setting following cardiac decompensation. The delivery of the diagnosis does not occur within a specific framework designed to help patients come to...
Targeting S100A8/A9 Ameliorates Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction by Modulating TLR4/NF-κB-Mediated Inflammation.
BACKGROUND: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has emerged as one of the most challenging public health issues worldwide, with few effective preventive and therapeutic options avai...

Aerobic exercise partially improves the skeletal muscle phenotype in a model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in male mice.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is associated with skeletal muscle dysfunction that contributes to exercise intolerance and disease progression. Altered Ca2+ homeostasis and inc...
Ambulatory Stage C2D Heart Failure Definitions and Current Therapeutic Approaches: JACC: Heart Failure Position Statement.
Symptomatic heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction is traditionally drawn as 2 stages. Most stage C patients report manageable symptoms on guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), whereas...
Plasma proteomics enhances heart failure risk prediction among individuals with type 2 diabetes: a prospective cohort study.
