ObjectiveClinical practice currently faces a significant shortfall in specific biomarkers needed for diagnosing right ventricular (RV) remodeling in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). MiRNA sequencing analyses revealed 19 dif-miRNAs (12 upregulated and 7 downregulated) between the two groups.
Bioelectronic medicine scientists at The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research used noninvasive, splenic focused ultrasound stimulation (sFUS) and found they can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The research team delivered sFUS to cohorts of preclinical models with the disease.
“This latest patent further secures the broad therapeutic potential of brilaroxazine for inflammatory conditions driven by underlying disruption in serotonin signaling like pulmonary hypertension,” said Laxminarayan Bhat, Ph.D. Founder, President, and CEO. Brilaroxazine has already received Orphan Drug Designation by the U.S.
Specific cardiovascular diseases, such as acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmias, pulmonary hypertension and pericarditis, were also pointed. Further studies are needed to identify specific/distinctive biomarkers to improve early detection of CVDs in silica exposed workers.

Panelists discuss how chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management follows a stepwise approach, beginning with bronchodilators (typically short-acting 2-agonists/long-acting 2-agonists) and progressing to combination therapy with long-acting muscarinic antagonists/inhaled corticosteroids based on symptom severity.
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a complex pulmonary vascular disorder that involves major vessel and microvascular disease components. Fibrotic obstructions resulting from unresolved pulmonary emboli constitute the major vessel disease component.
Methods In this study, blood samples were collected from 16 patients before and 24h after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) via a novel investigational PFA-based technology.
Background:Acquired mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the characteristics of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Exploring potential biomarkers from mitochondrial perspective may be effective in the diagnosis and treatment of PAH. ARMCX3 has strong stability and high accuracy in predicting PAH patients.
BackgroundPercutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT) is increasingly used in the treatment of intermediate and high-risk acute pulmonary embolism (PE), and the treatment of high-risk PE with the aid of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has also been reported. The mortality rate was 27.3% during the 90-day follow-up.
BackgroundThe relationship between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has garnered significant scrutiny. Individuals with HIV infection have a higher risk of developing PAH. However, the specific mechanism of HIV-associated PAH remains unclear.
25 include Efficacy and safety of finerenone across the spectrum of kidney risk in heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction during the session;"Innovations and Insights in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: Emerging Therapies, Biomarkers and Mechanistic Studies."
The dysfunction of pulmonary artery endothelial cells plays a pivotal role in the initiation and progression of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Blood samples were collected for biomarker examination from healthy donors or patients with hypoxic PH.
Inhaled NO has the unique ability to exert its vasodilatory effects in the pulmonary vasculature without any hypotensive side-effects in the systemic circulation. We will move on to the popular use of inhaled NO and will talk about the evidence base of the use of this selective pulmonary vasodilator.
a developer of cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, announced success from a collaborative Phase II trial of ProtheraCytes for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) led by CellProthera , as well as plans to continue the relationship into Phase III.
Exosomes containing microRNAs (miRs) have emerged as a novel biomarker. Transpulmonary exosomal miRs offer valuable insights into pulmonary circulation microenvironments. Using an in vitro flow model simulating the shear stress experienced by pulmonary endothelial cells, we observed a significant upregulation of miR‐21.
CardioSignal has already developed digital biomarkers for AFib and heart failure, while more solutions could be on the way for aortic stenosis, coronary artery disease, and pulmonary artery hypertension.
Abstract Aims A cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approach to non-invasively estimate left ventricular (LV) filling pressure was recently developed and shown to correlate with invasively measured pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP).

EIH was defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) at peak exercise >210 mm Hg in men or >190 mm Hg in women.RESULTS:In this prospective cohort study, we assessed patients with COA (n=41, age 4314 years, 26 [63%] men) and healthy controls (n=41).
Background:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by an elevation in pulmonary vascular resistance and arterial pressure, culminating in right ventricular failure and mortality. Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4142484-A4142484, November 12, 2024.
The objective of this study was to investigate the ability of insulin-like growth-factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), to predict c-AKI, AKI and RVF in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, as compared to N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) and pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi).
Tricuspid valve replacement was performed in 26 (53%) patients including 19 (73%) cases of combined pulmonary valve replacement. Prospective, multicentre studies are warranted to better define the management strategy and to identify biomarkers associated with outcome in CHD.
Blood samples for biomarker analyses, including IL-6, were collected.Results:There were 64 consecutive STEMI patients. Patients with IL-6 concentrations cut-off point showed a significantly higher time of STEMI, GOT, higher pulmonary arterial pressure, and longitudinal tracking of left atrial diameter. There was 75% of males.
This study investigated myocardial injury and inflammation following pulmonary vein isolation using (1) Standard radiofrequency ablation, (2) very high-power short-duration (vHPSD)-70W, (3) vHPSD-90W, and (4) pulsed-field ablation (PFA).
This study aimed to quantify the impact of PEF energy on erythrocyte damage during AF ablation by assessing specific hemolytic biomarkers. Ablation beyond pulmonary vein isolation was performed at the operator's discretion.
The patient had been on a long drive, suggesting possible pulmonary embolism (this was unlikely given absence of tachyardia, hypoxia, or any other feature of PE), so we sent a d dimer. [We Patients with ACS and acute pulmonary edema 3. Owing to a poor short- and long-term prognosis if left untreated, an immediate (i.e.

Methods Patients with rate-controlled persistent AF and LVEF<50% undergoing catheter ablation (CA) were prospectively evaluated using echocardiography, cardio-pulmonary exercise testing and serum N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) at baseline and 6 months after CA.
Both reperfusion, as judged by the biomarker curve, and patency, as assessed by the angiogram, were correlated with the rapidity and depth of T wave inversion. Rupture can be either free wall rupture (causing tamponade) or septal rupture, causing ventricular septal defect with left to right flow and resulting pulmonary edema and shock.
