High intensity interval training vs. moderate intensity continuous training on aerobic capacity and functional capacity in patients with heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Background Exercise training is commonly employed as a efficacious supplementary treatment for individuals suffering from heart failure, but the optimal exercise regimen is still controversial. 41.70), and Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MD = −4.45, 95% CI for −6.25

Abstract 4144084: Enhanced External Counterpulsation as a Novel Treatment for Heart Transplant Candidates with Ischemic Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction

Circulation

Introduction:Enhanced External Counterpulsation (EECP) is a noninvasive outpatient therapy designed to improve arterial health, cardiac efficiency, and coronary collateral formation by applying sequential external pressure aligned with the patient’s cardiac cycle.

Clinical efficacy and safety of adjunctive treatment of chronic ischemic heart failure with Qishen Yiqi dropping pills: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Objectives Our study was to evaluate the effect of Qishen Yiqi Dropping Pills(QSYQ) on the prognosis of chronic ischemic heart failure(CIHF) and its safety. A total of 21 studies ( n  = 2,742) evaluated their adverse effects, of which 13 studies reported no adverse effects and 8 studies reported minor adverse effects.

Aerobic Exercise Attenuates Pressure Overload–Induced Myocardial Remodeling and Myocardial Inflammation via Upregulating miR-574-3p in Mice

Circulation: Heart Failure

Circulation: Heart Failure, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Exercise training can promote cardiac rehabilitation, thereby reducing cardiovascular disease mortality and hospitalization rates. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction detection showed that aerobic exercise upregulated the expression level of miR-574-3p (n=6).

Rivus HU6 Shows Obesity-HFpEF Potential

CardiacWire

Perhaps more importantly , the HU6 group achieved a range of obesity and HF-related secondary endpoints, including exercise capacity, quality of life, body composition, cardiac function/structure, and cardiometabolic dysfunction markers (e.g.

Association between locomotor muscle quality and cardiac function during exercise in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Muscle quality and cardiac function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) during exercise. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the relationship between locomotor MQ and cardiac function during exercise in HFpEF. MQ was calculated as peak watts divided by LL%.

Associations of iron deficiency with cardiac function, congestion, exercise capacity and prognosis in heart failure

European Journal of Heart Failure

Functional capacity by peak oxygen uptake (VO 2 ): 16ml/kg/min, 1015.9ml/kg/min and <10ml/kg/min. Abstract Aims Uncertainty exists about defining true iron deficiency (ID) in heart failure (HF) patients. Alternative ID definitions based on TSAT (<20%), iron (13 mol/L), and ferritin (<100 or<300ng/ml) were explored.
