Can heart failure phenotypes be predicted by cardiac remodelling peripartum or postpartum?

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

In the short-term it can result in pre-eclampsia, haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome, or even hypertension associated acute heart failure, all of which may necessitate pre-term delivery to prevent maternal or neonatal death.

Expert Perspective: The Obesity Paradox with Salvatore Carbone, PhD

Cardiometabolic Health Congress

There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heart disease, heart failure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. [1] Is the obesity paradox a real phenomenon?

Highlights of ACC 2024

Cardiology Update

Investigators assessed if empagliflozin could lower the risk of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) or death from cardiovascular disease (CVD). STEP-HFpEF DM 5 ( NCT04916470 ) explored the effects of semaglutide in obesity-related HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and type 2 diabetes.
