Earlier research showed that primary care clinicians using AI-ECG tools identified more unknown cases of a weak heart pump, also called low ejection fraction, than without AI. New study findings suggest that this type of screening is also cost-effective in the long term, especially in outpatient settings.

University of Virginia School of Medicine researchers say they've solved the mystery. Commonly prescribed drugs used to treat high blood pressure have been shown to, over time, wreck the kidneys' ability to filter and purify blood, but exactly how that dangerous side effect unfolded has been a riddle.

As society ages, the number of patients with heart failure is rapidly increasing. Excessive growth of fibrotic tissue in the heart, known as fibrosis, is associated with the progression of heart failure. A group from the Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan has found an enzyme protein kinase N (PKN) that regulates heart fibrosis.
