Effects of exercise training on left ventricular systolic and diastolic function after myocardial infarction: systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

ObjectivesExercise training is a rehabilitative approach to improve cardiac function in patients with myocardial infarction. However, evidence on the effectiveness of exercise training in these patients remains limited. In this meta-analysis, we aim to evaluate the extent to which exercise training improves cardiac function in patients with myocardial infarction.MethodsWe conducted a systematic search of the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases to compare cardiac functi

Cardio-cerebral infarction: a narrative review of pathophysiology, treatment challenges, and prognostic implications

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Cardio-cerebral infarction (CCI) is a rare clinical syndrome characterized by the simultaneous or sequential occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

Vascular inflammation in chronic kidney disease: the role of uremic toxins in macrophage activation

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive condition characterized by the gradual loss of kidney function, leading to the accumulation of uremic toxins in the bloodstream. These toxins play a pivotal role in mediating vascular inflammation, a key contributor to the high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality observed in CKD patients. This review article explores the intricate mechanisms by which uremic toxins accelerate vascular inflammation.
