Vaccinations, cardiovascular drugs, hospitalisation and mortality in COVID-19 and Long COVID.
(2024-06-26)OBJECTIVE: To identify highest-risk subgroups for COVID-19 and Long COVID(LC), particularly in contexts of influenza and cardiovascular disease(CVD). METHODS: Using national, linked electronic health records for England(NHS ... -
Management of Cardiac Sarcoidosis: A Clinical Consensus Statement of the Heart Failure Association, the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging, the ESC Working Group on Myocardial & Pericardial Diseases and the European Heart Rhythm Association of the ESC
(Oxford University Press, 26-06-2024)Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a form of inflammatory cardiomyopathy associated with significant clinical complications such as high-degree atrioventricular block, ventricular tachycardia, and heart failure as well as sudden ... -
Multimodality imaging for the evaluation and management of patients with long-term (durable) left ventricular assist devices A Clinical Consensus Statement of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) of the ESC
(Oxford University Press, 05-07-2024)Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are gaining increasing importance as therapeutic strategy in advanced heart failure (HF), not only as bridge to recovery or to transplant, but also as destination therapy. Even though ... -
Machine Learning of Cardiac Anatomy and the Risk of New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation After TAVR.
(2024-05-16)BACKGROUND: New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) occurs in 5% to 15% of patients who undergo transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Cardiac imaging has been underutilized to predict NOAF following TAVR. ... -
Time to Go with the Flow in Coronary Artery Disease in TAVR?
(Radiological Society of North America, 2024-03-28) -
Inflammatory risk and cardiovascular events in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease: the ORFAN multicentre, longitudinal cohort study.
(Elsevier, 2024-05-29)BACKGROUND: Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is the first line investigation for chest pain, and it is used to guide revascularisation. However, the widespread adoption of CCTA has revealed a large group of ... -
Regional Distribution of Extracellular Volume Quantified by Cardiac CT in Aortic Stenosis: Insights Into Disease Mechanisms and Impact on Outcomes.
(American Heart Association, 2024-05-21)BACKGROUND: Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) is a marker for myocardial fibrosis and infiltration, can be quantified using cardiac computed tomography (ECVCT), and has prognostic utility in several diseases. This study ... -
Distal Ventricular Pacing for Drug-Refractory Mid-Cavity Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Personalized Pacing
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 19-06-2024)BACKGROUND: Patients with refractory, symptomatic left ventricular (LV) mid-cavity obstructive (LVMCO) hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have few therapeutic options. Right ventricular pacing is associated with modest hemodynamic ... -
Global Longitudinal Active Strain Energy Density (GLASED): A Powerful Prognostic Marker in a Community-Based Cohort
(Oxford University Press, 20-05-2024)Background Identifying the imaging method that best predicts all-cause mortality, cardiovascular adverse events and heart failure risk is crucial for tailoring optimal management. Potential prognostic markers include left ... -
Myocardial blood flow by magnetic resonance in patients with suspected coronary stenosis: comparison to PET and invasive physiology
(American Heart Association, 18-06-2024)BACKGROUND: Despite recent guideline recommendations, quantitative perfusion (QP) estimates of myocardial blood flow from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) have only been sparsely validated. Furthermore, the additional ... -
Evaluation of Deep Learning Estimation of Whole Heart Anatomy from Automated Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Short- and Long-Axis Analyses in UK Biobank
(Oxford University Press, 09-05-2024)Aims Standard methods of heart chamber volume estimation in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) typically utilize simple geometric formulae based on a limited number of slices. We aimed to evaluate whether an automated ... -
