Background: The abnormal levels of many circulating biomarkers have been reported in chronic heart failure (CHF). However, it is largely unknown whether biomarker levels are different between systolic heart failue (SHF) and diastolic heart failure (DHF) because most studies were conducted in SHF. ...
The pulse arrival time (PAT), the difference between the R-peak time of electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and the systolic peak of photoplethysmography (PPG) signal, is an indicator that enables noninvasive and continuous blood pressure estimation. However, it is difficult to accurately measure PAT f...
Management of congestive heart failure: a gender gap may still exist. Observations from a contemporary cohort Background Unlike other cardiovascular diseases the incidence and prevalence of congestive heart failure (CHF) continues to increase. While gender differen...

Comparison of the eGFR and serum indoxyl sulfate level between that before and after CA. The black colored words and figure show the patients with non-CKD, and the red colored words and figure show the patients with CKD. The Diagonal lined figures represent one year after the catheter ablation...

9. May protect heart during chemo Doxorubicin, which is sold under the brand name Adriamycin, is one of the most common chemotherapy medications. Unfortunately it has dangerous side effect of heart damage (dilated cardiomyopathy) which can even lead tocongestive heart failure (CHF). ...
The second set of analyses examined the relationship between baseline VT scores and other outcomes at baseline, 1year, and 7year follow-up.Results: VT scores were significantly reduced in patients with anemia [5 points (95% CI 2–9 points)], CHF [6 (3–9) points], and COPD [6 (3–...
The key difference between CHF and pulmonary edema is that CHF is a condition that occurs when the heart fails to pump enough blood to give the body a norm
the heart. Moreover, COPD is mainly caused by smoking, whereas CHF is mainly caused by other conditions such as coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart issues, diabetes, high blood pressure, arrhythmia, kidney disease, etc. This summarizes the difference between COPD and CHF. ...
EF was not significantly different between women and men. The cumulative incidence of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for congestive heart failure (CHF) was significantly lower in women than in men (log-rank p =0.040). Women with HFpEF were older and less often exhibited an ischemic ...
