double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial that enrolled 250 patients with New York Heart Association functional class II-IV symptoms of heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <35% could not demonstrate evidence of improved outcomes at the dose of AAV1/SERCA2 tested [...
Three months after oral amiodarone therapy was initiated for the treatment of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia detected by the CRT-D device, the patient's heart failure symptoms worsened and 12-lead electrocardiography showed newly emerged p-waves with atrioventricular (AV) dissociation. Immediately...
of the patient’s symptoms without possible other causes such as pneumonia, heart failure, and pulmonary thromboembolism. Two key elements to treat COPD exacerbation are systemic corticosteroids and antibiotics, which may provide rapid clinical and functional recovery, reduction of risk of recurrence and...

Accurate early detection of acute exacerbations will enable early management and reduce mortality. Objective The aim of this study was to develop a prediction system using lifestyle data, environmental factors, and patient symptoms for the early detection of AECOPD in the upcoming 7 days. Methods ...
Patients with acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) are a significant determinant of mortality [[5], [6], [7]]. COPD patients with the following symptoms such as increased dyspnea, coughing, and sputum production indicate AECOPD, which requires special treatment attention [[8], [9], [10]]....
