Physical and cognitive deficits often coexist as comorbidities in individuals with chronic heart failure (CHF). Commonly used in clinical settings, the 6-minute walking test (6MWT), Timed-Up and Go (TUG) and the 10m walking speed (WS) are functional tests that have demonstrated associations ...

heart failure (CHF), but despite the presence of clinical signs of valvular endocarditis, cases may not be diagnosed until postmortem examination.1,4,5Acquired basilar systolic heart murmurs can be associated with endocarditic lesions on either of the semilunar valves, with the aortic valve being...
All continuous values are given in mean ± standard deviation unless stated otherwise.ACE, angiotensin‐converting enzyme; BMI, body mass index; BP, blood pressure; CHF, chronic heart failure; HFmrEF, heart failure with mid...
Context. Approximately half of patients with overt congestive heart failure (CHF) have diastolic dysfunction without reduced ejection fraction (EF). Yet,
Chronic (systolic) heart failure (CHF) is a common and disabling condition. Adherence to evidence-based guidelines in primary care has been shown to improve health outcomes. The aim was to explore the impact of a multidisciplinary educational intervention for general practitioners (GPs) (Train the...
We chose to include patients with CHF because the precise underlying pathophysiologic cause of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is still debated, and abnormalities in these patients include abnormal left ventricular systolic properties; ventricular-arterial coupling; left ventricular diastolic ...

We studied post-extrasystolic potentiation (PESP) and frequency potentiation (FP) of human working myocardium isolated from the ventricles of 10 patients with end-stage heart failure (CHF) and 17 non-failing controls (CTL). The contractility index was peak isometric tension developed in vitro by...
