Heart failureInteractionMonitoringOutcomesTroponinPurpose of review:To review the role of cardiac troponin (cTn) for prognosis in acute and chronic heart failure, and for predicting heart failure; and to explore the association between troponin and response to heart failure therapies, with an eye ...
Heart Failure (HF) is one of the leading problems in cardiology practice today. Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is a significant caus
HF management not only blocks the destructive RAS pathways as described above, but also aims to simultaneously augment beneficial neuro-humoral systems to restore imbalance through ‘neuro-humoral modulation.’ The angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor, LCZ696, is a novel therapy examined in PARADIGM...

Introduction HF emerges as an important contributor to global morbidity and mortality in both men and women, despite advancements in medical and device-based treatments. It is responsible for 35% of cardiovascular-...
This paper further argues that family physicians may play a significant role in this process, and it outlines the most significant knowledge and skills that family physicians need in order to accomplish this important task. 2. Heart Failure (HF): Clinical Aspects The signs and symptoms most ...
A drug that combines valsartan with the neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril RASi drugs act on the hormone system that helps regulate your blood pressure. 3/ 16 Beta-Blockers Often prescribed early on for high blood pressure or after a heart attack, a beta-blocker is essential for stage C chronic...
role in neurodegeneration and impact clinical AD progression. The upstream modulators of these pathological features have not been fully clarified, but recent evidence indicates that the gut microbiome (GMB) may have an influence on these features and therefore may influence AD progression in human ...

The link with ACEIs and ARBs is because of the known association between angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and SARS-CoV-2. ACE2 has been shown4to be a co-receptor for viral entry for SARS-CoV-2 with increasing evidence that it has a protracted role in the pathogenesis of COVID-...
Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) by administration of either an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) or a direct renin inhibitor (DRI) similarly reduces blood pressure (BP) when each is us
