Background Hypertension is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, dementia and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Objective To develop and validate a 10-year predictive model for cardiovascular and metabolic disease (CVMD) risk using ...

Introduction Atrial fibrosis identified on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has been proposed as a preprocedural ...

Background Left ventricular mass (LVM) is suggested to be a sensitive predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, such as ...

Background Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) is a severe and fatal complication of uncorrected congenital heart disease characterised ...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and CT imaging plays a crucial role in its diagnosis and management. However, the clinical use of CT is ...

Objective To test the effectiveness of an impedance cardiography (ICG) guided treatment strategy on improving blood pressure (BP) control in real-world clinical practice. Design A single-centre, ...

Background The long-term effects of myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination on cardiac function and symptoms remain unclear. Purpose To assess the long-term effects of myocarditis following ...

Background Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a common cause of cardiovascular mortality, often triggered by ventricular arrhythmias in the setting of myocardial vulnerability. The wearable ...

Background Though undiagnosed in many patients, especially those with cryptogenic stroke, atrial fibrillation (AF) is a key cause of ischaemic stroke. By allowing extended cardiac monitoring, ...

Objective This meta-analysis aims to compare the clinical outcomes of the no-touch (NT) and conventional (CON) vein harvesting techniques in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Background Myocarditis is a rare but potentially serious complication of COVID-19 vaccination. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging can identify cardiac scar ...
