Several studies have shown that HF is associated with increased circulating levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Cytokines are low-molecular weight proteins that are released by most cell types ...

Three conditions that affect the heart are also linked to impaired brain function and increased dementia risk, according to a ...

Findings from the TAVR UNLOAD study found limited benefits of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the treatment ...

Researchers have found that using a machine learning-based method, it is possible to identify individuals with diabetes who ...

This relationship is also influenced by complex mechanisms such as neurohormonal activation and systemic inflammation, both of which can accelerate cognitive decline in the presence of heart disease.

Findings from the TAVR UNLOAD study found limited benefits of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the treatment of heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and moderate ...

and/or neurohormonal activation, as determined by higher NT-proBNP, derive greater net benefit from intensive BP lowering (augmented reduction in CV mortality/HF risk). Grant Title: Action for Health ...

Reduced blood flow can cause mini-strokes or silent brain injuries. Chronic inflammation and neurohormonal activation, which work to maintain the brain's environment, may also contribute to brain ...
