13. Importance of epicardial adipose tissue as a predictor of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Epicardial adipose tissue is a special form of visceral fat surrounding the heart. It is associated with cardiac and metabolic diseases. Epicardial adipose tissue is associated with risk factors for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and diabetes. In this study, we examined t

14. The Role of the Immune System on the Cardiac Complications Observed in SARS-CoV-2
Abstract An acute respiratory syndrome caused by SARS-CoV2 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. Current data in the world and in Brazil show that approximately 40% of patients who died have some type of cardiac comorbidity. There are also robust reports showing an increase in IL-6 / IL-1B / TNF-alpha and the presence of lymphopenia in pa

15. Physical Training Improves Cardiac Structure and Function of Rats After Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiomyopathy
Abstract Background: The use of doxorubicin in chemotherapy has been associated with cardiotoxicity and heart failure. Physical exercise produces favorable morphofunctional adaptations in the cardiovascular system and may reverse cardiac dysfunction in patients undergoing chemotherapy. Objective: To assess the effects of physical training on myocardial str

16. Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy Without Circulatory Arrest
Abstract Introduction: Here we describe our technique and results of beating heart pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in four patients for treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Methods: Retrospective analysis of data from patients who underwent PTE for CTEPH between January 2019 and Septemb

17. Use of CentriMag for refractory cardiogenic shock in a puerperal woman: case report
ABSTRACT CONTEXT: Heart failure in Brazil is a major public health problem and, even with advances in treatment, it still presents high morbidity and mortality. As a treatment option, mechanical circulatory assist devices (MCADs) have greatly increased in importance over the last decade. CASE REPORT: This report concerns a case of refractory cardiogenic

18. When an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator can Kill your Patient!
Abstract Inappropriate therapy due to noise oversensing caused a true ventricular fibrillation (VF) and a life-threatening event in a patient. A 19-year-old patient with surgically corrected congenital heart disease and systolic dysfunction had an implantable cardioverter defibrillator implanted for primary prevention in 2013. This patient was admitted at th

19. Sgarbossa Criteria in Left Bundle Branch Block in a Hypertensive Emergency, a Case Report
Abstract Left bundle branch block and hypertensive emergency are very common conditions in clinical cardiovascular and emergency practice. Hypertensive emergency encompasses a spectrum of clinical presentations in which uncontrolled blood pressure leads to progressive end-organ dysfunction. Suspected acute myocardial infarction in the setting of a left bundl

20. Practical Approach to Acute Coronary Syndrome in Patients with COVID-19
Abstract Acute cardiac injury is associated with higher mortality in patients with the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and the exact etiology can be challenging to diagnose in the emergency setting during the pandemic. From a pathophysiological perspective, SARS-CoV-2 infection is characterized by an overproduction of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6,

24. Low expression of microRNA-328 can predict sepsis and alleviate sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction and inflammatory response
Sepsis often leads to cardiac dysfunction and inflammation. This study investigated the clinical value of microRNA-328 (miR-328) in sepsis and its role in cardiac dysfunction and inflammation caused by sepsis. The expression level of miR-328 in the serum of the subjects was detected by qRT-PCR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve measured the diagn
