Analysis of recurrent rejection (RR) in paediatric heart transplant recipients revealed that 17% of the population studied experienced RR.

A RECENT study found that multimodal, personalised teleprehabilitation significantly reduced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

New research has demonstrated that stationary behaviour, specifically prolonged sitting, is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and orthostatic circulatory disease.

New research has shown that nonstandard arm positions during blood pressure measurements significantly overestimate systolic and diastolic BP

COVID-19 vaccination is associated with a transient increase in cardiovascular risks, but complete vaccination significantly reduces the risk of more severe cardiovascular events.

Adults with epilepsy face double the risk of cardiovascular events, with enzyme-inducing antiseizure medications contributing significantly to this increased risk.

The venous excess ultrasound score improves mortality prediction in acute heart failure patients, offering a better assessment of venous congestion than traditional methods.

A study reveals a J-shaped link between mean heart rate and 30-day mortality in older ICU patients with sepsis. The lowest risk was observed for heart rates between 73 and 82 bpm,
