Current guidelines recommend using sequential cardiac imaging to monitor for cancer treatment-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) in patients undergoing potentially cardiotoxic chemotherapy. Multiple different imaging cardiac modalities are available and there are few prospective head-to-head comparative studies to help guide treatment. To perform an exploratory prospective cohort study of "rea...
Population trends in the incidence and outcomes of atrial fibrillation presentations to emergency departments in Victoria, Australia.
HEART RHYTHM - 01 May 2024
Salt sensitivity risk derived from nocturnal dipping and 24-h heart rate predicts long-term blood pressure reduction following renal denervation.
JOURNAL OF HYPERTENSION - 01 May 2024
Renal denervation (RDN) has been consistently shown in recent sham-controlled clinical trials to reduce blood pressure (BP). Salt sensitivity is a critical factor in hypertension pathogenesis, but cumbersome to assess by gold-standard methodology. Twenty-four-hour average heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) dipping, taken by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), stratifies p...

Associations of chronic kidney disea...
Characterizing the influence of cardiorespiratory fitness on left atrial size and function in the general population.
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY. HEART AND CIRCULATORY PHYSIOLOGY - 01 May 2024
Increased left atrial (LA) size and reduced LA function have been associated with heart failure and atrial fibrillation (AF) in at-risk populations. However, atrial remodeling has also been associated with exercise training and the relationship between fitness, LA size, and function has not been defined across the fitness spectrum. In a cross-sectional study of 559 ostensibly healthy participan...

Not enough known about fenofibrate's kidney effects in people with Type 2 diabetes.
DIABETES RESEARCH AND CLINICAL PRACTICE - 01 Apr 2024
Globally ≈10% of adults have diabetes, with 80% in disadvantaged regions, hence low-cost renoprotective agents are desirable. Fenofibrate demonstrated microvascular benefits in several cardiovascular end-point diabetes trials, but knowledge of effects in late-stage kidney disease is limited. We report new FIELD substudy data and call for further kidney outcomes data.
