CHANGES IN VE/VCO2 SLOPE OVER TIME IN LVAD RECIPIENTS
… patients with heart failure (HF), including left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) recipients. Peak oxygen uptake (pVO2) and VE/VCO2 slope are key prognostic parameters, but their values after LVAD implantation and relationship with right ventricular (RV) dysfunction remain poorly understood. …

The Relationship of Resting Cardiopulmonary Function to Peak and Submaximal Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Older Adults with Heart Failure
… a challenging disease that affects more than five million people, half of whom are at least 75 years old. Peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), the minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2) slope, and the 6MWT are powerful prognostic indicators of all-cause mortality and …

The effects of obesity and surgically-induced weight loss on exercise ventilation: influence of central adiposity and serum leptin
Truncal adiposity impairs ventilation in obese adults by altering normal ventilatory mechanics. Leptin, an inflammatory adipocytokine, is elevated in obesity and has been shown to alter ventilatory responses to exercise. Leptin’s bioavailability appears to be regulated by its soluble receptor …

EFFECTS OF DAPAGLIFLOZIN ON EXERCISE CAPACITY, RESPIRATORY FUNCTION, BIOMARKERS, SLEEP APNEA, AND LEFT VENTRICULAR REMODELING IN PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE: A PROSPECTIVE, SINGLE CENTER, NON RANDOMIZED STUDY
… on diuresis and hemodynamic unloading. However, despite its widespread use and therapeutic success, the precise mechanisms through which dapagliflozin exerts its beneficial effects remain incompletely understood. Current research is focused on elucidating the broader physiological pathways …
