Outcomes of patients with hypertensive heart disease and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) at a tertiary centre in South Africa
… study of patients diagnosed with HF with reduced and mid-range ejection fraction (HFrEF and HFmrEF) secondary to HHD, seen at the Cardiomyopathy Clinic at Groote Schuur Hospital over a threeyear period. Ethics approval was obtained (HREC REF 677/2018). Results. A total of 59 patients were …

A Pilot Study: Observations of Patients Participating in Heart Failure Shared Medical Appointments while Receiveing Nutrition Education
… in this group had a diagnosis of HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), and two patients had a diagnosis of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Average weights of the participants ranged from 171.4 lbs to 339.6lbs. Quality of life (QOL) for this group of patients was diverse, …

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
… in the management of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Its clinical efficacy is well-established, primarily attributed to its effects on diuresis and hemodynamic unloading. However, despite its widespread use and therapeutic success, the precise mechanisms through …

Identification and Characterization of the Role of REEP5 in Sarco-Endoplasmic Reticulum Formation, Maintenance, and Function in Cardiac Muscle
… dysfunction with dilated cardiac chambers and reduced ejection fraction. Altogether, these results demonstrated 1. Our cardiomyocyte membrane proteome dataset proves instrumental to studies aimed at characterizing novel regulators of heart function and identifying potential heart disease …

The Role of Metabolic Inflexibility in Heart Failure
… simultaneously, a type of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) ensues. HFpEF is distinct from HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and diabetes in clinical presentation and physiology, necessitating alternative treatments. Understanding metabolic alterations which contribute to …

Lrg1 in preeclampsia and heart failure: role as a biomarker and mediator of disease
… the expression of LRG1 from trophoblast cells is reduced in hypoxia and this reduction is exacerbated in hyperglycaemic conditions. This is coupled with a reduction of PPARβ/δ, although PPARβ/δ does not seem to act downstream of LRG1 in trophoblasts. The mechanism of LRG1 reduction was found not …

Die Bedeutung des löslichen (Pro)Reninrezeptors als Biomarker für Patienten mit Herzinsuffizienz
Zielstellung: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wollten wir evaluieren (1) ob der lösliche Prorenin-rezeptor bei Patienten mit chronischer Herzinsuffizienz dysreguliert ist (2) ob die Art und das Ausmaß dieser Dysregulation den Einsatz des sPRR als potenzielles Biomarkers der Herzinsuffizienz zulässt. …
