Variations and characteristics of the various clinical phenotypes in a cohort of Nigerian sickle cell patients
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of SLU, AVN, priapism, nephropathy and the other complications of SCD show some variations from other studies. This variation in the clinical parameters across different clinical phenotypes indicates an interplay between age, genetic and environmental factors.PMID:34493173 | DOI:10.1080/16078454.2021.1972242

Right ventricular and cyclic guanosine monophosphate signalling abnormalities in stages B and C of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
ConclusionExercise CMR identifies impaired RV-arterial coupling at an early stage of HFpEF. Circulating cGMP levels phenocopy the haemodynamic spectrum in HFpEF but fail to increase after phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibition, endorsing the need for alternative interventions to increase cGMP signalling in HFpEF.

Surgical Treatment of Pulmonary Embolism and Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
Curr Pharm Des. 2021 Sep 2. doi: 10.2174/1381612827666210902152539. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTVenous thromboembolism clinically presents as deep venous thrombosis or acute pulmonary embolism and is globally recognized as the third most frequent acute cardiovascular syndrome after myocardial infarction and stroke. Although pulmonary embolism does not typically cause severe pulmonary hypertension in the acute setting, thrombus organization and fibrosis can lead to stenosis or obliteration of pulmonary arteries in a minority of patients, which in turn result in severe pulmonary hypertension and right heart failure. This d...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Cardiovascular Disease: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association
Circulation. 2021 Jun 21:CIR0000000000000988. doi: 10.1161/CIR.0000000000000988. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent complete and partial upper airway obstructive events, resulting in intermittent hypoxemia, autonomic fluctuation, and sleep fragmentation. Approximately 34% and 17% of middle-aged men and women, respectively, meet the diagnostic criteria for OSA. Sleep disturbances are common and underdiagnosed among middle-aged and older adults, and the prevalence varies by race/ethnicity, sex, and obesity status. OSA prevalence is as high as 40% to 80% in patients with ...

Combined brain/heart magnetic resonance imaging in antiphospholipid syndrome-two sides of the same coin
AbstractAntiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by arterial, venous, and/or small vessel thrombosis, pregnancy morbidity, and persistently elevated levels of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Cardiovascular disease (CVD) in APS can present as heart valvular disease (HVD), macro-micro-coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial dysfunction, cardiac thrombi, or pulmonary hypertension. Brain disease presents as stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and less frequently as cerebral venous thrombosis, seizures, cognitive dysfunction, multiple sclerosis (MS) −like syndrome, or chorea. Infarcts...

Metalloproteinases and Their Inhibitors Are Associated with Pulmonary Arterial Stiffness and Ventricular Function in Pediatric Pulmonary Hypertension
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2021 Jun 4. doi: 10.1152/ajpheart.00750.2020. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDisturbed balance between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their respective tissue inhibitors (TIMPs) is a well-recognized pathophysiologic component of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Both classes of proteases have been associated with clinical outcomes as well as with specific pathologic features of ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary arterial remodeling. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the circulating levels of MMPs and TIMPs in children with PAH undergoing the same day cardiac MRI and righ...
