Background Remote ischaemic conditioning with transient ischaemia and reperfusion
applied to the arm has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size in patients with ST-elevation …

The fourth edition of Clinical Examination provides a clear, practical and above all, superbly
illustrated guide to all aspects of history taking and patient examination. Designed to be …

Background : Prognosis in light-chain (AL) and transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis is influenced
by cardiac involvement. ATTR amyloidosis has better prognosis than AL amyloidosis …

Objectives : This study sought to assess the performance of cardiovascular magnetic resonance
(CMR) myocardial perfusion mapping against invasive coronary physiology reference …

Background Cardiogenic shock remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients
with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. We aimed to assess the current trends in …

Objectives : This study aimed to determine the effect on long-term survival of using optical
coherence tomography (OCT) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background : …

Objective: To test associations between heart rate variability (HRV), depressed mood, and
positive affect in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Depression is …

Background : A large proportion of patients presenting with non–ST-segment elevation
myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) present with multivessel disease (MVD). There is uncertainty in …

Aims Clinical trials suggest that intracoronary delivery of autologous bone marrow-derived
cells (BMCs) 1–7 days post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may improve left ventricular (LV…

Telecardiology allows for the remote specialist interpretation of electrocardiographic recordings
via telephone transmission. It has the potential to change the way cardiac care is being …
