Survivors from COVID-19 pneumonia can present with persisting multisystem involvement (lung,
pulmonary vessels, heart, muscle, red blood cells) that may negatively affect exercise …

Aims Interstitial pneumonia due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is often complicated
by severe respiratory failure. In addition to reduced lung compliance and ventilation/…

Aim: We sought to evaluate the differences in prognosis between the atrial (A-STR) and the
ventricular (V-STR) phenotypes of secondary tricuspid regurgitation. Methods. Consecutive …

Background Echocardiographic surrogates of right ventricle–to–pulmonary artery (RV-PA)
coupling have been reported to be associated with outcomes in patients with secondary …

Aims Intravenous iron therapy can improve symptoms in patients with heart failure, anaemia
and iron deficiency. The mechanisms underlying such an improvement might involve …

Background: Exercise hemodynamics can differentiate heart failure with preserved ejection
fraction (HFpEF) from noncardiac dyspnea. However, respiratory pressure swings may …

Background Among patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a
distinct hemodynamic phenotype has been recently described, ie, latent pulmonary vascular …

Aims In functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) patients, tricuspid leaflet tethering and
relatively low jet velocity could result in proximal flow geometry distortions that lead to …

Aims Exercise right heart catheterization (RHC) is considered the gold‐standard test to
diagnose heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, exercise RHC is an …

The combination of noradrenergic (reboxetine) plus antimuscarinic (oxybutynin) drugs (reb-oxy)
reduced obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity but no data are available on its effects …
