Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to identify specific metabolomic and structural markers related to left ventricular (LV) remodeling in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) caused by ischemia and a low ejection fraction (EF).
  • The research involved comparing 56 CHF patients with 50 control patients, measuring various amino acids and acylcarnitines, alongside echocardiographic assessments over 6 months.
  • Results showed that CHF patients had lower levels of certain amino acids and higher levels of acylcarnitines, with specific markers significantly influencing long-term LV remodeling outcomes.

The Siberian moth, Dendrolimus sibiricus is a dangerous forest defoliator, the number one pest of boreal forests in Asia. Search for effective and ecologically friendly control measures drives attention to microbial pathogens. Viruses and microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites widespread in insect populations causing either chronic or acute infections.

Aim: To assess the levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and miRNA-34a expression in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and obstructive and nonobstructive coronary artery (CA) disease.

Material And Methods: This cross-sectional observational study included 64 patients with IHD (diagnosis verified by coronary angiography or multislice computed tomography coronary angiography), of which 33 (51.6%) were men aged 64.

The Siberian moth, Tschetv., 1908 (Lepidoptera: Lasiocampidae) is a conifer pest that causes unprecedented forest mortality in Northern Asia, leading to enormous ecological and economic losses. This is the first study summarizing data on the parasitoid diversity and parasitism of this pest over the last 118 years (1905-2022).

Background: Progressive myocardial remodeling (MR) in chronic heart failure (CHF) leads to aggravation of systolic dysfunction (SD) and clinical manifestations. Identification of metabolomic markers of these processes may help in the search for new therapeutic approaches aimed at achieving reversibility of MR and improving prognosis in patients with CHF.

Methods: To determine the relationship between plasma acylcarnitine (ACs) levels, MR parameters and clinical characteristics, in patients with CHF of ischemic etiology (n = 79) and patients with coronary heart disease CHD (n = 19) targeted analysis of 30 ACs was performed by flow injection analysis mass spectrometry.
