Introduction: Unmet health care needs are seen as a key indicator of equity in access to health care. With younger people, they can lead to poorer health outcomes in adulthood, and in older people they can be associated with an increased risk of mortality. The presence of a disability is considered a risk factor for unmet needs.

Article Synopsis
- Cardiac symptoms can affect individuals who had mild COVID-19 and no prior heart issues, and cardiac MRI can detect these hidden issues linked to long-term heart problems.
- This study tests a new treatment combining low-dose prednisolone and losartan against a placebo in people with post-COVID heart inflammation, with assessments like cardiac MRI and exercise testing.
- The main goal is to see if the treatment improves left ventricular ejection fraction after 16 weeks, while also monitoring changes in symptoms and safety over a year for 280 participants.
Article Synopsis
- Extensive research has shown that cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is effective for diagnosing and monitoring cardiovascular diseases but is underused in clinical settings due to reimbursement issues.
- A survey of 144 healthcare professionals revealed that while respondents recognized social impacts and some CMR benefits, significant gaps in knowledge about its full capabilities and advantages were present.
- Despite these gaps, there was a positive attitude towards CMR, with many participants willing to travel and pay for the procedure, indicating a need for better awareness and educational strategies to enhance its use in healthcare.
