Article Synopsis
- - The study evaluated cardiologists' awareness and implementation of advanced heart failure (HF) guidelines, revealing significant knowledge gaps, especially among general cardiologists and other participants compared to heart failure specialists.
- - An online survey collected data from 497 cardiologists across Europe, highlighting that 84% of heart failure cardiologists regularly used ESC/HFA criteria for advanced HF, while only 44% of general cardiologists did.
- - The findings emphasize the need for increased education on advanced HF guidelines and improvements in the referral process to ensure patients receive timely and appropriate care.

Article Synopsis
- Impaired left ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC) is linked to worse outcomes in heart disease and heart failure (HF), and this study seeks to understand its relationship with specific proteins related to HF.
- Researchers examined data from 1,309 participants in the STANISLAS family cohort, analyzing how 32 HF-related proteins correlate with VAC measured through pulse wave velocity (PWV) and global longitudinal strain (GLS).
- Results showed that elevated levels of proteins like MMP-2 and NT-proBNP were associated with better VAC, suggesting that these proteins may play a role in the heart's compensatory mechanisms during cardiac stress.
