Background: Right ventricular (RV) fibrosis is an important pathological change that occurs during the development of right heart failure (RHF) induced by pulmonary hypertension (PH). Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, has been shown to play a major role in left heart failure, but it is unclear whether it has a positive effect on RHF. This study aimed to clarify the effect of DAPA on PH-induced RHF and investigate the underlying mechanisms.

Background: Myocardial work (MW) indices and longitudinal strain (LS) are sensitive markers of early left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Stress computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) can assess early myocardial ischemia. The association between resting MW indices and stress myocardial perfusion remains unclear.

We demonstrate the recently proposed nucleon energy-energy correlator (NEEC) f_{EEC}(x,θ) can unveil the gluon saturation in the small-x regime in eA collisions. The novelty of this probe is that it is fully inclusive just like the deep-inelastic scattering (DIS), with no requirements of jets or hadrons but still provides an evident portal to the small-x dynamics through the shape of the θ distribution. We find that the saturation prediction is significantly different from the expectation of the collinear factorization.
