Background: Observational data have suggested that patients with moderate to severe ischemia benefit from revascularization. However, this was not confirmed in a large, randomized trial.
Objectives: Using a contemporary, multicenter registry, the authors evaluated differences in the association between quantitative ischemia, revascularization, and outcomes across important subgroups.
Background: Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy characterized by systemic endothelial dysfunction. The pathophysiology of preeclampsia remains incompletely understood. This study used human venous endothelial cell (EC) transcriptional profiling to investigate potential novel mechanisms underlying EC dysfunction in preeclampsia.

The aim of this study was to evaluate their performance in diagnosing ATTR-CM in a diverse patient cohort.
Methods: This retrospective single-center study analyzed patients who underwent a 99mTc-pyrophosphate single photon emission computed tomography scan (Tc-PYP) for workup of suspected ATTR-CM.
