Cardiac output figures from 97 patients were computed by earpiece densitometry and correlated to various dimensional parameters. Stroke volume was better correlated to body dimensions than cardiac output indicating that patients undergoing right heart catheterization were not in basal state.

Background: Epidemiological surveys indicate an increasing incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among children and adolescents worldwide. Due to rapid disease progression, severe long-term cardiorenal complications, a lack of effective treatment strategies, and substantial socioeconomic burdens, it has become an urgent public health issue that requires management and resolution. Adolescent T2DM differs from adult T2DM.

Understanding the significance of handgrip strength is essential for identifying frailty in heart failure patients. The aim of this study was to identify the association between handgrip strength and cardiorespiratory endurance while highlighting the importance of the musculoskeletal system in cardiac rehabilitation for patients with heart failure. An observational cross-sectional study was conducted at Harapan Kita Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, from April 2022 to April 2023, among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) attributed to cardiomyopathy or coronary artery disease.

Previous studies have reported that angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) are superior to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) in treating heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Unfortunately, previously published studies predominantly focused on Western populations, while the data remains insufficient in developing countries. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacies of ARNI and ACEI on patients with HFrEF in Indonesia.

Objective: Globally, one in four pregnant women is classified as overweight or obese, based on their prepregnancy body mass index (BMI). Obese pregnant women are at increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and long-term cardiovascular disease that occurs earlier in life. This study aimed to assess maternal hemodynamic and vascular parameters at 35-37 weeks' gestation, to understand the alterations that may occur in association with increased maternal BMI and gestational weight gain, and to evaluate obesity-related pregnancy outcomes.

Purpose: Resting beat-to-beat blood pressure variability is a strong predictor of cardiovascular events and mortality. However, its underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Given that the sympathetic nervous system plays a pivotal role in cardiovascular regulation, we hypothesized that alpha-1 adrenergic receptors (the main sympathetic receptor controlling peripheral vasoconstriction) may contribute to resting beat-to-beat blood pressure variability.
