Background/objectives: Differential diagnosis of sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains challenging, particularly in cases lacking evident structural abnormalities. Cardiac markers have been proposed as useful tools for this differentiation in forensic contexts.

Objectives: To our knowledge, there is no clear consensus on a definitive cardiac rehabilitation method for patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG).

Methods: We carried out a systematic search of the databases PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar.

Hypertension is a major risk factor of various cardiac complications, including hypertensive heart disease (HHD). This condition can lead to a number of structural and functional changes in the heart, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction, and, eventually, systolic dysfunction. In the management of hypertensive heart disease, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial for preventing the progression to congestive heart failure.
