The indices of echocardiography have been estimated in 118 persons at the age of 20-89. Test-programs have been created and the method of biological age determination by echocardiography (ECHO-CG) has been elaborated. We found that there are three subpopulations in each age group people with slowing-down, mean and accelerated age changes rate. The proposed method of biological age determination includes standard generally established indices of echocardiography.

Background: Macrophage activation and polarization play pivotal roles in the inflammatory response and myocardial injury associated with myocardial infarction (MI). Modulating macrophage polarization from the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype is a promising therapeutic approach for MI. Shuxuening injection (SXNI) is extensively utilized in clinical settings for MI treatment and has demonstrated therapeutic efficacy.

Methods: We examined the quality of care (QoC) in acute heart failure (HF) patients across different regions using quality indicators (QIs) from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the American Heart Association (AHA) to evaluate QoC.
Left Atrial Markers in Diagnosing and Prognosticating Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathies: Ready for Prime Time?
Echocardiography

Department of Cardiology, Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood, Illinois, USA.
The left atrium (LA) is pivotal in cardiac hemodynamics, serving as a dynamic indicator of left ventricular (LV) compliance and diastolic function. The LA undergoes structural and functional adaptations in response to hemodynamic stress, infiltrative processes, myocardial injury, and arrhythmic triggers. Remodeling of the LA in response to these stressors directly impacts pulmonary circulation, eventually leading to pulmonary capillary involvement, pulmonary artery hypertension, and eventually right ventricular failure.

Background: The variety of shocks in neonates, if not recognized and treated immediately, is a major cause for fatality. The use of echocardiography may improve assessment and treatment, but its reference values across gestational age (GA) and birth weight (BW) are lacking. To address the information gap, this study aimed at correlating GA and BW of newborns with nonhemodynamic abnormalities, and at evaluating the usefulness of such reference values in neonates with early onset septic (EOS) -shock.

Introduction: Decreased left atrial appendage emptying velocity (LAAV) is a marker for thrombus formation. This study evaluates the association between LAAV and inflammatory indices in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients.
Methods: The study population was 1428 patients with AF, 875 of whom enrolled.
