Background: Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Aims: This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near-to-normal N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels with regard to early stages of HFpEF and non-cardiac causes.

The rapid global spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has resulted in millions of infections and deaths, particularly impacting older adults. This study systematically analyzes risk factors reported in different geographical regions such as Asia and Europe that are associated with adverse outcomes in older adults with COVID-19. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, we searched five databases up to December 2023 and conducted meta-analyses of odds ratios for 27 risk factors reported in at least two studies using R software (version 4.

Background: Chest pain is one of the most common reasons for emergency department (ED) visits. Patients presenting with inconclusive symptoms complicate the diagnostic process and add to the burden upon the ED. This study aimed to determine factors possibly influencing ED decisions on hospitalization versus discharge for patients with the diagnosis of chest pain.
