Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an immune dysregulation disorder affecting multiple organs. Cardiac involvement, prevalently myocardial, is associated with poor outcomes in SSc patients. Several investigations explored the role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in the diagnosis of scleroderma-related cardiomyopathy and analyzed the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic correlations utilizing CMR examinations.

The pathophysiology of myocardial injury following COVID-19 remains uncertain. COVID-HEART was a prospective, multicentre study utilising cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to characterise COVID-related myocardial injury. In this pre-specified analysis, the objectives were to examine (1) the frequency of myocardial ischaemia following COVID-19, and (2) the association between ischaemia and myocardial injury.

Background: Multiparametric cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has an emerging role in non-invasive surveillance of pediatric heart transplant recipients (PHTR). Higher myocardial T2, higher extracellular volume fraction (ECV), and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) have been associated with adverse clinical outcomes in adult heart transplant recipients. This study's purpose was to investigate the prognostic value of CMR-derived T1- and T2-mapping, ECV, and LGE for clinical outcomes in PHTR.

Background: This study aims to characterize right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction and understand the cumulative prognostic value of abnormal RV echocardiographic parameters in HF with preserved ejection fraction.

Methods And Results: Data from 809 patients in the PARAGON-HF (Prospective Comparison of Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibitor With Angiotensin-Receptor Blocker Global Outcomes in HF With Preserved Ejection Fraction) echocardiographic substudy (55% women, mean age 74±8 years) were analyzed. Correlates of RVD (defined as tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion <1.

Aims: We sought to characterize the clinical course of patients following worsening heart failure (WHF) treated in an outpatient setting and to identify factors associated with a poor response to standard of care with loop diuretics.

Methods And Results: Between September 2022 and March 2023, 44 eligible patients (mean age 66.3 years, 84% male) with ejection fraction <50% and with WHF symptoms in the preceding week treated in an outpatient setting were enrolled.
