Published: April 2024

Functional mitral regurgitation appears commonly among all heart failure phenotypes and can affect symptom burden and degree of maladaptive remodeling. Transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair therapies recently became an important part of the routine heart failure armamentarium for carefully selected and medically optimized candidates. Patient selection is considering heart failure staging, relevant comorbidities, as well as anatomic criteria. Indications and device platforms are currently expanding.

Background: The impact of iron deficiency on COPD morbidity independent of anemia status is unknown. Understanding the association between iron deficiency, anemia status, and risk of hospitalization in COPD may inform an approach to these comorbidities.

Study Design And Methods: Adults ≥40 years from the Johns Hopkins COPD Precision Medicine Center of Excellence data repository with an outpatient iron profile and 1 year of subsequent follow-up time were included in the study.

chitinase-like protein orchestrates cyst wall glycosylation to facilitate effector export and cyst turnover.

bradyzoites reside in tissue cysts that undergo cycles of expansion, rupture, and release to foster chronic infection. The glycosylated cyst wall acts as a protective barrier, although the processes responsible for formation, remodeling, and turnover are not understood. Herein, we identify a noncanonical chitinase-like enzyme TgCLP1 that localizes to micronemes and is targeted to the cyst wall after secretion.

Background: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) is an important complication in the treatment of heart failure, and its treatment has not made satisfactory progress. Nitroxyl (HNO) showed protective effects on the heart failure, however, the effect and underlying mechanism of HNO on MIRI remain largely unclear.

Methods: MIRI model in this study was established to induce H9C2 cell injury through hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) in vitro.
