Cardiac remodeling and ventricular pacing represent intertwined phenomena with profound implications for cardiovascular health and therapeutic interventions. This review explores the intricate relationship between cardiac remodeling and ventricular pacing, spanning from the molecular underpinnings to biomechanical alterations. Beginning with an examination of genetic predispositions and cellular signaling pathways, we delve into the mechanisms driving myocardial structural changes and electrical remodeling in response to pacing stimuli. Insights into the dynamic interplay between pacing strategies and adaptive or maladaptive remodeling processes are synthesized, shedding light on the clinical implications for patients with various cardiovascular pathologies. By bridging the gap between basic science discoveries and clinical translation, this review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of cardiac remodeling in the context of ventricular pacing, paving the way for future advancements in cardiovascular care.

Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation: Definition, Mechanisms, and Treatment Perspectives.
Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Hasselt University, Faculty of Medicine and Life Sciences / Limburg Clinical Research Centre, Agoralaan, Diepenbeek, Belgium.
Purpose Of Review: This review aims to explore the complex interplay between atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR), atrial fibrillation (AF), and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The goal is to define these conditions, examine their underlying mechanisms, and discuss treatment perspectives, particularly addressing diagnostic challenges.
Recent Findings: Recent research highlights the rising prevalence of AFMR, now accounting for nearly one-third of significant mitral regurgitation cases.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) persistence is associated with molecular remodeling that fuels electrical conduction abnormalities in atrial tissue. Previous research revealed DNA damage as a molecular driver of AF.
Objectives: This study sought to explore the diagnostic value of DNA damage in atrial tissue and blood samples as an indicator of the prevalence of electrical conduction abnormalities and stage of AF.

Background: Despite a phenylalanine (Phe) restrictive diet, most adult patients with 'classical' phenylketonuria (PKU) maintain life-long Phe concentrations above the normal range and receive tyrosine (Tyr) and protein-enriched diets to maintain acceptable concentrations and ensure normal development. While these interventions are highly successful in preventing adverse neuropsychiatric complications, their long- term consequences are incompletely explored. We observed early cardiomyopathic characteristics and associated hemodynamic changes in adult PKU patients and present here the results of a longitudinal evaluation of cardiac phenotype.

Despite notable advancements in cardiovascular medicine, morbidity and mortality rates associated with myocardial infarction (MI) remain high. The unfavourable prognosis and absence of robust post-MI protocols necessitate further intervention. In this comprehensive review, we will focus on well-established and novel biomarkers that can provide insight into the processes that occur after an ischemic event.
