Myocardial recovery is characterized by a return toward normal structure and function of the heart after an injury. Mechanisms of myocardial recovery include restoration and/or adaptation of myocyte structure and function, mitochondrial activity and number, metabolic homeostasis, electrophysiological stability, extracellular matrix remodeling, and myocardial perfusion. Myocardial regeneration is an element of myocardial recovery that involves the generation of new myocardial tissue, a process which is limited in adult humans but may be therapeutically augmented. Understanding the mechanisms of myocardial recovery and myocardial regeneration will lead to novel therapies for heart failure.

Background: Previous studies have identified sarcopenia as a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, these studies primarily focused on sarcopenia status at baseline, without considering changes in sarcopenia status during follow-up. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between changes in sarcopenia status and the incidence of new-onset cardiovascular disease.

Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (A-AAD) with severe acute aortic regurgitation (AR) and coronary involvement is a potentially fatal condition that causes left ventricular volume overload and catastrophic acute myocardial infarction. We present the successful management of a patient using Impella 5.5 following cardiopulmonary arrest caused by A-AAD with severe acute AR and left main trunk (LMT) obstruction.

Introduction: Aluminum phosphide is a cheap and commonly used rodenticide that is also an effective solid fumigant and frequently used for grain preservation. The pill contains around 44% inert elements (ammonium carbonate) to avoid disintegration of the tablet, while the rest (about 56%) is aluminum phosphide. Because it is freely available on the market, it is one of the commonly used agents for self-poisoning in different parts of the developing world.

Background: Coronary Artery Spasm (CAS) often presents in the epicardial coronary arteries. The anterior septal branch is distributed within the myocardium, and occurrences of spasms are rare. Currently, there is no available literature on this topic, and the onset of symptoms remains elusive, potentially leading to misdiagnosis.
