Background: Heart failure (HF) and cancer share common risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms, including fibrosis. Identifying biomarkers and therapeutic targets for both conditions is crucial.
Materials And Methods: RNA sequencing data from HF patients were analyzed to identify 12 genes associated with myocardial fibrosis. Validation was performed using public datasets, and functional enrichment analyses were conducted. Gene expression patterns and prognostic value in various cancers were assessed.
Results: Fibromodulin (FMOD), Periostin (POSTN), Latent Transforming Growth Factor Beta Binding Protein 2 (LTBP2), Collagen Type I Alpha 1 Chain (COL1A1), Collagen Type VIII Alpha 1 Chain (COL8A1), Asporin (ASPN), and Hemoglobin Subunit Beta (HBB) showed significant dysregulation in heart failure tissues and were implicated in multiple cancer types. Pan-cancer analysis revealed associations between these genes and prognosis. Correlations with cancer-associated fibroblasts were also observed.
Conclusion: FMOD, POSTN, LTBP2, COL1A1, COL8A1, ASPN, and HBB are potential biomarkers for HF and cancer with fibrotic microenvironments. Targeting fibrosis may offer novel therapeutic approaches. Further validation and mechanistic studies are needed. This study contributes to understanding HF and cancer at the molecular level and suggests personalized treatment strategies.

Importance: The integration of patient-reported outcome (PRO) assessments in cardiovascular care has encountered considerable obstacles despite their established clinical relevance.
Objective: To assess the impact of a physician- and patient-friendly electronic PRO (ePRO) monitoring system on the quality of cardiovascular care in clinical practice.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This open-label, multicenter, pilot randomized clinical trial was phase 2 of a multiphase study that was conducted from October 2022 to October 2023 and focused on the implementation and evaluation of an ePRO monitoring system in outpatient clinics in Japan.

Right heart catheterization (RHC) provides critical hemodynamic insights by measuring atrial, ventricular, and pulmonary artery pressures, as well as cardiac output (CO). Although the use of RHC has decreased, its application has been linked to improved outcomes. Advanced hemodynamic markers such as cardiac power output (CPO), aortic pulsatility index (API), pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi), right atrial pressure to pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ratio (RAP/PCWP) and right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) have been introduced to enhance risk stratification in cardiogenic shock (CS) and end-stage heart failure (HF) patients.

Purpose Of Review: Our purpose was to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of various noninvasive imaging modalities in the evaluation of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs). The detailed knowledge of imaging modalities will facilitate the diagnosis and follow up of CVD in ARDs.
Recent Findings: Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases (ARDs) are characterized by alterations in immunoregulatory system of the body.

Respiratory tract infections with influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and respiratory syncytial (RS) viruses and pneumococci as well as endogenous reactivation of varicella zoster viruses presenting as herpes zoster, are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, such as myocardial infarction or hospitalization for heart failure. Effective prevention of these events, particularly through influenza and pneumococcal vaccination, is well established and cost-effective. Despite guideline recommendations to vaccinate older patients and people at risk, vaccination rates in these population groups remain suboptimal and below average in international comparison.

Combination of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure (HF) results in extremely high morbidity and mortality. The current guideline-directed medical therapy is rarely effective and new therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. The study was designed to examine if renal denervation (RDN) will exhibit long-standing beneficial effects on the HF- and CKD-related morbidity and mortality.
