Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in China, with its morbidity and mortality continue to rise. Ferroptosis, a unique form of iron-dependent cell death, plays a major role in many heart diseases. The classical mechanisms of ferroptosis include iron metabolism disorder, oxidative antioxidant imbalance and lipid peroxidation. Recent studies have found many additional mechanisms of ferroptosis, such as coenzyme Q10, ferritinophagy, lipid autophagy, mitochondrial metabolism disorder, and the regulation by nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). This article reviews recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of ferroptosis and its role in heart failure, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, diabetic cardiomyopathy, myocardial toxicity of doxorubicin, septic cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmia. Furthermore, we discuss the potential of ferroptosis inhibitors/inducers as therapeutic targets for heart diseases, suggesting that ferroptosis may be an important intervention target of heart diseases.

Sex differences in the risk factors, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of patients with cardiovascular disease have been well described; however, the bulk of the literature has focused on heart disease in women. Data on sex differences in peripheral vascular disease are ill defined, and there is a need to report and understand those sex-related differences to mitigate adverse outcomes related to those disparities. Although peripheral vascular disease is a highly diverse group of disorders affecting the arteries, veins, and lymphatics, this scientific statement focuses on disorders affecting the peripheral arteries to include the aorta and its branch vessels.

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a major health concern globally, contributing to a considerable disease burden. However, few studies have considered long-term cumulative blood pressure (cBP) exposure in middle-aged and older population in China. The aim of this study was to investigate whether long-term cBP was associated with subsequent cardiovascular outcomes among participants without CVD at baseline in Chinese over 45 years old.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) significantly impact athletes, impacting the heart and blood vessels. This article introduces a novel method to assess CVD in athletes through an artificial neural network (ANN). The model utilises the mutual learning-based artificial bee colony (ML-ABC) algorithm to set initial weights and proximal policy optimisation (PPO) to address imbalanced classification.

Background: Muscle proteins of the obscurin protein family play important roles in sarcomere organization and sarcoplasmic reticulum and T-tubule architecture and function. However, their precise molecular functions and redundancies between protein family members as well as their involvement in cardiac diseases remain to be fully understood.
Methods: To investigate the functional roles of Obsc (obscurin) and its close homolog Obsl1 (obscurin-like 1) in the heart, we generated and analyzed knockout mice for , , as well as double knockouts.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) frequently coexist and mutually influence each other. The association between AF and the subtype of HF, Ischaemic heart failure (IHF), remains insufficiently described, despite their high prevalence. Hence, comprehending their underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and identifying new therapeutic targets are urgently needed.
