Radiation-associated coronary artery disease (RACAD) is a distinct form of coronary artery disease with several specific biological and clinical aspects as well as key knowledge gaps. RACAD is ...

We performed whole‐genome sequencing on 151 patients with sporadic Stanford type B AD and 965 healthy controls in a Chinese population as a discovery phase analysis to assess both common and rare ...

Referrals to and participation in cardiac rehabilitation programs remain suboptimal. We examined factors associated with home‐based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) referral and participation and ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is a heterogeneous syndrome, and comorbid obstructive sleep apnea further increases the risk of acute coronary syndrome. However, effective tools for ...

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an important contributor to the global burden of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies have reported an association with extremes in temperature in the hours and days ...

The prevalence, anatomic distribution, enhancement patterns, and prognostic value of nonischemic late gadolinium enhancement (NI‐LGE) in patients with prior myocardial infarction were not ...

Life‐threatening ventricular arrhythmias (LTVAs) can occur in individuals without apparent structural heart disease, yet the cardiometabolic and inflammatory determinants remain unclear. We aimed to ...
