The number of people with heart failure (HF) is increasing worldwide, and the social burden as HF has high mortality morbidity. We aimed to provide updated trends on epidemiology in Korea shape future measures against HF.
Mavacamten has shown promise in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM); however, real-world evidence is limited Asians. We aimed to provide the first multicenter, analysis of mavacamten use Korea. This prospective observational study included symptomatic oHCM patients treated at 7 tertiary hospitals Changes key parameters, including left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradients, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and New York Heart Association functional class...
The prevention of subsequent cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an essential part cancer survivorship care. We conducted the present study to investigate association between TyG index (a surrogate marker insulin resistance) and risk events in survivors.Adult patients, who underwent routine health examinations during 2009-2010 were survived for more than 5 years as January 1, 2011, followed hospitalization CVD (either ischemic heart disease, stroke, or failure) until December 2020. Cox model was...
Background Cardiovascular disease is an important cause of mortality among survivors breast cancer (BC). We developed a prediction model for major adverse cardiovascular events after BC therapy, which based on conventional and treatment‐related risk factors. Methods Results The cohort the study consisted 1256 Asian female patients with from 4 medical centers in Korea was randomized 1:1 ratio into derivation validation cohorts. outcome measures comprised mortality, myocardial infarction,...
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are at greater risk of bone fractures than nondiabetics. However, the factors for in patients have not been fully evaluated. This study was designed to evaluate relative frequency different sites and diabetes-associated that affect nontraumatic fracture diabetes.This retrospective case-control recruited 144 diabetes, who presented between March 2004 2009 150 age-, gender-, body mass index (BMI)- duration diabetes-matched control subjects. Nontraumatic...
Home blood pressure (BP) monitoring offers clinically relevant information enriched with more abundant data. However, there are few studies addressing the reliability of home BP devices and quality its This study aimed to evaluate current status in terms validation accuracy.Hypertensive patients automated upper arm-type were consecutively enrolled. First, each device was assessed through website. Next, accuracy individual evaluated by comparing mean values between a mercury sphygmomanometer....
Objective We aimed to identify the following in all age groups among individuals without known hypertension and CVD: (1) Whether a systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 130–139 mm Hg elevates cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. (2) SBP shows linear association with cause-specific CVD Methods used Korean National Health Insurance sample data (n=429 220). Participants were categorised into three by (40–59 years, 60–69 years 70–80 years). Results During 10.4 follow-up, 4319 deaths occurred. A...
Current heart failure (HF) guidelines recommend a multidisciplinary approach, discharge education, and self-management for HF. However, the recommendations are challenging to implement in real-world clinical settings.
Abstract The prevention and management of cancer therapy‐related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) have become increasingly important. Recent studies revealed the crucial role genetics in determining susceptibility to development CTRCD. We present a case 65‐year‐old woman with breast who developed recurrent CTRCD following low‐dose chemotherapy, despite lacking conventional cardiovascular risk factors. Her medical history included anthracycline‐associated cardiomyopathy, her condition deteriorated...
We sought to assess the association between common antihypertensive drugs and risk of incident cancer in treated hypertensive patients. Using Korean National Health Insurance Service database, incidence was analyzed patients with hypertension who were initially free used following drug classes: Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs); angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs); beta (BBs); calcium channel (CCBs); diuretics. During a median follow-up 8.6 years, there 4513 (6.4%) overall...
With the recent obesity pandemic, obesity-related hypertension and its complications (e.g., heart failure, coronary disease, chronic kidney disease [CKD]) are gaining attention in clinical research fields. Obesity-related frequently precedes onset of CKD aggravates progression. In this review, we discuss role visceral fat pathophysiology potential therapeutic strategies for prevention management. Various factors, including sympathetic nervous system, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone...
Two distinct types of systemic amyloidosis—transthyretin (ATTR) and light chain (AL)—account for the majority cardiac amyloidosis (CA), which have been considered mutually exclusive. Diagnostic confusion can arise when both proteins are identified from an amyloid deposit. We present a rare occurrence histopathologically confirmed concomitant ATTR AL CA captured on 99m Tc-3,3-diphosphono-1,2-propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD) scan 18 F-flutemetamol (FMM) PET/CT.
Cancer survivors increasingly face cardiovascular disease (CVD), with diabetes as a major risk factor. This study investigates the relationship between adherence to antidiabetic medications and (CV) outcomes in cancer patients. Using data from Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort, we assessed clinical of adult patients prescribed medications. The population was categorized based on medication adherence, determined by possession ratio (MPR): good (MPR ≥ 0.8),...
