Journal ArticleDOI
Neurohormonal Activation and the Chronic Heart Failure Syndrome in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease
Aidan P. Bolger,Rakesh Sharma,Wei Li,Marjolein F. E. Leenarts,Paul R. Kalra,Michael Kemp,Andrew J.S. Coats,Stefan D. Anker,Michael A. Gatzoulis +8 more
TL;DR: Neurohormonal activation in adult congenital heart disease bears the hallmarks of chronic heart failure, relating to symptom severity and ventricular dysfunction and not necessarily to anatomic substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between cholesterol and survival in patients with chronic heart failure
Mathias Rauchhaus,Andrew L. Clark,Wolfram Doehner,Constantinos H. Davos,Aidan P. Bolger,Rakesh Sharma,Andrew J.S. Coats,Stefan D. Anker,Stefan D. Anker +8 more
TL;DR: In patients with CHF, lower serum total cholesterol is independently associated with a worse prognosis, and receiver-operating characteristic curves demonstrated a best cut-off value of =5.2 mmol/l (200.8 mg/dl) as being the best predictor of mortality at 12 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intravenous iron alone for the treatment of anemia in patients with chronic heart failure.
Aidan P. Bolger,Frederick R. Bartlett,Helen S. Penston,Justin O’Leary,Noel Pollock,Raffi Kaprielian,Callum M. Chapman +6 more
TL;DR: Intravenous iron sucrose, when used without concomitant EPO, is a simple and safe therapy that increases Hb, reduces symptoms, and improves exercise capacity in anemic patients with CHF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wasting as an independent predictor of mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis
Rakesh Sharma,Viorel G. Florea,Aidan P. Bolger,Wolfram Doehner,N D Florea,Andrew J.S. Coats,M E Hodson,Stefan D. Anker,Stefan D. Anker,Michael Y. Henein +9 more
TL;DR: Body wasting is a significant predictor of survival in patients with CF independent of lung function, arterial blood oxygen and carbon dioxide tensions and patients with >85% ideal body weight had a better prognosis at 5 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myocardial Production of C-Type Natriuretic Peptide in Chronic Heart Failure
Paul R. Kalra,Jonathon R. Clague,Aidan P. Bolger,Stefan D. Anker,P. A. Poole-Wilson,Allan D. Struthers,Andrew J.S. Coats +6 more
TL;DR: Although further evaluation is required to define its full pathophysiological role in this condition, CNP may represent an important new local mediator in the heart.
