TL;DR: Baseline values of all 3 novel biomarkers independently predicted total CV events even after adjusting for clinical and biochemical characteristics, including NT-proBNP, with the best model including all 3 biomarkers showing the most promise.

TL;DR: These observations demonstrate a specific effect of oAβ on NMDA-mediated calcium influx, which triggers synaptic collapse in vivo, and leverages a method to quantitatively measure calcium concentration at the level of neuronal processes, cell bodies and single synaptic elements repeatedly and thus can be applicable to testing putative drugs and/or other intervention methodologies.

TL;DR: The value of serial galectin‐3 measurement for prognosis and response to therapy in chronic HF is examined and it is found that it may mediate cardiac fibrosis.

TL;DR: Investigation of type 2 myocardial infarction found it to be common and associated with poor prognosis, and studies evaluating treatment strategies for management of T2MI are needed.

TL;DR: Post-ACS optimism, but not gratitude, was prospectively and independently associated with superior physical activity and fewer cardiac readmissions and interventions that target optimism can successfully increase optimism or improve cardiovascular outcomes in post- ACS patients is not yet known.
