TL;DR: In a multicenter European population of patients with stable chest pain and low prevalence of CAD, coronary computed tomographic angiography is more accurate than noninvasive functional testing for detecting significant CAD defined invasively.

TL;DR: In patients at intermediate risk of CAD, hybrid imaging allows non-invasive co-localization of myocardial perfusion defects and subtending coronary arteries, impacting clinical decision-making in almost one every five subjects.

TL;DR: It is shown that several miRNAs predict HF hospitalizations, cardiovascular mortality, and poor long-term NYHA status and improve current risk prediction methods.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present the consensus document of the Section on Valvular Disease, Cardiovascular Imaging, Clinical Cardiology, and Interventional Cardiology Associations of the Spanish Society of Cardiology for the diagnosis and management of mitral and tricuspid valve disease.

TL;DR: Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome that results from the structural and/or functional impairment of systolic function or ventricular filling, which in turn causes elevated intracardiac pressure and/ or inadequate cardiac output at rest and during exercise.
