A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...

After a heart attack, the heart struggles to recoup and maintain energy. One-third of patients develop heart failure as a ...

Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...

As of right now, heart failure is irreversible. The chronic condition, in which the heart doesn’t pump blood as well as it should, can be treated with medication and lifestyle changes that slow its ...

Researchers have reduced scar formation and improved heart function in mouse models of heart failure using a monoclonal antibody treatment, similar to that approved by the FDA to treat other ...

A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...

Current models of mortality risk after heart failure (HF) rely primarily on cardiac-specific clinical variables and may underestimate risk in elderly East Asian patients. Researchers from Japan used ...

Long COVID, or post-COVID conditions, refers to a wide range of new or recurrent health problems people may experience after infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. A host of ...

In adults, a typical resting heart rate is 60 to 100 beats per minute, but structural or electrical disorders of the heart can cause it to rise or fall. Medications, a lack of sleep, and stress may ...
