    Diastolic heart failure

    No full text
    Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (i.e. diastolic heart failure) accounts for about half of heart failure cases. The aim of this review is to reflect current knowledge regarding the epidemiology, pathophysiology and treatment. Diastolic heart failure patients are principally elderly and predominantly female. Numerous pathophysiological alterations in this disease have been shown and recent therapeutic recommendations include control of cardiovascular risk factors and symptoms. New therapeutic options, such as inhibition of late sodium current, aldosterone receptor blockade, combined inhibition of AT1 receptor and the enzyme neprilysin, and phosphodiesterase 5 inhibition are discussed in this review and ongoing clinical trials are also briefly presented. Diastolic heart failure remains a cardiac disease which is difficult to treat; however, new study results allow a better definition of a population of patients who could benefit from specific therapies

    [vøːrtər] : Mélanges de linguistique, de philologie et d’histoire ancienne offerts à Rudolf Wachter

    Désirant honorer le Professeur Rudolf Wachter à l’occasion de son départ à la retraite, trente-quatre de ses collègues, amis et proches ont rédigé pour lui de brèves contributions, consacrées, à chaque coup, à un mot particulier. [vøːrtər], dûment orthographié dans l’alphabet phonétique international, représente l’addition de ces mots, prononcée dans le dialecte de la ville de Winterthur, dont le dédicataire de ce volume est originaire. Chaque mot traité est étudié dans une perspective « linguistique » au sens large, comme l’est le parcours scientifique de Rudolf Wachter: non seulement étymologique, phonétique, morphologique, etc., mais aussi philologique, historique, archéologique, onomastique

    Invasive treatment of hypertension. Update 2016

    No full text
    Invasive treatment methods-more specifically renal denervation and baroreceptor activator therapy-have been used for the treatment of therapy-resistant hypertension for several years now. In particular, renal denervation has aroused great interest because it was easy to perform and the first studies provided very promising results. Meanwhile, however, three randomized, blinded studies have been published, and none showed a significant benefit of renal denervation compared to a sham procedure. In addition, in several studies it was demonstrated that intensification of drug therapy, particularly with spironolactone, is at least comparable. Carotid sinus node baroreceptor activator therapy tends to be superior to renal denervation, but the probe currently used is not optimal. The first results by inserting an arteriovenous shunt between the iliac artery and vein are promising, but lack long-term safety data. Currently, all invasive treatment procedures should be performed within the framework of studies or accurate register surveys
