Background: Jugular venous distension, reflecting raised right atrial pressure (RAP), is a classical sign of congestive heart failure (CHF), but its clinical assessment can be difficult. Methods: RAP was measured non-invasively using near-infrared sp... Read More about Non-invasive measurement of right atrial pressure by near-infrared spectroscopy: preliminary experience.

What proportion of patients with chronic heart failure are eligible for sacubitril-valsartan? (2017)
Journal Article
Pellicori, P., Urbinati, A., Shah, P., MacNamara, A., Kazmi, S., Dierckx, R., …Clark, A. L. (2017). What proportion of patients with chronic heart failure are eligible for sacubitril-valsartan?. European journal of heart failure, 19(6), 768-778. https://doi.org/10.1002/ejhf.788

Aims The PARADIGM-HF trial showed that sacubitril–valsartan, an ARB–neprilysin inhibitor, is more effective than enalapril for some patients with heart failure (HF). It is uncertain what proportion of patients with HF would be eligible for sacubitril... Read More about What proportion of patients with chronic heart failure are eligible for sacubitril-valsartan?.

Exploring the relation between changes in NT-proBNP and renal function in patients with suspected heart failure using structural equation modelling (2017)
Journal Article
Zhang, J., Wong, K., Clark, A. L., & Cleland, J. G. (2017). Exploring the relation between changes in NT-proBNP and renal function in patients with suspected heart failure using structural equation modelling. International journal of cardiology, 233, 67-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2017.01.127

Background The relation between changes in NT-proBNP and renal function has commonly been studied using multiple regressions, which may ignore the complexity of relations between related variables. Methods and results Data were collected from patient...
