High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein in Chronic heart failure: Patient Characteristics, Phenotypes and mode of death (2019)
Journal Article
Pellicori, P., Zhang, J., Cuthbert, J., Urbinati, A., Shah, P., Kazmi, S., …Cleland, J. (2020). High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein in Chronic heart failure: Patient Characteristics, Phenotypes and mode of death. Cardiovascular research, 116(1), 91-100. https://doi.org/10.1093/cvr/cvz198

Aims: Plasma concentrations of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) are often raised in chronic heart failure (CHF) and might indicate inflammatory processes that could be a therapeutic target. We aimed to study the associations between hsCRP,... Read More about High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein in Chronic heart failure: Patient Characteristics, Phenotypes and mode of death.

Prevalence, pattern and clinical relevance of ultrasound indices of congestion in outpatients with heart failure (2019)
Journal Article
Pellicori, P., Shah, P., Cuthbert, J., Urbinati, A., Zhang, J., Kallvikbacka-Bennett, A., …Cleland, J. G. F. (2019). Prevalence, pattern and clinical relevance of ultrasound indices of congestion in outpatients with heart failure. European journal of heart failure, 21(7), 904-916. https://doi.org/10.1002/ejhf.1383

Aims Even if treatment controls symptoms, patients with heart failure may still be congested. We aimed at assessing the prevalence and clinical relevance of congestion in outpatients with chronic heart failure. Conclusions Many patients with chr...

Dynamic risk stratification using serial measurements of plasma concentrations of natriuretic peptides in patients with heart failure (2018)
Journal Article
Zhang, J., Pellicori, P., Pan, D., Dierckx, R., Clark, A. L., & Cleland, J. (2018). Dynamic risk stratification using serial measurements of plasma concentrations of natriuretic peptides in patients with heart failure. International journal of cardiology, 269, 196-200. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2018.06.070

Background Prognostic models for patients with chronic heart failure are generally based on a single assessment but treatment is often given with the intention of changing risk; re- evaluation of risk is an important aspect of care. The prognostic va... Read More about Dynamic risk stratification using serial measurements of plasma concentrations of natriuretic peptides in patients with heart failure.

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...
