      Markousis-Mavrogenis, George; Minich, Waldemar B.; Al-Mubarak, Ali A.; Anker, Stefan D.; Cleland, John G. F.; dickstein, kenneth; Lang, Chim C.; Ng, Leong L.; Samani, Nilesh J.; Zannad, Faiez; Metra, Marco; Seemann, Petra; Hoeg, Antonia; Lopez, Patricio; Van Veldhuisen, Dirk J.; De Boer, Rudolf A.; Voors, Adriaan A.; Van Der Meer, Peter; Schomburg, Lutz; Bomer, Nils (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Aims The importance of autoantibodies (AABs) against adrenergic/muscarinic receptors in heart failure (HF) is not well-understood. We investigated the prevalence and clinical/prognostic associations of four AABs recognizing ...

M; Collins, Peter; Davidson, Sean M; Den Ruijter, Hester M.; Engel, Felix B.; Gerdts, Eva; Girao, Henrique; Gyöngyösi, Mariann; Hausenloy, Derek J.; Lecour, Sandrine; Madonna, Rosalinda; Marber, Michael; Murphy, Elizabeth; Pesce, Maurizio; Regitz-Zagrosek, Vera; Sluijter, Joost P.G.; Steffens, Sabine; Gollmann-Tepeköylü, Can; Van Laake, Linda W.; Van Linthout, Sophie; Schulz, Rainer; Ytrehus, Kirsti (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Ischaemic heart disease (IHD) is a complex disorder and a leading cause of death and morbidity in both men and women. Sex, however, affects several aspects of IHD, including pathophysiology, incidence, clinical presentation, ...
    • Multimarker profiling identifies protective and harmful immune processes in heart failure: Findings from BIOSTAT-CHF 

      Markousis-Mavrogenis, George; Tromp, Jasper; Ouwerkerk, Wouter; Ferreira, João Pedro; Anker, Stefan D; Cleland, John G; Dickstein, Kenneth; Filippatos, Gerasimos; Lang, Chim C; Metra, Marco; Samani, Nilesh J; De Boer, Rudolf A; Van Veldhuisen, Dirk J; Voors, Adriaan A; Van Der Meer, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Aims The exploration of novel immunomodulatory interventions to improve outcome in heart failure (HF) is hampered by the complexity/redundancies of inflammatory pathways, which remain poorly understood. We thus aimed to ...
    • Pathophysiological pathways in patients with heart failure and atrial fibrillation 

      Santema, Bernadet T.; Arita, Vicente Artola; Sama, Iziah E.; Kloosterman, Mariëlle; van den Berg, Maarten P.; Nienhuis, Hans L.A.; Van Gelder, Isabelle C.; van der Meer, Peter; Zannad, Faiez; Metra, Marco; Ter Maaten, Jozine M.; Cleland, John G.; Ng, Leong L.; Anker, Stefan D.; Lang, Chim C.; Samani, Nilesh J.; Dickstein, Kenneth; Filippatos, Gerasimos; van Veldhuisen, Dirk J.; Lam, Carolyn S.P.; Rienstra, Michiel; Voors, Adriaan A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are two growing epidemics that frequently co-exist. We aimed to gain insights into the underlying pathophysiological pathways in HF patients with AF by comparing ...
    • VEGF-B hypertrophy predisposes to transition from diastolic to systolic heart failure in hypertensive rats
