Journal ArticleDOI

Association Between Extracellular Matrix Expansion Quantified by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance and Short-Term Mortality

TL;DR: ECV measures of extracellular matrix expansion may predict mortality as well as other composite end points (death/cardiac transplant/left ventricular assist device implantation) and Cox regression models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial Interstitial Fibrosis in Heart Failure: Biological and Translational Perspectives

TL;DR: Current knowledge of the mechanisms and detrimental consequences of myocardial interstitial fibrosis are summarized, the potential of circulating and imaging biomarkers available to recognize different phenotypes of this lesion and track their clinical evolution are discussed, and the currently available and potential future therapies that allow its individualized management in heart failure patients are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial extracellular volume fraction quantified by cardiovascular magnetic resonance is increased in diabetes and associated with mortality and incident heart failure admission

TL;DR: Extracellular volume fraction detects amelioration of ECM expansion associated with RAAS blockade, and is associated with mortality and/or incident hospitalization for heart failure in diabetic individuals.
