NURSING WORKLOAD AND FUNCTIONAL AUTONOMY IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE HEART FAILURE ADMITTED TO THE CICU: THE PROSPECTIVE OBSERVATIONAL PRECARDIO STUDY
Anno:
2026
Background Acute heart failure is one of the leading causes of admission to Cardiac Intensive Care Units (CICU) and is associated with high nursing workload, clinical frailty, and reduced functional autonomy. However, structured indicators of nursing workload and functional status are not routinely integrated into decision-making processes at the…

STATIN ASSOCIATED AUTOIMMUNE MYOPATHY: A CASE REPORT
Anno:
2026
Since the publication of the 2019 ESC/EAS Guidelines and their last update in 2025 (1) for the management of dyslipidemias, there is a progressive widespread use of statins because of their impact in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Statins are generally safe and tolerable. A mild myalgia is…

CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTING IN PATIENTS WITH REDUCED LEFT VENTRICULAR EJECTION FRACTION: INSIGHTS FROM A SINGLE-CENTER EXPERIENCE
Anno:
2026
Introduction: Reduced left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) identifies a frail, high-risk population undergoing coronary artery by-pass grafting (CABG) whose benefit remains debated. We assessed the impact of baseline ventricular dysfunction on early outcomes, long-term prognosis, and ventricular function recovery after isolated CABG. Methods: Retrospective single-center study of 2230 consecutive…

URBAN–RURAL DISPARITIES IN CARDIOVASCULAR RISK, LIFESTYLE, AND PSYCHOSOCIAL BURDEN AMONG CARDIAC OUTPATIENTS.
Anno:
2026
Background Geographical factors may influence cardiovascular risk, lifestyle behaviors, and psychosocial stress. Data on urban–rural disparities in Italian outpatient cardiology populations remain limited. We aimed to compare cardiovascular risk factors, physical activity, psychosocial stress, and pharmacological treatment between urban and rural cardiovascular outpatients in Veneto. Methods We performed a…

ROLE OF NURSES AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN REMOTE MONITORING OF INSERTABLE LOOP RECORDERS: EXPERIENCE AT ANNUNZIATA HOSPITAL, COSENZA
Anno:
2026
Background: Remote monitoring (RM) of insertable loop recorders (ILRs) generates high volumes of transmissions, often increasing clinic workload. We evaluated the impact of cloud-based AccuRhythm™ AI algorithms combined with structured nursing oversight on transmission volume and clinical workload. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 103 consecutive patients implanted with LINQ II…

WHEN HYPERTROPHY MISLEADS: UNMASKING FABRY DISEASE
Anno:
2026
Background: A 71-year-old woman with a history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, ischemic heart disease and permanent atrial fibrillation (since 2013) was admitted for post-infectious gonarthritis. A recent evaluation had suggested a hypertrophic phenotype, raising suspicion of infiltrative cardiomyopathy. Case Presentation: During hospitalization, a cardiological consultation was requested. The echocardiogram…

EX NOCENTIBUS: THE CHALLENGING MANAGEMENT OF PULMONARY VENO-OCCLUSIVE DISEASE
Anno:
2026
PVOD is a rare form of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) characterized by remodeling of pulmonary venules with intimal fibrosis leading to lumen obliteration, progressive increase in vascular resistance, right heart failure and death. It is essential to distinguish PVOD from other causes of PAH due to its more aggressive…

PARAVALVULAR LEAK AND HAEMOLYTIC ANAEMIA, WHEN THE SIZE MATTERS
Anno:
2026
Background Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a complication of valve replacement with 1% to 3% of patients developing symptoms including heart failure or haemolysis. The correlation between the size of the leak and the severity of haemolysis is unclear. Small leaks can cause severe haemolysis, whereas significant leaks may cause…

INTRAMYOCARDIAL MELANOMA METASTASIS DETECTING BY18-FDG-PET-CT: A RARE CASE REPORT
Anno:
2026
Patient presentation: we present the case of a patient with a recent melanoma metastasis to the left ventricle (LV). The patient is a 57-year-old male who, in March 2013, underwent excision of a pigmented lesion of the right hip with histological diagnosis of superficial spreading melanoma. In July 2024,…

HEART AND SELF-ESTEEM: NURSE-LED OPPORTUNISTIC CARDIOVASCULAR PREVENTION IN AESTHETIC MEDICINE CLINICS
Anno:
2026
Aesthetic medicine clinics attract a heterogeneous population seeking wellbeing, improved body image and greater self-esteem. Many of these individuals, often adults aged 30–65 years, present unrecognized or inadequately managed cardiovascular risk factors and rarely access conventional cardiology pathways spontaneously, making this setting an unconventional gateway of extraordinary potential for…
