The Monocrotaline Model of Hypertension Leads to Cachexia in Male but Not Female Mice.

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b></p><p>The monocrotaline (MCT) model of cardiac cachexia is a pharmaceutical approach to pulmonary hypertension that has been used to study heart failure and muscle wasting in rodents; however, little is known of how this pyrrolizidine alkaloid leads to peripheral changes...

Differences in peak oxygen uptake in heart failure patients with and without cachexia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is characterized by reduced peak oxygen consumption (VO 2peak). Cachexia may exacerbate the decline in VO 2peak from reductions in muscle mass and strength. We sought to assess differences in VO 2peak between patients with CHF...

Body composition in patients with obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: A comparison study.

Appendicular lean mass index is a major determinant of cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Moreover, appendicular lean mass index can be used to diagnose sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity in this population. We...

Sarcopenia Assessment Using Fully Automated Deep Learning Predicts Cardiac Allograft Survival in Heart Transplant Recipients.

Sarcopenia is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with end-stage heart failure. Muscle mass can be quantified via manual segmentation of computed tomography images, but this approach is time-consuming and subject to interobserver variability. We sought to determine whether fully...

Dual Roles of HbA1c Variability and Body Composition for Cardiovascular Risk: A Cohort Study of 8224 Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Glycaemic variability and body composition are emerging predictors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, their combined impact remains unclear. We investigated the association among HbA1c variability, body composition parameters and cardiovascular outcomes in...

Consolidating Concepts from Recent International Expert Consensus on Sarcopenia: Implications for Heart Failure Management.

Heart failure is a clinical syndrome associated with a range of pathophysiological disorders including secondary sarcopenia that reduces patients' quality of life, mobility, physical fitness and capacity to undergo rehabilitation and recovery from acute decompensation. Although international expert writing groups...

Novel Aptamers Targeting Sclerostin Loop3 Improve Skeletal and Muscle Properties Without Adverse Cardiovascular Effects in Orchiectomized Mice.

The Wnt/ฮฒ-catenin pathway and its bone-specific inhibitor, sclerostin, play important roles in skeletal development and homeostasis. The humanized sclerostin antibody, romosozumab, can significantly increase bone mineral density (BMD) of patients with osteoporosis, but it may also increase cardiovascular adverse events,...
