Kennedy D, Shrestha K, Sheehey B, Li X, Guggilam A, Wu Y, et al.
Circ Heart Fail . 2015 Aug; 8(6):1068-76. PMID: 26276886
Background: Plasma levels of cardiotonic steroids are elevated in volume-expanded states, such as chronic kidney disease, but the role of these natriuretic hormones in subjects with heart failure (HF) is...

Tang W, Wang Z, Shrestha K, Borowski A, Wu Y, Troughton R, et al.
J Card Fail . 2014 Dec; 21(2):91-6. PMID: 25459686
Background: Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) has been linked to increased cardiovascular risk. We aimed to determine the prognostic value of TMAO and its dietary precursors, choline and betaine, in heart failure (HF)....

J Am Soc Echocardiogr . 2014 Sep; 27(11):1176-83. PMID: 25262162
Background: When stratifying thromboembolic risk to patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus is currently the only echocardiographic index that absolutely contraindicates cardioversion. The aim of this...

Am J Cardiol . 2014 May; 113(11):1839-43. PMID: 24837262
Neopterin is synthesized by macrophages upon stimulation with gamma-interferon, and high neopterin production is associated with cellular immune activation and increased production of reactive oxygen species (oxidant stress), but the...

Singh D, Shrestha K, Testani J, Verbrugge F, Dupont M, Mullens W, et al.
J Card Fail . 2014 Apr; 20(6):392-9. PMID: 24704538
Background: Treatment of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with loop diuretics, such as furosemide, is frequently complicated by insufficient urine sodium excretion. We hypothesize that insufficient natriuretic response to diuretic...

J Am Soc Echocardiogr . 2014 Apr; 27(7):726-32. PMID: 24679740
Background: Right ventricular (RV) global longitudinal strain (RV strain) is a sensitive measure of RV mechanics. Its relationship with standard clinical markers and long-term events in chronic systolic heart failure...

J Card Fail . 2013 Sep; 19(9):621-8. PMID: 24054338
Background: New urinary biomarkers, such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), and interleukin-18 (IL-18), are proposed to allow a more reliable early diagnosis and prognosis of acute...
