Abstract: BACKGROUND The clinical value of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is uncertain. Due to the growing prevalence of the disease and the current availability of disease-modifying drugs, prognostic stratification is becoming fundamental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/pul2.12044
Abstract: Abstract Periodic repetition of right heart catheterization (RHC) in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can be challenging. We evaluated the correlation between RHC and cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) aiming at CPET use as a potential noninvasive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cardfail.2019.07.087
Abstract: Background Minute ventilation-carbon dioxide production relationship (VE/VCO2 slope), as assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), strongly predicts outcomes in heart failure (HF). High VE/VCO2 slope can indicate ventilatory inefficiency. A single VE/VCO2 slope threshold defining… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12890-019-1003-7
Abstract: BackgroundSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a severe rheumatic disease of the interstitial tissue, in which heart and lung involvement can lead to disease-specific mortality. Our study tests the hypothesis that in addition to established prognostic factors,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0272984
Abstract: Introduction Ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2 slope) has been shown superior to peak oxygen consumption (VO2) for prediction of post-operative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing thoracotomy. VE/VCO2 slope is determined by ventilatory drive and ventilation/perfusion mismatch whereas… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/healthcare11091292
Abstract: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) was limited to peak oxygen consumption analysis (VO2peak), and now the ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2) slope is recognized as having independent prognostic value. Unlike VO2peak, the VE/VCO2 slope does not require… read more here.
