Doxorubicin is a chemotherapeutic used in the treatment of malignant neoplasms with high effectiveness. However, it may result in cardiotoxicity, which manifests as left ventricular dilatation and cardiac dysfunction. The pathophysiology of cardiotoxicity is not yet clearly understood, but mitochondrial dysfunction, increased oxidative stress and activation of matrix metalloproteinases (M…
Cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction is associated with ventricular dysfunction and poor outcomes. Thus, therapeutic approaches to prevent or attenuate the remodeling process are indispensable after myocardial infarction. The mechanisms involved in this process are complex but the inflammatory response might play a critical role. Recently, several evidences suggest that the neut…
Heart failure is responsible by great number of hospitalization around the world. The main causes of heart failure are myocardium ischemia and hypertension. Considering the ischemic alterations, myocardial infarction play a critical role. After myocardial infarction, can occur complex alterations of the ventricular geometry, involving both infarcted and non infarcted regions. In the last …

In-hospital cardiorespiratory arrest (IHCR) are serious events that occur annually in 1 to 5 out of every 1000 hospitalizations and, although they have a high mortality rate, most cases do not occur suddenly, so up to 70% of PCRIH could have been avoided. Thus, biomarkers and scales to stratify prognosis are interesting approaches. For example, studies have already shown the association b…
Cardiac remodeling after acute myocardial infarction is related to progression of ventricular dysfunction and represents an important therapeutic target in heart failure due different etiologies. Among the complex mechanisms activated postinfarction that modulate the remodeling process, the inflammatory response appears as an important predictor of left ventricular remodeling. In this con…
