    • Estimación indirecta de la función renal y mortalidad por insuficiencia cardíaca: buscando el mejor predictor 
      Verdejo, Hugo; Díaz, Felipe; Castro, Pablo; Rossel Mariangel, Víctor; Concepción, Roberto; Sepúlveda, Luis (Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología, 2014)
      Antecedentes: Uno de los principales predictores de eventos adversos en pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca (IC) es el deterioro de función renal luego de una hospitalización. Estudios recientes han cuestionado la ...
    • Frailty in patients admitted to hospital with acute decompensated heart failure Factores asociados a ... 
      Díaz-Toro, Felipe; Nazzal Nazal, Carolina; Verdejo, Hugo; Rossel, Víctor; Castro, Pablo; Larrea, Ricardo; Concepción, Roberto; Sepúlveda, Luis; Sepúlveda, Luis (Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2017)
      © 2017 Rev Med Chile. All right reserved. Background: Frailty is a geriatric syndrome characterized by a progressive impairment in the subjects’ ability to respond to environmental stress. Frailty is more commonly found ...
    • Heart energy metabolism and its role in the treatment of heart failure Metabolismo energético del corazón ...

      It is unknown why heart failure progresses even when patients are treated with the best therapy available. Evidences suggest that heart failure progression is due to loss of neurohumoral blockade in advanced stages of the ...
    • Inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in patients with chronic heart failure Inflamación y disfunción ... 
      Greig, Douglas; Castro, Pablo; Gabrielli, Luigi; Miranda, Rodrigo; Verdejo, Hugo; Alcaíno Gálvez, Hernán Alejandro; Bustos, Carlos; Chiong Lay, Mario; Godoy, Iván; Mellado, Rosemarie; García Nannig, Lorena; Salas, Daniela; Vivar, Raúl; Vukasovic, José Luis; Concepción, Roberto; Díaz Araya, Guillermo (2008)
      Background: In chronic heart failure (CHF), endothelial dysfunction (ED) is a consequence of an imbalance of vascular tone regulating substances. The relationship between ED and inflammation has not been fully investigated. ...
    • Myocardial lipids and creatine measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy among patients with heart failure ... 
      Winter, José Luis; Castro, Pablo; Meneses, Luis; Chalhub, Mónica; Verdejo, Hugo; Greig, Douglas; Gabrielli, Luigi; Chiong Lay, Mario; Concepción, Roberto; Mellado, Rosemarie; Hernández, Claudia; Uribe, Sergio; Lavandero González, Sergio (2010)
      Background: Heart failure (HF) is characterized, among other features, by the development of alterations in myocardial energy metabolism, involving a decrease in glucose utilization and increased free fatty acid uptake by ...
