Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current Special Issue aims at highlighting new scientific evidence in the field of cardiovascular remodeling, including all aspects of its underlying mechanisms and clinical outcomes.
Cardiac remodeling is a crucial key process in understanding and positively influencing the course of cardiovascular diseases. Most pharmaceutical therapies aim at altering signaling pathways in order to positively influence cardiac remodeling. However, many of the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated.
Manuscripts on biomechanical, biochemical, and biophysical mechanisms leading to cardiovascular remodeling and its subsequent unfavorable outcome are equally welcome as studies on trials on pharmacological or interventional (e.g., PCI, device therapy, structural interventions) influences on cardiac remodeling. Furthermore, models predicting unfavorable or favorable remodeling, e.g., using AI, are suitable as well. The same is true for studies including cardiac imaging illustrating cardiac remodeling and its consequences.
We strongly encourage all manuscripts related to this field to be submitted. We will take care for a quick and thorough review process and are looking forward to receiving your submissions.
This Special Issue is supervised by PD Dr. Kevin Willy and PD Dr. Philipp Maximilian Doldi and assisted by Dr. Florian Doldi and Dr. Julian Wolfes (University Hospital of Münster, Munster, Germany).

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
