Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the Special Issue “Acute Coronary Syndrome: From Diagnosis to Treatment” in the Journal of Clinical Medicine. Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, presenting ongoing challenges in early diagnosis, effective treatment, and long-term management. Recent advancements in biomarker research, imaging modalities, and interventional techniques have significantly transformed ACS management, yet many gaps remain.
This Special Issue aims to collect high-impact research and comprehensive reviews that address these gaps, providing insights into innovative diagnostic strategies, novel therapeutic approaches, and multidisciplinary management frameworks. We seek to foster collaboration and share advancements that can shape clinical practices and improve patient outcomes.
Scope and Themes:
- Advanced risk stratification and the role of biomarkers in early diagnosis;
- Innovations in imaging technologies for ACS detection and intervention;
- Efficacy and safety of emerging pharmacological and interventional treatments;
- Management of ACS in special populations (e.g., the elderly and patients with comorbidities);
- Strategies for optimizing long-term care and patient adherence;
- Health system interventions and quality improvement in ACS care.
We welcome original research articles, clinical trials, and expert reviews. We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions.
