Cardiovascular Diseases: From Basic Research to Clinical Application

Dear Colleagues,

Presently, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most prominent threat to human health. Because CVD is still the leading cause of death, research in this field is a critical task. Although recent decades have seen tremendous progress regarding the risk factors of CVD, the molecular basis of atherosclerosis, coronary revascularization, and the treatment of heart failure (among others), much remains to be done, and the prospects are promising. In order to improve the quality and length of life for those at risk of CVD, research for better predictors of this disease and better means for prevention and treatment must be the target.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to identify several important advances in clinical and basic research in CVD that will provide the tools for further progress in the prevention and treatment of this disease. As artificial intelligence plays an increasingly important role in the prevention of CVD, it may be worth having a look at this particular field.

Therefore, it is our pleasure to invite all researchers with interest in CVD research and who are willing to be part of this Special Issue project to publish papers that address novelties in both clinical and basic cardiovascular research. We encourage the submission of all types of manuscripts including original studies, reviews and short communications
