Angiology and Endothelial Pathophysiology in Human Diseases
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
With growing awareness and the evolution of new therapies targeting atherosclerosis, there is a need to expand and disseminate knowledge on the emerging interplay between impaired vascular function and cardiac disease, novel treatment approaches, pathophysiology, and associated outcomes. This themed topic collection aims to summarize the growing body of literature regarding the interplay of vascular function and cardiac diseases and highlight new original findings across a wide spectrum of cardiovascular disease phenotypes. Topics spanning this theme will be considered, including the role of imaging and biomarkers in vascular disease, clinical management, emerging therapies, and other relevant issues. Authors are encouraged to submit original research articles, reviews, and meta-analyses.
