This issue of Heart Failure Clinics, guest edited by Dr. Francesco Antonini-Canterin, is dedicated to Clinical Heart Failure Scenarios: from Prevention to Overt Disease and Rehabilitation. This issue is one of four selected each year by series consulting editor Dr. Eduardo Bossone. This issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview over the broad spectrum of clinical scenarios of heart failure, starting from prevention in asymptomatic phase to acute and chronic congestive heart failure to modern rehabilitation.

This issue is one of four issues selected each year by our series consulting editor, Dr. Eduardo Bossone. Topics discussed in this issue will include: When to use CMR for patients with heart failure; Quantifying cardiac dysfunction with CMR; CMR in heritable cardiomyopathies; CMR in ischemic cardiomyopathy; CMR in right heart and pulmonary circulation disorders; CMR of myocardial fibrosis, edema, and infiltrates in heart failure; Magnetic resonance-based characterization of myocardial architecture; CMR in valvular heart disease-related heart failure; Pericardial disease with CMR; CMR’s central role in chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity; Intracardiac and vascular hemodynamics with CMR in heart failure; Myocardial energetics with CMR; CMR in congenital heart disease: focus on heart failure; and Machine learning in CMR applied to heart failure.

In this issue of Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, guest editors Drs. Kenneth A. Ellenbogen, Pugazhendhi Vijayaraman, and Santosh Padala bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Advances in Physiologic Pacing (such as dual-chamber (DDD and DDDR) and atrium-based pacing (AAI and AAIR) in contrast to ventricle-based pacing (VVI and VVIR). Top experts in the field cover key topics such as what we have learned from computer modeling of hemodynamics and LV pacing; troubleshooting the pacemaker EKG in patients with conduction system pacing; what intracardiac tracings have taught us about LBBB; multisite pacing in CRT; and more. Contains 20 relevant, practice-oriented topics including basic principles of hemodynamics during pacing; pacing optimized by dP/dt; optimization of CRT: Q-LV; programming algorithms for CRT; and more. Provides in-depth clinical reviews on physiologic pacing, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.
