Current Management Aspects in Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD): Part III

Health promotion and salutogenesis provide a new complementary scientific and practical approach to medicine, which may help to create, maintain and restore wellness in ACHD.

Endovascular and Surgical Interventions in the End Stage Renal Disease Population

This special series on “Endovascular and Surgical Interventions in the End Stage Renal Disease Population” is edited by Dr. Lee Kirksey and Dr. Sasan Partovi. This special series will encompass a comphrehensive overview of advancements in endovascular and surgical interventions in the end stage renal disease population and will reflect a national and international collaborative effort from multiple disciplines.

Heart Failure in the Young and Old: Insights into Various Therapies

This is a special series focused on various treatment strategies in heart failure. Chronic heart failure is presently the most prevalent heart pathology complex, primarily because of its increasing incidence with an ever-aging population. This could be attributed to successful treatment of acute heart failure by interventional, operative, or instrumental interventions, thus delaying death to a later time. Such aforementioned interventions do not solely apply to the adult population with heart failure but also to newborns, infants and children with congenital heart diseases, who, through interventions, can reach adolescence and/or even adulthood until the “still somewhat” abnormal circulation comes to its functional limits.

2020 Annual Report of CDT

Greetings from Prof. Paul Schoenhagen and Editorial Office of CDT!

We are glad to present the 2020 Annual Report of CDT here. In 2020, CDT has made great progress under the join-efforts of experts worldwide. In 2020, our impact factor increased to 2.6. The total citations of CDT have significantly increased from 3350 to 5018 in the past 2020. And retrieval in PubMed also increased rapidly with the total retrievals up to 787,739 times. More information is shown in the Annual Report.

Advanced Imaging in The Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases

This special issue entitled “Advanced Imaging in the diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases” represents a fundamental area of intersection between advanced research in the field of imaging and the need of early identification of the atherosclerotic disease, the underlying process of two of the most important causes of death worldwide: ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction.

Impact of Cardiac CT in Clinical Practice

This special series on cardiac CT in clinical practice would like to provide our readers an overview of all aspects of contemporary cardiac CT. The basics, fundamentals and evidence of cardiac CT clinical use are covered in detail in this series.

Intracoronary Imaging

This special series on intracoronary imaging has been arranged to provide our readers an overview of all aspects of intracoronary imaging. The basics, fundamentals and evidence on IVUS, OCT and NIRS are covered in detail in this series. This is followed by a summary of how IVUS and OCT can be incorporated into clinical practice as well as translational research. The aim of this series is to equip our readers with knowledge and confidence on how to incorporate intracoronary imaging into routine clinical practice and ultimately improve patient outcome.

Right Ventricular Dysfunction

In the last decades, substantial progress has been made in the diagnosis and treatment of right ventricular dysfunction in pediatric and adult patients. The pathobiology of right ventricular dysfunction, however, is heterogenous and broad, and, thus, there are many obstacles and areas of uncertainties to unpack. In this special issue, internationally renowned experts from multiple specialties comprehensively discuss impactful discoveries and innovations in the fascinating field of RV dysfunction that have emerged in the last years, both in adult and the pediatric disciplines.

New Impact Factor for Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy: 2.615

We are pleased to announce that the Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy (CDT) has attained its latest impact factor update for the 2019 citation year: 2.615.

The impact factor, as published in the annual Journal Citation Reports (JCR), is a calculation determined based on the number of citations accumulated in 2019 for manuscripts published in 2017 and 2018.
