Abstract

Heart failure is a pathological condition characterized by substantial prevalence and mortality, particularly in the Western world. Over recent decades, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions have emerged, significantly enhancing patient survival and overall quality of life. Moreover, advancements in diverse imaging modalities facilitate precise diagnosis and comprehensive investigation into the fundamental etiology, enabling the development of more precise therapeutic approaches. Nonetheless, discernible gaps persist in comprehending specific facets of this condition, albeit persistent research endeavors seek to elucidate these inquiries.
