It highlights the significant global health burden posed by HIV and its potential to cause long-term cardiovascular complications. The review investigates the pathogenesis of HIV-associated cardiomyopathy. It elucidates the intricate cellular and molecular pathways involved, including the actions of neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, and lymphocytes in cardiac inflammation. Key signaling pathways such as TNF-NF-κB and the caspase-1 inflammasome are detailed, as they contribute to cardiac infection and injury. The clinical manifestations of HIV-associated cardiomyopathy are discussed, including fatigue, dyspnea, peripheral edema, and arrhythmias. The review outlines essential diagnostic methods, highlighting the importance of cardiac biomarkers, electrocardiography, and imaging techniques such as echocardiography and cardiac MRI. Treatment strategies are explored, encompassing lifestyle modifications, pharmacological interventions, and advanced therapies. The review underscores the importance of addressing micronutrient deficiencies, particularly selenium, in the management of HIV-associated cardiomyopathy. It also discusses the role of antiretroviral therapy and the potential benefits of intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. Furthermore, this review addresses the evolving perspective on heart transplantation for individuals with HIV. It notes that while HIV was once considered a contraindication for transplantation, recent advancements in antiretroviral therapy have led to a re-evaluation of this stance. Finally, the review identifies future research directions, emphasizing the need for biomarkers to detect at-risk patients, exploration of nutritional factors predisposing individuals to cardiomyopathy, and further investigation into advanced therapies for HIV-associated cardiomyopathy. This review significantly enhances the understanding of HIV-associated cardiomyopathy, providing valuable insights for clinicians and researchers in the fields of infectious diseases and cardiology.</p>","PeriodicalId":12414,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":"12 ","pages":"1601430"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12465280/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145185186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Utilizing global burden of disease (GBD) dataset from 1990 to 2021, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the global, regional, and national trends in deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to CVDs caused by high BMI. Age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized DALY rate (ASDR) were also investigated. Furthermore, we examined the associations of gender, age, and socio-demographic index (SDI) with the burden of CVDs attributable to high BMI. Finally, we assessed the evolution of health inequalities across countries and projected the global deaths and DALYs due to high BMI-related CVDs over the next two decades.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The absolute numbers and the rates of age-standardized death, Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) per 100,000 people due to high BMI-related CVDs between 1990 and 2021 were extracted from GBD 2021. The estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) of high BMI-related CVDs disease burdens were calculated under the GBD's comparative risk assessment framework. Additionally, the disease burden prediction of the high BMI-related CVDs from 2022 to 2041 was performed using the bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) statistical model.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;In 2021, high BMI-related CVDs accounted for 1.90 million deaths globally, representing an increase of 120.63% compared to 1990, with DALYs rising by 115.47% over the same period. Notably, while ASMR and ASDR among male showed no decline, female experienced 11.30% reduction in ASMRs and 6.12% reduction in ASDR. The burden was disproportionately borne by middle-aged and older populations across all age groups. Global health inequalities related to high BMI-related CVDs demonstrated a narrowing trend from 1990 to 2010, followed by a reversal into a negative correlation and continued to widen until 2021. Looking ahead, the burden of high BMI-related CVDs is projected to rise significantly due to population growth, the increasing prevalence of obesity, and aging populations.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results indicate that from 1990 to 2021, the burden of CVDs caused by high BMI has significantly increased. Particular attention should be directed toward middle and low-middle SDI regions. To mitigate this burden, it is imperative to implement public health strategies that emphasize education and awareness regarding the correlation between high BMI and CVDs. Policies promoting healthy dietary habits and regular physical activity are essential for reducing the future impact of high BMI-related cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

Sudden Cardiac Death in the Young (SCDY) is characterized by multifactorial etiology, which includes cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, channelopathies, aortopathies and coronary artery diseases. Despite progress in prevention, a significant percentage of these deaths remain unexplained without a thorough autopsy. This study aims to SCDY cases registered between 2016 and 2024, exploring the association between type of autopsy, age, sex, causes of death and temporal changes.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Data relating to subjects who died for suspected SCDY, who underwent forensic, or hospital autopsy were retrospectively analysed. Investigations included type of autopsy (diagnostic or judicial), age (in years), sex, available clinical data, gross and histological findings, and cause of death. The data were divided by age groups (0-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40 years), sex and cause of death (arrhythmias, congenital heart defects, myocarditis, vascular dissections and cardiomyopathies).

Congenital heart defects prevailed in newborns and children, while hypertrophic or arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies were more frequently observed in young adults. Temporally, there has been a progressive increase in molecular autopsies and genetic diagnoses, in particular after the introduction of the AECVP (2017) and SCVP (2023) guidelines.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>The findings highlight the need for a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis of SCDY, with particular emphasis on molecular autopsy to identify genetic causes. The male predominance and age-related etiological differences underline the importance of specific preventive strategies, such as genetic screening in newborns and victims' relatives. The increase in diagnoses over time reflects the effectiveness of updated guidelines, but it remains crucial to expand the mandatory nature of autopsies to improve understanding of the causes of SCDY and reduce the incidence of these tragic events.</p>","PeriodicalId":12414,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":"12 ","pages":"1630511"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12460248/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145185164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
