Filter by:Autophagy is considered an important component of Heart failure progression. Deubiquitination enzymes play an important role in autophagy. An important regulatory process within the autophagy pathway is ubiquitination. Ubiquitination targets proteins for degradation. On the contrary, de-ubiquitinating proteins (such as UCHL1) reverses this process. Studies have demonstrated deubiquitination to be linked to certain pathological processes, such as heart failure. UCHL1 will be examined as a potential marker of disease progression in acute decompensated heart failure.
Acute heart failure is a common reason for emergency department visits and hospitalization, but the diagnosis can be challenging because of non-specific symptoms and signs. The current diagnostic approach to acute heart failure has modest accuracy, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment, which associate with worse prognosis. Prior work suggests diagnostic accuracy can be improved with the addition of multiple circulating biomarkers discovered through proteomics, and this study will derive and validate a multi-marker model to improve diagnostic accuracy for acute heart failure in the emergency department.
This is an observational retrospective single-center study (CHRU of Nancy) in patients cared for acute dyspnea by a medical team of the emergencies of the CHRU of Nancy. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the outcome of patients cared for acute dyspnea by a medical team of emergencies of CHRU of Nancy.
