The mission of General Cardiovascular Medicine is to advance our understanding of personalized approaches to cardiovascular diagnosis and treatment, beginning with the patient physician communication, to bedside clinical assessment, advanced diagnostic and imaging technologies.
*For the submission of a Case Report please submit your manuscript to the Research Topic “Case Reports in General Cardiovascular Medicine 2022”. Note that any submitted Case Report should represent a significant knowledge gain in the field with a complete and thorough study.
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine is a global, peer-reviewed Open Access medical journal providing unrestricted, online access to publications on diagnostic and therapeutic advances in cardiology and cardiovascular disease. Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine publishes peer-reviewed scientific investigations of the highest quality that are of relevance for the diagnosis, treatment, or pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease and related disorders with the goal to understand disease processes and to improve medical practice and patient care.
From the starting point of an individual’s genome sequence to the onset of cardiovascular disease, there is a complex interplay of genetic and environmental influences on cardiovascular disease. For example, mental stress represents an environmental stimulus that might differentially affect individuals’ risk across a broad spectrum of cardiovascular disorders from arrhythmias to high blood pressure, cardiovascular metabolism and heart failure.
A systems medicine approach would integrate such relevant physiologic and behavioral factors that could potentially influence the genesis of cardiovascular disorders, as well as individual response to treatment. Advances in digital technology will make it possible to monitor each individual’s cardiovascular health in the context of their unique socio-demographic, economic and cultural influences. The goal of personalized and patient-centered approach to cardiovascular medicine should fully integrate the context of care and individual characteristics, such as gender, ethnicity, culture, health literacy, education level, income, and geography.
The mission of General Cardiovascular Medicine is to advance our understanding of personalized approaches to cardiovascular diagnosis and treatment, beginning with the patient physician communication, to bedside clinical assessment, advanced diagnostic and imaging technologies. General Cardiovascular Medicine welcomes submissions on models of integrated patient-centered cardiovascular care. The Editors encourage a broad range of research methodologies such as clinical trials, population studies, database reviews, comparative effectiveness and pragmatic trials, as well as preclinical models of care. The Editors are also interested in models of care and decision support that generate evidence-based approaches to cardiovascular care across diverse populations.
The Editors of Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine encourage submission of Original Research Articles (clinical or preclinical), Reviews, Mini Reviews and Case Reports. Original research articles include manuscripts reporting results from clinical investigations, including Phase I-III trials and population studies. Reports from experimental studies from related areas such as physiology, pathophysiology, cellular and molecular biology, genetics, or pharmacology may be considered as as long as they relate to new understandings of pathogenic mechanisms or novel therapeutic approaches relevant to human disease. Articles related to medical education or the future development of medicine may also be considered.
