1. Cover Letter Familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) is a severe form of dyslipidemia characterized by multiple signs and symptoms associated with a deficiency in lipoprotein lipase or one of its cofactors, leading to compromised triglyceride metabolism.

Introduction The Scientific Committee of the Brazilian Society of Cardiology, by determination of its Administrative Council, has convened a work group to monitor and set up scientific evidence on cardiovascular safety of vaccines against COVID-19 in a continuous and systematic way. This group aims to reproduce scientifically solid data, summarize currently available evidence, and develop recommendations to Brazilian cardiologists in the form of positions of the Brazilian Society of Cardiology. Vaccines to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection are considered the most effective […]

1. Introduction Significant advances in understanding cardiac amyloidosis (CA) have been made in recent years, leading to a thorough reformulation of its clinical significance. In addition to convincing evidence that CA is a relatively common cause of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), we are witnessing the emergence of specific therapies that can change the course of the disease and prolong the survival of affected patients. In parallel, relevant advances in cardiovascular imaging techniques have greatly contributed to earlier […]
