Neurocognitive dysfunction is common in heart failure (HF), and is independently associated with worse outcomes including mortality, rehospitalization, and reduced quality of life. It is paramount to raise awareness of the neurocognitive consequences in ischemic HF and devise strategies for recognition and prevention as an important target of patient management and personalized decision making that contributes to patient outcomes. This review outlines the current evidence and gaps in our understanding of neurocognitive dysfunction in HF and their implications on selection of revascularization strategies in patients with ischemic HFrEF.

Reaching the Paris Agreement temperature targets requires a substantial increase in individual countries’ ambition to reduce GHG emissions. Research on the macroeconomic implications of global decarbonization pathways is limited, often focuses on the energy sector, and ignores shifts toward non-energy sectors, leading to concerns regarding unemployment and economic losses. We aim to analyze the mitigation options to bring emissions in line with ambitious climate targets and evaluate the macroeconomic consequences of this energy transition to investigate these concerns.
