CVIA Journal

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Aging is an inevitable biological process marked by progressive functional decline and elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This review systematically examines the clinical mechanisms linking aging to cardiovascular pathology, focusing on molecular, cellular, and physiological changes that contribute to cardiovascular aging, which in turn increases the incidence of heart failure, atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation, and other diseases. Key mechanisms include metabolic dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, chronic inflammation, cellular senescence, immune disorders, and epigenetic changes.
