Cardiovascular diseases have evolved as the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with the frequency expected to increase in the next coming years. Cardiovascular disease summarizes a variety of different pathologies, including but not limited to heart failure, atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, inherited cardiomyopathies, or toxic cardiomyopathy (e.g., alcoholic). Plus, the interaction with important comorbidities, like for example sleep-disordered breathing, further reduces patients’ outcome. Despite recent treatment advances, especially in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction, patients’ prognosis remains dramatically reduced, necessitating new therapeutic strategies. This could be achieved by patient-individualized approaches optimized for the various cardiovascular disease entities and their comorbidities. Therefore, detailed understanding of each individual pathomechanism is required.
