title: Heart failure highlights in 2010.
abstract: Heart failure is still a large medical problem, and the European Journal of Heart Failure remains dedicated to further investigating its pathophysiology and diagnosis, as well as alleviating the symptoms and improving outcome for patients with this disorder.(1) In 2010, a large number of important studies have been published, many with exciting results. In this overview, we discuss the results of many of these studies, which have been conducted in a broad range of areas, ranging from pre-clinical research, to co-morbidities, new insights in the genetics of heart failure, and novel guidelines in the field of device therapy.
