Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Editors described “microscopic remodeling” and the hazardous mechanism of superposed multiple stressors on heart tissue in the first edition (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jcm/special_issues/clinical_frontiers_heart_failure).
Segmental awareness in heart imaging for the detection of the predominant septal base could be the answer for the missing link in undiagnosed hypertension with a high stress score before mortal outcomes. Stress is likely to produce a stress septal sign or “Triple S” on the septal base (free location from the vagus), reflecting the gray zone between chronic and acute stressful cases. Beyond excessive exercise or pressure overload in hypertension on third-generation microscopic USG, “Triple S” even develops in animals undergoing emotional stress. After the first edition, we are motivated because of positive feedback from scientists who acknowledge hypertension and underlying emotional problems via segmental awareness in individuals with “Triple S”. We strongly believe that physicians should make a note of exercise hypertension and high stress scores due to anxiety/panic in cases with incidentally detected “Triple S”. In this new Special Issue, a novel neuro-cardiological perspective will consolidate the knowledge on stress in heart tissue. All researchers are invited to contribute original works and reviews. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Cardiovascular aspects of sympathetic overdrive as a stressor in hypertension.
- Types of stressors.
- Emotion in superposed multiple stressors.
- Segmental awareness in heart USG.
- Hemodynamic overload.
- Imaging criteria of segmental remodeling.
- Routine imaging of heart remodeling.
- Triple S in hypertensive patients.
- Hemodynamic fluctuations.
- High stress score.
- Exercise hypertension.
- Chronic and acute stressful pathologies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Clinical Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
