Henry Dargie

Professor Henry Dargie is an Honorary Senior Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow's School of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health. His work focuses on heart failure, myocardial infarction, and biomarker research. He has contributed extensively to clinical trials and studies evaluating cardiac structure/function, prognostic markers (e.g., BNP, galectin-3), and therapeutic interventions in cardiovascular disease.

Research Interests: Prof. Dargie's research spans cardiac imaging (MRI), biomarker development, and clinical trials in acute/chronic heart failure. Key areas include post-myocardial infarction remodeling, iron deficiency in heart failure, and the role of aldosterone/cortisol in cardiac remodeling. His work bridges basic science (e.g., apelin signaling) and translational medicine.

Article Trends: Recent work emphasizes the prognostic utility of cardiac MRI parameters and biomarkers (e.g., TIMP-4, ST2) in myocardial infarction survivors. He has also investigated vascular stiffness, renal-cardiac interactions, and the impact of endothelin receptor antagonists in heart failure patients.

Lab/Affiliations: Affiliated with the University of Glasgow's cardiovascular research programs, collaborating on projects involving the British Heart Foundation and European Society of Cardiology. His research aligns with clinical trials and observational studies addressing heart failure management and outcomes.
