Popis: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute and usually reversible heart failure syndrome, frequently associated with emotional or physical stress. Its pathophysiology remains largely unclear, although several mechanisms related to catecholaminergic storm have been proposed. In this study we analyzed during the acute phase of TTS and at follow-up both hemorheological parameters and biomarkers of endothelial damage, whose time course has never been fully explored. In 50 TTS women, we analyzed several hemorheological parameters [whole blood viscosity (WBV) at 0.512 s
