Neurocardiology is an interdisciplinary field that studies the interactions between the nervous and cardiovascular systems, encompassing research across the entire spectrum, from molecular mechanisms to clinical diagnosis and treatment. The disease types in neurocardiology include several major categories: Involvement of the nervous and cardiovascular systems caused by common factors, involvement of the cardiovascular system caused by neuropsychiatric abnormalities, and involvement of the nervous system caused by cardiovascular abnormalities. Routine and special examinations are needed during the diagnostic process. The simultaneous management of brain and heart conditions is the core strategy, which advocates multidisciplinary collaboration, communication, and interaction. Herein, we review studies on the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical mani
Core Tip: As a burgeoning medical science, neurocardiology is an interdisciplinary field built on the foundations of neurology and cardiology and dedicated to studying the interactions between the nervous, mental, and psychological systems; cardiovascular diseases; and circulatory function. However, it remains in its initial developmental stages in terms of pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment. Precision therapy in neurocardiology is expected to become a future trend. The present review focuses on the basis of neurocardiac interactions, auxiliary examinations, traditional Chinese medicine, and multidisciplinary treatment in the research field of neurocardiology. Finally, we further proposed the construction of an integrated medical and health service system for future research.
