Immune cell dynamics in heart failure: implicated mechanisms and therapeutic targets

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract The relationship between heart failure (HF) and immune activation has garnered significant interest. Studies highlight the critical role of inflammation in HF, affecting cardiac structure and function. Despite promising anti‐inflammatory therapies, clinical trials have faced challenges, indicating an incomplete understanding of immune ...

Anatomical variation of the aorta in the West of Scotland – A population with high cardiovascular disease burden. Implications for stent design and deployment

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 112-120, January 2023., 2023
A population with a high cardiovascular disease burden was found to have a high degree of anatomical variation in the aortic arch (angulation from coronal plane, origin of the vertebral artery) and the abdominal aorta regions (high degree of taper, high number of collaterals and tortuous vessels).

Impact of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists on the risk of sudden cardiac death across cardio‐kidney‐metabolic diseases: A meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a prevalent cause of mortality among patients with cardio‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) diseases. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) reduce the risk of SCD in patients with left ventricular dysfunction, but it is unclear if similar effects are expected across different CKM risk populations irrespective of

The right ventricle under pressure: Anatomy and imaging in sickness and health

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 17-28, January 2023., 2023
The RV is essential to the homeostasis of normal physiology and disturbances in RV structure and function has a substantial effect on patient outcomes. This review sets out to describe the developmental and anatomical complexities of the right ventricle while exploring the modern techniques employed to image and understand its function from a clinical ...

Significant thrombus in saccular aneurysm in a patient with polycythemia: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Morphologically, the risk of aortic aneurysm rupture is mainly evaluated based on its type (e.g., fusiform or saccular) and diameter. Based on the finite element analysis, peak wall stress has been identified as a more sensitive and specific ...

Advancements in left ventricular assist devices to prevent pump thrombosis and blood coagulopathy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 29-49, January 2023., 2023
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD)‐related blood coagulopathy: Pump thrombosis is one of the most severe adverse events caused by LVADs. The contact of blood with artificial materials of LVAD pumps and cannulas triggers the coagulation cascade. Abstract Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, such as left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are
