Raman Microscopy at the Organic–Inorganic Interfaces in Human Calcified Aortic Valves Shows the Co‐Existence of Whitlockite Crystals and Carbonated Hydroxyapatite‐Mineralized Collagen Fibrils

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study advances our understanding of aortic valve stenosis by capturing spatially resolved chemical and structural changes at the nanoscale. The findings highlight the potential of combined Raman and electron microscopy for understanding calcification mechanisms across diverse tissue types.

Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Myocardial Ischemia Caused by Subepicardial Hematoma

The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2017
Background Bleeding from bypass anastomosis leakage occurs early after coronary artery bypass grafting. Later, once the anastomosis is covered by intima, spontaneous bleeding is unlikely. Case Description A 63-year-old male patient developed

TAVR in Male Patients With Large Aortic Valve Annuli: A Propensity‐Matched Analysis of Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Trans‐catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with large annuli poses procedural difficulties and possible complications. Aims We sought to compare the peri‐procedural and long‐term outcomes of patients with large annuli undergoing TAVR with self‐expanding (SEV) versus balloon‐expandable (BEV) valves.

Dual Artery Compression for Patent Hemostasis and Prevention of Radial Artery Occlusion: The Quebec Terry2 Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Radial artery occlusion (RAO) is a common complication following transradial artery access (TRA). Patent hemostasis is recommended to reduce RAO. Prophylactic ulnar artery compression is a technique to increase the rate of patent hemostasis.

Levosimendan for patients with severely reduced left ventricular systolic function and/or low cardiac output syndrome undergoing cardiac surgery. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of levosimendan in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Two large randomized controlled trials (RCTs), however, showed no advantages of levosimendan.

Clinical Impact of Angiographic Complications Occurring During Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The clinical impact of different types of angiographic complications during elective PCIs remains largely unexplored. Aims To explore the incidence, management, and outcomes of angiographic complications by type and severity during non‐urgent, non‐CTO PCIs. Methods Clinical and procedural characteristics were prospectively collected
