Inflammatory Cytokines as Early Predictors of Weaning Failure From Extracorporeal Life Support

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Levels of IL‐8 and IL‐6 and their dynamics are reliable early predictors of ECLS weaning failure. ABSTRACT Background Weaning from extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in patients with refractory shock still remains a complex decision. Despite considerable advances in ECLS management, reliable biomarkers to predict weaning success are still not available.

Single‐Incision Anterolateral Thoracotomy for LVAD Implantation: A Novel Minimally Invasive Approach

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A novel single‐incision anterolateral thoracotomy technique enables complete HeartMate 3 implantation without sternotomy, minimizing surgical trauma and accelerating recovery. This minimally invasive approach is feasible, safe, and may represent a new standard in advanced heart failure surgery.

Coronary artery grafting in infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiac vale repair is an uncommon surgery in infants. CABG is technically demanding in infants due to the small size not only of the coronary arteries but also the potential graft arteries.

The Impact of Obesity on Durable Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
14 100 LVAD patients across 21 studies were analyzed. Findings indicated that obese LVAD recipients had lower short‐term mortality and higher risk of infection, thrombosis and right heart failure. There was no difference in long‐term survival between obese and non‐obese patients.

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Assessing the interaction of the UCP system and fatty acids on epicardial adipose tissue mitochondrial respiration

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) demonstrates higher mitochondrial activity than subcutaneous fat (SAT), particularly in NADH‐ and FAO‐linked oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). While EAT expresses more UCP1, its inhibition by GDP minimally affects respiration, especially in FAO pathways, suggesting UCP1‐independence. Diabetes mellitus (DM) and coronary

Hemodynamic and microcirculatory early adaptations following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI): A physiological pilot study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...
