Role of NPPB for recovery post ventricular assist device in paediatric dilated cardiomyopathy: Single‐cell multiomics

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
This study investigated factors associated with left ventricular recovery after LVAD implantation in paediatric dilated cardiomyopathy. Patients were classified into recovery and non‐recovery groups. Single‐nucleus sequencing revealed higher NPPB expression and altered apoptosis‐related pathways in the recovery group.

Prognostic impact of SCAI shock severity classes in AMI‐related cardiogenic shock: A sub‐study of the ECLS‐SHOCK Trial

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Patients with AMI‐CS (lactate >3 mmol/L) enrolled in the multicentre, randomized ECLS‐SHOCK trial were included. From a total of 417 patients, 51.6% (n = 215), 13.4% (n = 56) and 35.0% (n = 146) presented in SCAI Stages C, D and E, respectively. SCAI stages were associated with the risk of 30 day all‐cause mortality, with rates of renal replacement ...
