U-shaped correlation of lymphocyte count with all-cause hospital mortality in sepsis and septic shock patients: a MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD database study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine
Background In sepsis, the relationship between lymphocyte counts and patient outcomes is complex. Lymphocytopenia and lymphocytosis significantly influence survival, illustrating the dual functionality of lymphocytes in responding to infections.

The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio levels over time correlate to all-cause hospital mortality in sepsis

open access: yesHeliyon
Objective: This research aims to investigate the prognosis value using the time-weighted average neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (TWA-NLR) for predicting all-cause hospital mortality among sepsis patients.

Dissociation of Cerebral Blood Flow and Femoral Artery Blood Pressure Pulsatility After Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation in a Rodent Model: Implications for Neurological Recovery. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background Impaired neurological function affects 85% to 90% of cardiac arrest (CA) survivors. Pulsatile blood flow may play an important role in neurological recovery after CA.

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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.

Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2017
Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is used for patients in isolated or combined cardiopulmonary failures. The use of ECLS to rescue patients with cardiac arrest that is refractory to conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation has been shown to improve survival in many patient populations.

Clinical Impact of Angiographic Complications Occurring During Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

open access: yesCatheterization 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

Knowledge of non-healthcare individuals towards cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a cross-sectional study in Riyadh City, Saudi Arabia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Most sudden cardiac arrests occur at home, with low rates of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation being performed. We aimed to assess knowledge of cardiopulmonary resuscitation among individuals in Riyadh City, Saudi Arabia, who are not ...

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.
