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

Catheterization 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.

Comorbidity profiles in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a multicohort study

ERJ Open Research
Background Comorbidities are common in COPD, adversely affecting patients’ health. Cluster analysis has been proposed to study phenotypic variability, but inconsistent results have raised concerns.

Annular Ellipticity and Sizing Strategy in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Independent or Combined Risk Patterns?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Elliptical annular anatomy has been considered a risk factor for adverse outcomes after TAVI, particularly paravalvular leakage (PVL). Prosthesis oversizing is thought to improve sealing, but the interaction between annular shape and sizing strategy remains unclear.

Mitral Transcatheter Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients With Advanced Heart Failure: A Single‐Center Experience and Insights Into Anatomical and Clinical Determinants of Procedural Complexity

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advanced heart failure (HF) remains a clinical challenge, and mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has emerged as a potential bridging strategy. Aims To describe the clinical outcomes of M‐TEER in a single‐center cohort of patients with advanced HF and to identify anatomical and clinical features potentially associated ...

Comment on “Computed Tomography Imaging Findings in Chemical Warfare Victims with Pulmonary Complications” [PDF]

Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Medicine, 2013
Dr.Mirsadraei and colleagues performed an interesting study about the lung HRCT findings in chemical warfare patients who suffering from long-term pulmonary complications. They found that air trapping and mosaic attenuation were the most common lung HRCT

Permanent Pacemaker Implantation Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Incidence, Predictors, and Association With Reduced Ischemic Stroke Risk

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Development of conduction abnormalities requiring pacing after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is relatively common. The effects of post‐TAVR permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation on mortality, ischemic stroke, and cardiovascular outcomes remain incompletely characterized.

No evidence for additional systemic eosinophil mobilization during exacerbations in patients with COPD and chronic bronchitis but no allergy

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThere is published evidence that a modest increase in blood eosinophils during stable COPD indicates future risk for exacerbations and a potential utility of inhaled corticosteroids. This has been perceived as an argument for targeting systemic

Variability in ACT Response to Standard UFH Bolus During PCI: A Prospective Study on Determinants of Subtherapeutic Anticoagulation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the standard anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with guidelines recommending a target activated clotting time (ACT) of ≥250 s. However, despite receiving a standardized bolus dose, many patients fail to achieve this target.
