Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Using Anatomy to Prepare Healthcare Students for Patient Death: A Systematic Review

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare students frequently encounter death in clinical practice, yet formal curricula may not appropriately prepare them for its emotional and ethical challenges. Anatomy education using human body donors has the potential to provide early, structured exposure to death, potentially shaping professional, cognitive, and emotional ...

What's a White Matter ‘Fiber’?

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT White matter anatomy is investigated using methods that operate at markedly different spatial scales and rely on distinct biological and physical principles. Nevertheless, the term “fiber” is routinely applied to the outputs of tract‐tracing studies, diffusion MRI tractography, and postmortem fiber dissection, often as though these entities ...

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.

Five‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Biodegradable Versus Durable Polymer Drug‐Eluting Stents: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis of 4394 Patients

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biodegradable‐polymer (BP) drug‐eluting stents (DES) were developed to mitigate potential late adverse events related to persistent durable polymers in durable‐polymer (DP) DES; however, contemporary long‐term real‐world comparative data remain limited. Aims We aimed to compare the 5‐year clinical outcomes of contemporary BP‐DES and

Impaired Flow and Physiology in Coronaries With Anomalous Origin From the Opposite Sinus of Valsalva

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery (AAOCA) high‐risk anatomical features (intramural segment, acute take‐off angle, slit‐like ostium) cause coronary stenosis leading to myocardial infarction. How these features alter coronary physiology remains unclear.

Intravascular Lithotripsy in Left Main Stem Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background IVL is increasingly used for coronary calcium modification; however, prospective data for its use in LMS lesions are lacking. Aims To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and mechanical efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for calcium modification in calcified distal left main stem (LMS) percutaneous coronary intervention ...

Biventricular Pressure‐Volume Loop Analysis in an LVAD Patient Optimized With Impella RP Flex

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Right ventricular (RV) failure after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is a serious complication which may necessitate temporary mechanical support in refractory cases. Here we describe a 63‐year‐old man with end‐stage ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe combined pre‐ and post‐capillary pulmonary hypertension who developed ...
