Complications associated with intra‐aortic balloon pump treatment in critically ill patients: A systematic review

Nursing in Critical Care, Volume 29, Issue 6, Page 1768-1780, November 2024.
Abstract Background In recent decades, intra‐aortic balloon pump (IABP) technology has made significant progress (sheathless insertion technique, different balloon diameters, percutaneous technique and fibre optic IABP) in reducing complications and increasing patient support.

Circulatory Support: Artificial Muscles for the Future of Cardiovascular Assist Devices

Advanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 43, October 24, 2024.
If the heart fails, mechanical support is required for survival. Artificial muscle actuators are poised to transform the way the heart is supported clinically today. Learning from the challenges in current practice, this article addresses bottlenecks across all actuator types and provides inspiring research perspectives for innovative future technology.

Effects of pharmacological interventions on mortality in patients with Takotsubo syndrome: a report from the SWEDEHEART registry

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 1720-1729, June 2024.
Abstract Aims Takotsubo syndrome (TS) is a heart condition mimicking acute myocardial infarction. TS is characterized by a sudden weakening of the heart muscle, usually triggered by physical or emotional stress. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of pharmacological interventions on short‐ and long‐term mortality in patients with TS ...

The correlation between albumin‐corrected anion gap and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 826-836, April 2024.
Abstract Aims Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a cardiovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality. We collected patients with AMI from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (v2.0) database and explored the association between serum albumin‐corrected anion gap (ACAG) level and mortality in patients with AMI.

Differential effect of left ventricular unloading according to the aetiology of cardiogenic shock

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 338-348, February 2024.
Abstract Aims Evidence for the effectiveness of left ventricular (LV) unloading in patients who received venoaterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or non‐AMI induced cardiogenic shock (CS) is limited.

Acute inspiratory resistance training enhances endothelium‐dependent dilation and retrograde shear rate in healthy young adults

Physiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 3, February 2024.
Abstract Inspiratory resistance training (IRT) yields significant reductions in resting blood pressure and improves vascular endothelial function. Our objective was to quantify the acute effects of IRT on brachial artery flow‐mediated dilation (FMD) and shear rates (SRs) in healthy men and women.

Antianginal effects of empagliflozin in patients with type 2 diabetes and refractory angina; a randomized, double‐blind placebo‐controlled trial (EMPT‐ANGINA Trial)

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 47, Issue 1, January 2024.
The EMPT‐ANGINA randomized trial evaluated the effect of empagliflozin, a sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, on angina symptoms and exercise capacity in patients with both type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and refractory angina (RA). Patients were divided into two groups: one received empagliflozin (n = 37), and the other received a ...
