A narrative review of inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes in young population: role of genetic diagnosis in exercise recommendations [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine
Sudden cardiac death is a rare but socially devastating event, especially if occurs in young people. Usually, this unexpected lethal event occurs during or just after exercise. One of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death is inherited arrhythmogenic

The prognostic value of clinical frailty scale and outcomes in older patients undergoing left ventricular assist device implantation

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 257-263, December 2022., 2022
The main finding in our study is that Clinical Frailty Scale‐defined frailty status was predictive of 1‐year post‐interventional mortality after left ventricular assist device implantation. Abstract Objectives Heart failure impacts patients’ functional capabilities, ultimately leading to frailty.

Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the management of Waldenström macroglobulinemia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 338-347, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors have taken a central role in the management of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and are the only agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat these patients. Although associated with high rates of durable responses, unmet needs with BTK inhibitor therapy include ...

Selective parenchymal clamping in open partial nephrectomy: Early experience with a low cost, reusable novel parenchymal clamp

open access: yesBJUI Compass, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 88-95, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study is to present our initial experience with a novel parenchymal clamp (NPC) developed to allow partial nephrectomies (PN) to be performed without whole kidney ischaemia. We compare patients who underwent PN with the NPC with those undergoing standard PNs. Methods The NPC applies pressure only to the portion

Evaluation of factors associated with selection for coronary angiography and in‐hospital mortality among patients presenting with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest without ST‐segment elevation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1159-1170, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Clinical factors favouring coronary angiography (CA) selection and variables associated with in‐hospital mortality among patients presenting with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) without ST‐segment elevation (STE) remain unclear.

Underweight and obesity are related to higher mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography: The KARDIO invasive cardiology register study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1242-1251, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background In patients with some cardiovascular disease conditions, slightly elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with a lower mortality risk (termed “obesity paradox”). It is uncertain, however, if this obesity paradox exists in patients who have had invasive cardiology procedures.

QT and Tpeak‐Tend interval variability: Predictive electrical markers of hospital stay length and mortality in acute decompensated heart failure. Preliminary data

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1192-1198, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background As previously reported, an increased repolarization temporal imbalance induces a higher risk of total/cardiovascular mortality. Hypothesis The aim of this study was to assess if the electrocardiographic short period markers of repolarization temporal dispersion could be predictive of the hospital stay length and mortality in ...
