Prevention and Management of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention‐Related Complications: Assessing the Impact of Simulation‐Based Learning and Human Factors Training

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain infrequent but are associated with a risk of serious injury or death. The techniques and devices required to manage them may be unfamiliar or unavailable to operators.

Stress Echocardiography Positivity Predicts Cancer Death

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundStress echocardiography (SE) predicts cardiac death, but an increasing share of cardiac patients eventually die of cancer. The aim of the study was to assess whether SE positivity predicts cancer death.

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

Catheterization 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.

The Verification of Co‐Axiality of the Three Self‐Expanding Transcatheter Aortic Valve Systems According to the Difference in Shaft Spine

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...

Does contrast echocardiography induce increases in markers of myocardial necrosis, inflammation and oxidative stress suggesting myocardial injury?

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2005
Background Contrast echocardiography is a precise tool for the non-invasive assessment of myocardial function and perfusion. Side effects of contrast echocardiography resulting from contrast-agent induced myocardial micro-lesions have been found in ...

Growth differentiation factor‐15 and N‐terminal pro‐BNP in acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 888-899, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be an increasingly common health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Elevated levels of Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF15) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) are reportedly associated with poor clinical outcomes in a broad range of ...

Metabolic and cardiac adaptation to chronic pharmacologic blockade of facilitative glucose transport in murine dilated cardiomyopathy and myocardial ischemia [PDF]

, 2018
GLUT transgenic and knockout mice have provided valuable insight into the role of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) in cardiovascular and metabolic disease, but compensatory physiological changes can hinder interpretation of these models.
