ABSTRACT Background The Impella CP is a catheter‐based ventricular assist device used in the management of cardiogenic shock and to support high‐risk percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Despite its growing use, the effects of Impella CP on coronary flow dynamics as measured by intracoronary continuous thermodilution have not been fully ...

Systemic therapy‐based split‐course stereotactic body radiation therapy
Abstract Purpose Given the therapeutic toxicity of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the dose of chemotherapy is always limited. Hence, the question of how to administer adequate chemotherapy to synchronize stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treatment strategy for maximizing the benefits of neoadjuvant therapy to improve prognosis is a challenging ...

Metabolic changes during cardiac regeneration in the axolotl
Abstract Background The axolotl is a prominent model organism of heart regeneration due to its ability to anatomically and functionally repair the heart after an injury that mimics human myocardial infarction. In humans, such an injury leads to permanent scarring. Cardiac regeneration has been linked to metabolism and the oxygenation state, but so far,

Clinical trials have shown that functional assessment of coronary stenosis by fractional flow reserve (FFR) improves clinical outcomes. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) complements conventional angiography, and is a powerful tool to assess atherosclerotic

Abstract A 31‐year‐old male presented with unexplainable symptoms of heart failure including recurrent fatigue and orthopnoea after total arch replacement for type A aortic dissection 2 months ago. Computed tomography angiography detected a severe intra‐luminal stenosis, and we successfully implanted a balloon‐expandable stent to dilate the stenosis ...

Abstract Aims Although predominant in routine practice, non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock (NICS) remains underrepresented in past studies, mainly focused on ischaemic cardiogenic shock (CS). This study aims to describe the current NICS picture and define its independent correlates of short‐ and long‐term outcomes.

Abstract Aims Refractory electrical storm (ES) is a life‐threatening condition in which heart transplantation (HTx) can be proposed. Nevertheless, the shortage of donors and subsequent outcomes question its place as a rescue strategy. We aim to describe the prognosis of ES patients listed for HTx but not transplanted.

Models of the cardiac L‐type calcium current: A quantitative review
We discuss 73 published models of mammalian ICaL and find differences in gating kinetics, electrochemical driving force, and sensitivity to internal calcium concentrations, leading to considerable variability in their predictions. Abstract The L‐type calcium current (ICaL) plays a critical role in cardiac electrophysiology, and models of ICaL are vital

Socio‐economic status and the effect of guideline‐directed medical therapy in the STRONG‐HF study
Abstract Aims Acute heart failure (AHF) impacts millions globally, with outcomes varying based on socio‐economic status (SES). Methods SES measured by annual household income, years of education and medical insurance coverage. Each patient's income and education level relative to the median or mean, respectively, in the country was calculated, and ...
