ABSTRACT We present a 74‐year‐old female with a history of mechanical aortic and mitral valve implantation and non‐Hodgkin lymphoma. She presented with right sided heart failure due to severe functional tricuspid regurgitation and was treated with transcatheter TricValve bicaval system implantation.

An unimpaired neurological evaluation is essential for detecting delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients. Nimodipine is currently the only drug approved for DCI prevention. Intravenous nimodipine infusion contains 23.7 vol% ethanol as an excipient, resulting in up to 45 g of ethanol being infused daily ...

Dynamics of primary cilia in endothelial and mesenchymal cells throughout mouse lung development
Abstract Cilia are specialized structures found on a variety of mammalian cells, with variable roles in the transduction of mechanical and biological signals (by primary cilia, PC), as well as in the generation of fluid flow (by motile cilia). Their critical role in the establishment of a left–right axis in early development is well described, as well ...

Abstract Patients with acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) are usually admitted to hospital for management. There is growing interest in delivering intravenous (IV) diuretic therapy at home, in the community or at hospital day‐care units; the safety and effectiveness of outpatient‐based management (OPM) for ADHF has not been established.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Hemodynamics of Hypertension [PDF]
HE HEMODYNAMICS OF HYPERTENSION have not been a popular subject for review. In 1938 Wiggers (246) summarized primarily the excellent work of his own group on this subject. It is fitting that a fresh attempt be made to correlate the hemodynamic features of hypertension, particularly as it is evidenced in man, with current physioIogica1 concepts. In such
