Systematic review on left atrial appendage closure with the LAmbre device in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Percutaneous closure (LAAC) of the left atrial appendage (LAA) is an efficacious preventive procedure for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and considerable bleeding risk.

Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of the Left Atrial Appendage to Predict Thrombosis Risk [PDF]

, 2018
During Atrial Fibrillation (AF) more than 90% of the left atrial thrombi responsible for thromboembolic events originate in the left atrial appendage (LAA), a complex small sac protruding from the left atrium (LA). Current available treatments to prevent

Multi‐omics data mining combined with experimental validation reveals ferroptosis‐ and autophagy‐associated hub genes as diagnostic candidates and immune modulators in atherosclerosis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using the GSE225650 dataset, we performed differential expression gene (DEG) screening, Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis (WGCNA), and immune infiltration profiling on atherosclerosis (AS) samples, yielding 104 shared candidate genes. Subsequently, these 104 candidate genes were intersected with ferroptosis‑ and autophagy‑related gene sets ...

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Dual device intervention for stroke prevention and bradycardia: a case report

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease
Atrial fibrillation significantly increases the risk of thromboembolic events, necessitating anticoagulation for stroke prevention. However, patients with a history of intracranial hemorrhage pose unique management challenges, particularly regarding the

Does Left Atrial Appendage Amputation During Routine Cardiac Surgery Reduce Future Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke? [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose of Review: Stroke is the most feared complication of atrial fibrillation. To prevent stroke, left atrial appendage exclusion has been targeted, as it is the prevalent site for formation of heart thrombi during atrial fibrillation.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of left atrial appendage closure's influence on early and long-term mortality and stroke

JTCVS Open
Objective Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) concomitant to heart surgery in patients with underlying atrial fibrillation (AF) has gained attention because of long-term reduction of thromboembolic complications.

Device-Related Thrombus After Left Atrial Appendage Closure: Incidence, Predictors, and Outcomes

Circulation, 2018
Background: In patients with atrial fibrillation, left atrial appendage closure with the Watchman device prevents thromboembolism from the left atrial appendage; however, thrombus may form on the left atrial face of the device, and then potentially ...
