Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.

Hospital‐Level Variations in Outcomes and Readmissions Among Patients With STEMI and Cardiogenic Shock Receiving Mechanical Circulatory Support: Insights From a National Cohort

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The utilization of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients presenting with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) has increased substantially in recent years. However, it remains unclear whether the spectrum of MCS devices available and the type of hospital in which patients are ...

Surgical Outcomes of Centrifugal Continuous-Flow Implantable Left Ventricular Assist Devices: Heartmate 3 versus Heartware Ventricular Assist Device

Journal of Chest Surgery
Background: Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are widely employed as a therapeutic option for end-stage heart failure. We evaluated the outcomes associated with centrifugal- flow LVAD implantation, comparing 2 device models: the Heartmate 3 (HM3)

Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Socio‐economic inequalities and heart failure morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and data synthesis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 927-941, April 2025.
Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between

Gut microbiota‐related modulation of immune mechanisms in post‐infarction remodelling and heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 942-954, April 2025.
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

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
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 ...
