Pre-revascularization coronary wedge pressure as marker of adverse long-term left ventricular remodelling in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

Scientific Reports, 2018
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between coronary wedge pressure (CWP), measured as a marker of pre-procedural microvascular obstruction, and left ventricular remodelling in high-risk ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ...

Heart rate changes during the Valsalva maneuver in patients with isolated aortic insufficiency

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1997
To determine the possible relationship between left ventricular dilatation and heart rate changes provoked by the Valsalva maneuver (Valsalva ratio), we studied 9 patients with isolated chronic aortic insufficiency. Left ventricular systolic function was

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Predicting Coronary Occlusion Risk during Redo‐TAVR at First TAVR: Asymmetric Calcification Causes Failure

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Predicting coronary artery occlusion due to sinus sequestration (SS) during a second transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) procedure using pre‐procedural computed tomography (CT) after the first TAV replacement (TAVR) is underreported.

Myocardial Fibrosis Burden Predicts Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction and Is Associated With Age and Steroid Treatment Duration in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy exhibit progressive cardiac and skeletal muscle dysfunction. Based on prior data, cardiac dysfunction in Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients may be influenced by myocardial fibrosis and steroid ...

The Prognostic Impact of Multiple Adverse Events on Long‐Term Mortality Following Acute Myocardial Infarction

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adverse events after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are individually associated with poor outcomes, but the prognostic impact of the overlap of different event types occurring sequentially within the same patient remains uncertain.

Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves in Low‐Flow, Low‐Gradient Aortic Stenosis: Does Valve Type Matter?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The optimal choice between balloon‐expandable (BE) and self‐expanding (SE) transcatheter heart valves (THVs) in patients with low‐flow low‐gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains unclear.

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

Successful Management of a Complex Coronary Bifurcation Lesion in Acute Coronary Syndrome Using a Free‐Metal Approach

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 56‐year‐old male with non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and a complex thrombotic lesion at the ostial left circumflex artery (LCX), extending into bifurcating marginal branches. Due to the high risk of side branch occlusion, a stentless strategy using thrombus aspiration, the reverse wire technique, and ...
