ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiac surgery in infants often triggers a severe inflammatory response. The role of biomarkers in predicting clinical outcomes in this group of patients has been debated in the literature. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of 20 inflammatory biomarkers, in combination with clinical data, for acute kidney ...

Levosimendan in Regional Myocardial Ischemia
Levosimendan is a new positive inotropic agent with anxillary vasodilating effects. It increases heart rate, stroke volume, and cardiac output and decreases systemic, pulmonary and coronary artery vascular resistance as well as filling pressures [1]. Its mode of action is believed to involve a unique calcium sensitizing effect: it binds to Troponin C ...

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.

Bibliometric analysis of levosimendan
BACKGROUND: Levosimendan (LEVO), a calcium sensitizer and adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium channel opener, has been widely used for decades in medical and surgical patients for advanced heart failure (HF), right ventricular failure, cardiogenic shock, takotsubo cardiomyopathy, pulmonary hypertension, and so on. Currently, as the limited scope

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.
