Knowledge Gaps and Controversies on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in the Assessment of Pulmonary Vascular Disease: An Official Statement of the Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute Exercise and Right Ventricular Function Task Force

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Exercise testing has long been essential for evaluating diagnosis, prognosis, and functional status in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Recent advances have clarified its role in defining reference values and prognostic markers. Nonetheless, substantial knowledge gaps persist regarding the implementation of invasive cardiopulmonary exercise ...

Dextran vs. Crystalloid Priming Solution in Cardiac Surgery: A Randomized Trial on Acute Kidney Injury

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication following cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This is partly attributable to crystalloid‐based priming solutions causing both hemolysis and loss of oncotic pressure with tissue edema. While colloids like albumin and starches have not shown clear benefits, pilot

Obstetric outcome in women with congenital heart disease: A nationwide cohort in Sweden

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 7-17, January 2026.
In this large national case–control study in women with congenital heart disease, we showed an increased likelihood of giving birth prematurely, by cesarean section, and having a small‐for‐gestational‐age neonate compared to matched controls. Abstract Introduction Survival and healthcare for patients with congenital heart disease have improved, and the

Hemodynamic and microcirculatory early adaptations following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI): A physiological pilot study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 1, January 2026.
This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...

Albumin, urea‐to‐albumin ratio, or the albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio to predict outcomes in heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 1, January 2026.
Among 2061 hospitalized HFmrEF patients, low albumin, albumin‐to‐creatinine ratios (ACR), and elevated urea‐to‐albumin ratios (UAR) independently predicted long‐term all‐cause mortality, but not HF‐related rehospitalization. The UAR and ACR did not provide a clinically significant predictive advantage over albumin levels alone. Abstract Background This
