Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.

Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Mitral Anterior Leaflet Perforation Due to Jet Flow in Aortic Valve Insufficiency [PDF]
Mitral valve disease is one of the most common pathologies of heart valve diseases. Mitral regurgitation may develop due to pathologies in the valve apparatus (primary regurgitation) or due to pathologies related to the atrium and/or ventricle (secondary

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

Abstract Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...

Lung Perfusion in Clinical Mitral Valve Surgery
When we surveyed the medical literature, we noted that there is little material addressing the use of lung perfusion during clinical mitral valve surgery. In light of this reality, we would like to point out that pulmonary hypertension is seen frequently

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Implantation in Open Heart Surgery: An Off-Label Technique [PDF]
Extensive mitral annulus calcifications are considered a contraindication for valve surgery. We describe the case of a 76-year-old female with severe mitral and aortic stenosis associated with extensive calcifications of the heart.

Totally Endoscopic Mitral and Aortic Valve Surgery
This video describes one of the authors’ initial series of combined mitral and aortic valve surgery and highlights the steps involved for an endoscopic approach. The authors hypothesize that this technique could result in lower ventilation times, less
