High‐risk cardiac patients may benefit from timely temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) implantation to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and circulatory support, thus enabling them to undergo life‐saving thoracic surgery. CPB: cardiopulmonary bypass; IABP: intra‐aortic balloon pump; tMCS: temporary mechanical circulatory ...

Treatment options for immune‐related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors
Abstract The immunotherapy revolution with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) started with the clinical use of the first ICI, ipilimumab, in 2011. Since then, the field of ICI therapy has rapidly expanded — with the FDA approval of 10 different ICI drugs so far and their incorporation into the therapeutic regimens of a range of malignancies.

Abstract Background and Purpose The increasing number of cancer survivors has caused growing concern over chemotherapy‐induced cardiotoxicity. This study aimed to investigate a novel human model of cardiotoxicity and explore cardioprotection. Experimental Approach Living myocardial slices (LMS) were obtained from explanted end‐stage heart failure ...
