Impact of pericardial calcification on early postoperative outcomes after pericardiectomy: a retrospective observational study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Owing to the lack of understanding of the clinical significance of pericardial calcification during pericardiectomy, whether pericardial calcification should be considered when determining the optimal timing for pericardiectomy is debatable ...

Post‐Myocardial Infarction Remodeling and Hyperkinetic Remote Myocardium in Sheep Measured by Cardiac MRI Feature Tracking

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 1323-1335, March 2025.
Background Cardiac MRI feature tracking (FT) allows objective assessment of segmental left ventricular (LV) function following a myocardial infarction (MI), but its utilization in sheep, where interventions can be tested, is lacking. Purpose To apply and validate FT in a sheep model of MI and describe post‐MI LV remodeling.

Duration of Disease and Long‐Term Outcomes in Patients With Difficult‐To‐Treat Recurrent Pericarditis: A Chronic Condition Treated With Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs, Colchicine, Corticosteroids, and Anti–Interleukin‐1 Agents

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2025.
Objective We aimed to investigate the remission rate and disease duration in idiopathic or post–cardiac injury pericarditis and risk factors for disease duration and anti–interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) agent discontinuation. Methods This was a multicenter, longitudinal, observational study including 370 patients (51.4% female).

Influence of pericardium on ventricular mechanical interdependence in an isolated biventricular working pig heart model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 2, Page 285-300, 15 January 2025.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of the experimental workflow and main results of left and right ventricular outflows obtained before and after ablation of the pericardium, on isolated pig hearts perfused in biventricular working mode. Left and right ventricular haemodynamics were assessed in response to changes in left and right atrial ...

Acute Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Cerebrovascular Strokes After Cardiac Surgery: Incidence, Predictors, and Outcomes

open access: yesCritical Care Research and Practice, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Many studies have attempted to determine the incidence, predictors, and outcomes of cerebrovascular stroke after cardiac surgery, with different, sometimes contradictory, results because of differences in population risk profiles, study design, and surgical details.

Pneumococcal Pyopericardium With Xiphoid Osteomyelitis in HIV/AIDS: A Rare but Potentially Fatal Complication

open access: yesCase Reports in Cardiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Purulent pericarditis is a rare, life‐threatening condition that has become exceedingly uncommon due to widespread use of antibiotics. However, immunocompromised patients remain susceptible to such opportunistic infections. It is typically caused by direct extension or hematogenous spread from a secondary bacterial source.
