Treatment options for immune‐related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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.

Association between CMR‐derived hepatic T1‐time, tricuspid regurgitation and survival

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
We investigated the association between tricuspid regurgitation (TR) severity and hepatic T1‐time in 1029 patients undergoing cardiac MRI and echocardiography. Hepatic T1‐time increased progressively with TR severity and remained independently associated after adjusting for NT‐proBNP and right ventricular function. Both TR and hepatic T1‐time predicted

Ascitic Fluid Analysis Leading to the Diagnosis of Constrictive Pericarditis in 2 Patients

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2022
Although well documented, constrictive pericarditis is a rare entity and an uncommon cause of heart failure. A stiff and noncompliant pericardium creates the disease’s unique hemodynamics and leads to elevated venous pressures, hepatic sinusoidal ...

Patient and Procedural Factors Associated With Same‐Day Discharge Following Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: Insights From the DISRUPT‐AF Registry

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Same‐day discharge (SDD) after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) may improve patient satisfaction and optimize healthcare resources. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) offers a favorable safety profile, potentially enabling broader adoption of SDD strategies.
