Among 170,250 UK Biobank women (2006–2024), ever HRT use was associated with higher incident ASCVD risk (adjusted HR 1.13, 95% CI 1.08–1.18), largely driven by ischemic stroke. Associations were stronger in women ≤45 years and during perimenopause. Mediation via sex hormones, inflammatory markers, or lipids was minimal (<2%).

In selected patients with severe LV dysfunction, Impella‐supported non‐cardiac surgery may provide a temporary hemodynamic bridge to otherwise prohibitive procedures. Published evidence remains limited to a small number of highly selected cases, supporting technical feasibility rather than comparative benefit or generalizable safety.
