Mortality risk stratification for Takotsubo syndrome: Evaluating CRP measurement alongside the InterTAK prognostic score

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1427-1436, April 2025.
Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.

A study of intracoronary thrombolytic agents in high thrombus burden lesions during primary PCI

Indian Heart Journal
Objectives: High thrombus burden during Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention begets poor outcomes; there are several lacunas in the management of those patients.- The purpose of this study is to analyse the long-term outcomes of patients undergoing

Move beyond free radical theory of aging

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Free radicals play a dual, dose‐dependent role in aging. Low levels activate the key sensor adenosine 5'‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), promoting cell survival mechanisms like autophagy and enhancing mitochondrial health. High levels, however, push AMPK to initiate cell death pathways, such as apoptosis. This positions AMPK as a central

Beyond a Conduit: The Evolution of Functional Biliary Stents From Active Intervention to Enabling Platforms

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of functional biliary stents, outlining the paradigm shift from “active intervention” strategies that target stent failure to next‐generation “enabling platforms.” These platforms leverage biodegradable materials, 3D/4D printing, and smart sensors to achieve personalized, regenerative, and theranostic solutions ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Resolving Bivalirudin Interference on Fibrinogen Testing by the Use of Activated Carbon

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
The influences of bivalirudin on fibrinogen assays differ considerably. Activated carbon can effectively remove bivalirudin from plasma, thereby eliminating its interference in fibrinogen detection. ABSTRACT Background Direct thrombin inhibitors may lead to falsely low fibrinogen results.

Impact of Ceiling Suspended Shield Size on Primary Operator Radiation Dose During Coronary Angiography and Intervention

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Reducing radiation exposure to staff performing coronary angiography and intervention is an occupational health and safety priority for hospitals. We demonstrate that a larger lead acrylic shield, with lead rubber pleats on the lower edge will reduce radiation exposure to the cardiologist performing the procedure by approximately 40%. We recommend that

Impact of severe periodontitis and diabetes mellitus on recurrent cardiovascular outcomes

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This post hoc analysis of the Periodontitis and Coronary Heart Disease study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01045070) aimed to determine the association between diabetes and recurrent cardiovascular events (CVEs) in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and severe periodontitis.
