Consecutive Emergency Carotid Artery Stenting and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe aortic stenosis (AS) carries a poor prognosis when symptomatic, particularly in cardiogenic shock (CS). Emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is rarely performed but may represent a rescue therapy. Coexistent carotid artery stenosis (CAS) further increases procedural risk.

The outcome of reoperative pulmonary endarterectomy surgery [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2018
OBJECTIVES: Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the treatment of choice for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH). Despite excellent outcomes following PEA, a small proportion of patients have residual proximal disease or present with recurrent chronic thromboembolic PH and may benefit from further surgery.

Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitor Use on Outcomes Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...

Targeting the Carotid Body Function With Big‐K+‐Channel Blocker ENA‐001 in Opioid‐Induced Respiratory Depression: A Scoping Review

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Opioids, most intravenous anesthetics and various illicit substances can cause fatal respiratory depression by depressing central respiratory networks. ENA‐001, a ventilatory modulator targeting the carotid bodies, has emerged as a potential countermeasure without impairing analgesia or hypnosis.

The Evolving Landscape of Pulmonary Hypertension Treatment: From Vasodilation to Disease Modification

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex disorder associated with significant morbidity and mortality. PH is characterized by an elevated pulmonary vascular load, leading to right ventricular dysfunction and remodeling, with right heart failure and premature death if left untreated.
