Right ventricle to pulmonary artery coupling as a prognostic factor in tricuspid regurgitation: A systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The TAPSE/SPAP ratio is associated with worse prognosis in patients with significant tricuspid regurgitation and could indicate at‐risk patients. The exact cutoff value for RV‐PA uncoupling remains difficult to define and in available studies ranged from 0.26 to 0.49 mm/mmHg.

Effect of inferior caval valve implantation on circulating immune cells and inflammatory mediators in severe tricuspid regurgitation

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Abstract Background Interventional valve implantation into the inferior vena cava (CAVI) lowers venous congestion in patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR). We evaluated the impact of a reduction of abdominal venous congestion following CAVI on circulating immune cells and inflammatory mediators.

Haemodynamic consequences of acute pulmonary embolism predict risk of CTPA‐related acute kidney injury

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract summarizes that normotensive APE patients with elevated NT‐proBNP levels and higher BOVA scores are at increased risk of AKI and should be closely monitored for renal injury during hospitalization. Abstract Introduction Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is an important study in the diagnosis of acute pulmonary ...

First evaluation of a novel pulsatile LVAD: Feasibility and haemodynamic impact in acute heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The pulsatile ventricular assist platform (pVAP) was connected to a membrane pump in six large swine models. The system, driven by a conventional intra‐aortic balloon pump console (IABP), was utilized to drain left atrial blood during systole and to eject the collected blood back into the ascending aorta during diastole.
