Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Engineered immunostimulatory H2O2‐producing microreactors driven by yeast as localized living cancer therapeutics

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Engineered yeast microreactors that produce H2O2 within tumors enable selective cancer cell killing while releasing immunostimulatory components, effectively suppressing local tumor growth and activating systemic antitumor immunity, with further efficacy enhanced by anti‐PD‐1 therapy and transarterial embolization.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Coronary fistula resembling patent ductus arteriosus

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
A 14-year-old girl, presenting with heart failure and a continuous murmur, similar to that of a patent arterial duct, was investigated using echocardiogram and cardiac catheterization revealing a left to right shunt throught a coronary artery fistulae ...

Calcified Plaque Detachment: Alternative Calcified Plaque Modification After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified plaque (CP) detachment (CD) and calcium fracture (CF) can occur following coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). The extent to which CF alone facilitates stent expansion during CP modification with IVL remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to investigate the clinical implications of IVL‐induced CD.

VERMONT μQFR: Diagnostic Accuracy of Murray Law‐Based 2D‐μQFR Compared to 3D‐μQFR and vFFR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Murray law‐based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR) is an angiography‐derived physiological index that utilizes a single angiographic projection with artificial intelligence‐guided vessel segmentation. Aims To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and time efficacy of 2D‐μQFR against wire‐based fractional flow reserve (FFR ≤ 0.80), compare ...

Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.
