The efficacy of different modes of analgesia in postoperative pain management and early mobilization in postoperative cardiac surgical patients: A systematic review

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2018
Cardiac surgery induces severe postoperative pain and impairment of pulmonary function, increases the length of stay (LOS) in hospital, and increases mortality and morbidity; therefore, evaluation of the evidence is needed to assess the comparative ...

A Rare Case of Anterior Papillary Muscle Rupture Following Acute Non‐ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Sudden hemodynamic deterioration after myocardial infarction should prompt immediate evaluation for papillary muscle rupture, even in the absence of a murmur or large‐vessel occlusion. Acute severe mitral regurgitation from papillary muscle rupture may mimic recurrent ischemia, and early echocardiography with prompt surgical intervention can ...

Breathless and Beyond: Anterior Mediastinal Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor as a Rare Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Manifestation

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) can rarely present as anterior mediastinal masses in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), causing respiratory symptoms and diagnostic challenges. Multidisciplinary evaluation, including biopsy and imaging, is essential for diagnosis, with surgical resection as the primary treatment ...

Percutaneous Versus Surgical Cannulation for Veno‐Arterial Extracorporeal Life Support: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is a critical intervention in the management of severe cardiac and respiratory failure. Among the commonly used cannulation techniques, percutaneous cannulation (PC) and surgical cannulation (SC) are most prevalent; however, their comparative safety and effectiveness remain under debate ...

Impact of Combined Additional Resections on the Surgical Outcomes of Robot‐Assisted Resection of Thymic Epithelial Tumors

Journal of Surgical Oncology, Volume 133, Issue 3, Page 382-388, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Robot‐assisted thoracoscopy (RATS) is rapidly emerging as the preferred approach for the resection of thymic epithelial tumors (TET). Current challenges include the role of RATS in locally advanced disease and combined additional resections.

The Thymus Regeneration Paradox: The Search for Stemness in an Involuting Organ

Immunological Reviews, Volume 338, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The thymus is emerging as a model for studying organ regeneration and stem cell biology. While research has long focused on how antigen‐presenting cells shape the T cell repertoire, recent discoveries unveil a far richer cellular landscape that challenges long‐held views of thymus structure and function. This review traces the history of early

Safety Outcomes of Hybrid Open Chest Transvenous Lead Extraction: A Multicenter Experience

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 247-256, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hybrid open chest transvenous lead extraction (TLE), combining surgical and endovascular techniques, may be utilized in patients requiring concomitant cardiac surgery or with high‐risk features for endovascular extraction. Outcome data in this population remains sparse. Aims To evaluate procedural outcomes and identify predictors of

Ca2+/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II and protein kinase G independently contribute to acutely enhance myocardial compliance with stretch

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, March 2026.
Abstract The heart constantly adapts to acute hemodynamic load by increasing contractility and stretch‐induced compliance (SIC). The latter involves titin phosphorylation, notably by cGMP‐dependent protein kinase (PKG). Given that Ca2+/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) also phosphorylates titin and is activated under acute stress via ...
