Percutaneous endocardial alginate–hydrogel injection in the treatment of heart failure: First‐in‐human study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Using EndoWings™ and XDROP™, we developed a percutaneous minimally invasive technique for sequential circumferential alginate hydrogel injection into LV free mid‐wall. This human study assessed its safety/feasibility in HFrEF patients, with personalised biomechanical models.

Is It an Intrapericardial Mass or a Localized Pericardial Effusion? A Case Report of Tuberculous Pericarditis Evaluated by Multimodal Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Tuberculous pericarditis is a common type of pericarditis, but it is difficult to be diagnosed. The application of combined transesophageal echocardiography, contrast echocardiography, and CT multimodal imaging provides sufficient clinical diagnosis basis and guidance for distinguishing encapsulated pericardial effusion or mass.

Clinical outcomes of transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair in patients with functional mitral regurgitation and pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
This study reveals that patients with PH have worse clinical outcomes, in terms of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and the composite endpoint of HF hospitalization and death at 1‐year follow‐up, compared with patients without PH. In particular, the hemodynamic subgroup of combined post‐ and pre‐capillary PH is associated with worse clinical ...

Migraine and patent foramen ovale: correlation, coexistence, dependence. A narrative review

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Plain Language Summary This review looked at what scientists know about the connection between migraine and a small heart opening called a patent foramen ovale (PFO). It showed that people with migraine, especially with aura, often have PFO, but it is not certain whether closing this heart opening helps prevent strokes in these patients.
