Successful Treatment of Large Left Ventricular Thrombosis During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO): A Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT We report a rare complication of left ventricular giant thrombus in a patient with fulminant myocarditis after venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy. This case report offers simple anticoagulant treatment experiences to eliminate significant LV thrombosis in patient undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, so that ...

Technical Considerations in the TCD Evaluation of Cerebral Circulatory Arrest in Death by Neurological Criteria

open access: yesJournal of Neuroimaging, Volume 35, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Ancillary testing is essential for diagnosing brain death/death by neurologic criteria (BD/DNC) when clinical determination (neurologic exam and apnea testing) cannot be fully or safely performed. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) has been recommended as an ancillary test; however, the technical descriptions have ...

Severe community‐acquired pneumonia compared to severe community‐acquired Acinetobacter baumannii pneumonia in Reunion Island: A retrospective study

open access: yesTropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 30, Issue 1, Page 43-50, January 2025.
Abstract Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) has emerged in the last decades as a cause of community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) in tropical and subtropical regions. We previously conducted the first investigation on this topic in France with a case series of severe CAP‐Ab in Reunion Island over an eight‐year period.

The Effect of Vasopressin on 90‐Day Mortality in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock: A Retrospective Cohort Study Using Propensity Score‐Weighted Analysis

open access: yesCardiovascular Therapeutics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) may lead to a refractory vasoplegic state that requires vasopressin on top of norepinephrine. Vasopressin has been available in France since January 2022. However, data assessing the clinical impact of vasopressin in CS are very scarce.

Fulminant Cardiac Sarcoidosis Successfully Treated With Aggressive Immunosuppressive Therapy

open access: yesCase Reports in Cardiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background: The clinical course of cardiac sarcoidosis is typically subacute, and fulminant cases requiring mechanical circulatory support are rare. Here, we report the case of a patient with pathologically diagnosed cardiac sarcoidosis who presented with fulminant myocarditis and whose cardiac function was improved by aggressive immunosuppressive ...
