Prognostic value of triglyceride-glucose index for left ventricular remodeling in nondiabetic ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients
Conclusion: A high TyG index level may contribute to the prediction of LVR in nondiabetic STEMI patients undergoing successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention.PMID:38639732 | DOI:10.2217/bmm-2024-0015 (Source: Future Medicine: Biomarkers in Medicine)

Evaluation on mortality predictors after emergent percutaneous coronary intervention in acute myocardial infarction with ventricular arrhythmias: Details not to be ignored?
We have read the article “Predictors of 30-day survival after emergent percutaneous coronary intervention following ventricular tachyarrhythmias complicating acute myocardial infarction” by Kohei Ukita et al [1]. In the study Immediate CPR and single-vessel CAD were significant predictors of 30-day survival after emerge nt PCI following VF or pulseless VT complicating AMI in patients . In univariate analysis, absence of diabetes and low arterial lactate value were associated with 30-day survival. (Source: International Journal of Cardiology)

Clinical and economic outcomes of assigning percutaneous coronary intervention patients to contrast-sparing strategies based on the predicted risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury
CONCLUSIONS.: Assignment to contrast-sparing regimens at a predicted risk threshold close to the underlying incidence of CI-AKI is projected to result in significant clinical and economic benefits.PMID:38632967 | DOI:10.1080/13696998.2024.2334180 (Source: Journal of Medical Economics)

Isthmin-1 alleviates cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury through cGMP-PKG signaling pathway
CONCLUSION: ISM1 can protect against cardiac I/R injury through cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, and it is a promising therapeutic and predictive target of cardiac I/R injury.PMID:38637328 | DOI:10.1093/cvr/cvae077 (Source: Cell Research)

Internuclear ophthalmoplegia following radial artery cardiac catheterization approach: An unusual presentation
We report a rare case in a 47-year-old man presenting with diplopia after radial artery angioplasty. Although the symptoms were resolved after 60 days, diagnosing this obstacle is necessary to reduce the patient and physician's anxiety.PMID:38628413 | PMC:PMC11017003 | DOI:10.4103/sjopt.sjopt_2_23 (Source: Atherosclerosis)

A randomised multicentre study of angiography- versus physiologyguided percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing TAVI: design and rationale of the FAITAVI trial
EuroIntervention. 2024 Apr 15;20(8):e504-e510. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00679.ABSTRACTThe treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AVS) eligible for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is not supported by clinical evidence, and the role of physiology over anatomy as well as the timing of coronary intervention are not defined. FAITAVI (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03360591) is a nationwide prospective, open-label, multicentre, randomised controlled study comparing the angiography-guided versus the physiology-guided coronary revascularisation strategy in patients with combin...

Comprehensive Cardiac Rehabilitation Following Acute Myocardial Infarction Improves Clinical Outcomes Regardless of Exercise Capacity
CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive CR in patients with AMI effectively reduced the incidence of MACE regardless of initial exercise capacity. Cardiologists should actively encourage patients with low exercise capacity to participate in comprehensive CR.PMID:38631882 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0668 (Source: Circulation Journal)
