Predictors of acute kidney injury after coronary artery surgery in Jordanians
Conclusion Emergency coronary surgery, mitral regurgitation, prolonged inotropic support, and stroke or transient ischemic attack are independent predictors of acute kidney injury following coronary bypass surgery. Further studies involving patients with isolated coronary bypass surgery as well as valve and combined surgeries may be necessary to complete our understanding of this subject.

Use of an Automated Suture Fastening Device in Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement
Conclusions In mAVR, the CK device was associated with reduced aortic cross-clamp time while providing equivalent clinical outcomes. Larger studies are needed to confirm the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of the CK device in minimally invasive aortic valve surgery.
