10 Pre-operative multimodality imaging for LVAD
Cardiac imaging, particularly echocardiography, plays a critical role in patient selection and in predicting post-operative complications. There are several pre-implantation imaging red flags that guide intraoperative concomitant procedures consideration and may predict post-operative outcomes.
The pre-operative imaging should include assessment of the left ventricle (LV), especially with attention to the LV cavity size, the presence of prominent trabecular or LV thrombus which may lead to LV assist device (LVAD) suction events, inflow cannula obstruction or thromboembolic events.
Assessment of right ventricular (RV) funct...

Abdominal aortic aneurysm ultrasound screening in men with risk factors in Primary Care
CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of aneurysms in our sample was 2.6%, which was lower than expected. The wide use of ultrasound and its progressive generalisation in the Primary Care setting should lead to a decrease in the number of undiagnosed AAA.PMID:34920344 | DOI:10.1016/j.aprim.2021.102234

Additive Effects of Genetic Interleukin-6 Signaling Downregulation and Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Lowering on Cardiovascular Disease: A 2 ×2 Factorial Mendelian Randomization Analysis
Conclusions Genetically downregulated IL-6 signaling and genetically lowered LDL-C are associated with additively lower lifetime risk of cardiovascular disease. Future trials should explore combined IL-6 inhibition and LDL-C lowering treatments for cardiovascular prevention.PMID:34927447 | DOI:10.1161/JAHA.121.023277

Arterial Atherosclerosis: Vascular Surgery Interventions
Am Fam Physician. 2022 Jan 1;105(1):65-72.ABSTRACTAtherosclerotic vascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerotic stenosis of the internal carotid or intracranial arteries causes up to 15% of strokes. Peripheral artery disease affects up to one in five people in the United States who are 60 years and older and nearly one-half of those who are 85 years and older. Renal artery stenosis may affect up to 5% of people with isolated hypertension and up to 40% of people with other atherosclerotic diseases. All patients with atherosclerotic vascular disease should receive a comprehensive program of guidelin...

Prospective Comparison of Plasma Biomarker and Traditional Risk Factor Profiles for Incident Isolated Atherosclerotic Disease and Incident Isolated Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Conclusions: The data supports the view that components of vascular inflammation and cardiovascular stress drives AAA development, whereas glycated cross-links in abdominal aortic wall tissue may have a plausible role in reducing AAA risk in individuals with DM.PMID:35097031 | PMC:PMC8790118 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2021.818656

Athero-occlusive Disease Appears to be Associated with Slower Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Growth: An Exploratory Analysis of the TEDY Trial
CONCLUSION: In an exploratory analysis of a selective cohort from the TEDY trial, AOD was associated with slower AAA growth. Validation of these findings in other cohorts is needed.PMID:35277322 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2021.12.038

Assessment of Hypertension, Guideline-Directed Counseling, and Outcomes in the ACHD Population
AbstractGuidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension were published by the American Heart Association (AHA) in 2017. The prevalence of hypertension in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) under these guidelines has yet to be characterized. We sought to assess the prevalence, impact, and provider response to hypertension under current guidelines. Data were obtained retrospectively from records of routine clinic visits over a 10 year period. Potential hypertension-related adverse outcomes including stroke, myocardial infarction, surgical intervention for aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection, atrial fibri...

Postoperative management in patients with complex aortic aneurysms
J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino). 2022 Jun 10. doi: 10.23736/S0021-9509.22.12359-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPatients with complex aortic aneurysms (CAA) are often high risk due to advanced age and widespread atherosclerosis affecting numerous vascular territories. Therefore, a thorough perioperative evaluation is needed prior to performing in any type of aortic repair, regardless of whether an endovascular or open surgical approach is selected. Because these operations are technically demanding and often result in end organ ischemia, it is not surprising that complex aortic repair carries significant risk of morbidity and ...

Association of Physical Activity with Aortic Disease in Japanese Men and Women: The Japan Collaborative Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Greater time spent in sports participation was associated with a reduced risk of mortality from aortic aneurism in the Japanese population. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between physical activity and aortic dissection.PMID:35793980 | DOI:10.5551/jat.63416
