Correlation of neck circumference, coronary calcification severity and cardiovascular events in Chinese elderly patients with acute coronary syndromes
CONCLUSIONS: NC is closely associated with MetS and its components, coronary calcification and lesion degree, and MACEs. NC could be used as surrogate of CACS to predict the coronary condition and prognosis of elderly patients with ACS.PMID:37679211 | DOI:10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117242

Inflammation and immunomodulatory therapies influence the relationship between ATP-binding cassette A1 membrane transporter-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity and coronary atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis
CONCLUSION: ABCA1-CEC associated with decreased atherosclerosis in patients with below-median baseline and time-averaged CRP and bDMARD use. Conversely, ABCA1-CEC associated with increased plaque in those with higher CRP, corticosteroid users, methotrexate nonusers, and bDMARD nonusers. While in well-treated and controlled disease ABCA1-CEC appears atheroprotective, in uncontrolled RA its action may be masked or fail to counteract the inflammation-driven proatherogenic state.PMID:37520890 | PMC:PMC10371792 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtauto.2023.100209

Statins influence the relationship between ATP-binding cassette A1 membrane transporter-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity and coronary atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis
CONCLUSION: In patients with RA, higher ABCA1-CEC may reflect a proatherogenic state, associated with enhanced cardiovascular risk. Statin use may unmask the protective impact of ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux on plaque formation, progression and cardiovascular risk.PMID:37484708 | PMC:PMC10362327 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtauto.2023.100206

Atherosclerosis on CT coronary angiography and risk of long-term cardiovascular events post liver transplantation
CONCLUSION: The standardized CAD-RADS classification on CTCA predicted the occurrence of cardiovascular outcomes following LT, with a potential to increase utilization of preventive cardiovascular therapies.PMID:37432891 | DOI:10.1097/LVT.0000000000000215

Contribution Of Mitral Valve Atrioventricular Plane Displacement To The Stroke Volume In Patients With Severe Mitral Regurgitation
Introduction: Longitudinal shortening measured as atrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD) represents a piston-like movement of the base of the ventricles toward the apex during the cardiac cycle. Prior studies using echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated AVPD to account for a large part of the left ventricular (LV) stroke volume (SV) in athletes, healthy controls, and heart failure patients. We sought to validate the use of cardiac computed tomography (CCT) to measure the AVPD and subsequently explore the contribution of the AVPD towards overall LV SV in patients with functional and primary...

Transapical Transcatheter Mitral Valve Implantation with the Tendyne Valve: The Swiss Experience
CONCLUSION: Transcatheter mitral valve implantation with Tendyne is feasible to treat polymorbid patients suffering from complex mitral valve disease as well as patients with previous mitral interventions. Perioperative risk was acceptable and procedural success high.PMID:37327913 | DOI:10.1055/s-0043-1769099
