Clinical Reasoning: A 66-year-old man with recurrent multi-territory infarcts
A 66-year-old man was referred to our center for evaluation of recurrent infarcts in multiple vascular territories over the preceding 6 months (figure 1). The patient first presented with a 3-month, stuttering course of transient neurologic deficits, including right arm and leg hemiparesis, expressive aphasia, and right homonymous hemianopia. He was initially evaluated at a community Stroke Prevention Clinic. His medical history was significant for several classic vascular risk factors: coronary artery disease requiring a coronary artery bypass graft, dyslipidemia for which he was taking atorvastatin 20 mg daily, and obstr...

Protective effects of corticosteroids in coronary artery bypass graft surgery alone or combined with valvular surgery: an updated and comprehensive meta-analysis and systematic review
This systematic review with meta-analysis sought to determine the protective effects of corticosteroids on clinical outcomes following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Medline, Embase, Elsevier and Sciences online database as well as Google scholar literature were used for selecting appropriate studies with randomized controlled design. The effect sizes measured were odds ratio (OR) for categorical variables and weighted mean difference with 95% confidence interval (CI) for calculating differences between mean values of duration of hospitalization in intervention and control groups. Values of P < 0.1 for Q-test o...

Hybrid coronary revascularization versus coronary artery bypass grafting for multivessel coronary artery disease: systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusion:
Our meta-analysis indicates that HCR is feasible, safe and effective for the treatment of MCAD, with similar in-hospital and one-year follow-up outcome, significantly lower requirement of RBC transfusion, and faster recovery compared with CABG.

Effect of preoperative angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor on the outcome of coronary artery bypass graft surgery REVIEWS
The safety of the preoperative administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is still uncertain. This systematic review thus evaluated the effect of preoperative ACEIs on the clinical outcomes in patients undergoing CABG surgery. We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library and the Web of Science for randomized control trials or observational studies that compared the use of ACEIs with that of placebos before isolated CABG. Thirteen studies (3 randomized control trials and 10 observational studies) that included 31 390 patients met the e...

Epidemiology of coronary artery bypass grafting at the Hospital Beneficência Portuguesa, São Paulo
Conclusion: The profile of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery in this study is similar to other published studies. Introdução: O conhecimento da prevalência dos fatores de risco e comorbidades, bem como a evolução com complicações nos pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica, permite a comparação entre instituições e a comprovação de modificações no perfil de pacientes e na evolução pós-operatória ao longo do tempo. Objetivo: Conhecer o perfil (fatores de risco e comorbidades) e a evolução clínica (complicações) nos pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de ...

Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Reduces Early Stroke in Octogenarians: A Meta-Analysis of 18,000 Patients
Conclusions Coronary artery bypass in octogenarians can be performed safely with low early mortality. Although off-pump operations reduce the risk of early stroke, all other adverse events are comparable in on- and off-pump coronary artery bypass operations. Data regarding late mortality is at present limited; however, both on- and off-pump procedures appear to produce comparable survival.

Anticoagulation for stroke prevention in new atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graft surgery
The benefit of early anticoagulation for stroke prophylaxis in atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is uncertain. We therefore studied what proportion of ischemic strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation early after CABG surgery were potentially preventable by anticoagulation with warfarin.

Short-term clinical outcomes between intermittent cold versus intermittent warm blood cardioplegia in 2200 adult cardiac surgery patients.
CONCLUSION: The comparison of IWC and ICC blood cardioplegia in different cardiosurgical procedures showed no statistical significant difference in myocardial protection. The use of ICC, however, appeared overall associated with a slightly better clinical outcome except in patients undergoing urgent/emergent CABG where IWC led to a reduction in 30--day--mortality.

A retrospective analysis of myocardial preservation techniques during coronary artery bypass graft surgery: are we protecting the heart?
Conclusions:
Our retrospective analysis suggests that, compared to traditional methods of myocardial preservation, antegrade retrograde cardioplegia may reduce PMI in patients undergoing first time CABG surgery.

Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation After Thoracic Aortic Surgery
Conclusions Several risk factors contribute to the incidence of POAF after thoracic aortic surgery. We found that POAF significantly increased 30-day operative mortality (p < 0.0001). Our findings can be used to develop a risk stratification system for the prediction of POAF.

Preoperative atrial fibrillation and outcome in patients undergoing on-pump or off-pump coronary bypass surgery: lessons learned from the GOPCABE trial
CONCLUSIONS
AF at admission is a significant risk factor for elderly patients undergoing coronary bypass grafting. However, this risk is not altered by performing bypass grafting off pump.

Outcome of Early Revascularization Surgery in Patients with ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction
ConclusionsIn patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction who required emergency coronary artery bypass surgery, there was no difference in procedure complications or mortality between early (within 24 hours) or later (more than 24 hours). That was noted at one month and one year after the index myocardial infarction.
