13 The shock team approach: the rationale and evidence
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is defined as a state of ineffective cardiac output caused by a cardiac disorder that results in both clinical and biochemical manifestations of inadequate tissue perfusion.1 Among patients presenting with CS, there is a spectrum of disease whereby some patients can be stabilised with pharmacologic interventions alone, while others require escalation to mechanical circulatory support (MCS).2 As patients and treatment options both become increasingly complex, comprehensive critical care may be best delivered in disease-specific service line ICUs.2 The model of the cardiac ICU has transitioned over tim...

Left ventricular vortex formation time in elite athletes: novel predictor of myocardial performance
Conclusion There was no significant difference between VFT at rest and immediately post-exercise. However, VFT at rest correlated with immediate post-exercise augmented systolic and early diastolic tissue Doppler indicators of myocardial performance in elite athletes.

Improved Cardiac Function Following Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Using Exercise Preconditioning and L-Arginine Supplementation via Oxidative Stress Mitigation and Angiogenesis Amelioration
Cardiovasc Toxicol. 2022 May 22. doi: 10.1007/s12012-022-09752-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe formation of new blood vessels in the ischemic area is a fundamental strategy that can reduce myocardial infarction-induced damage by mitigating hypoxia. This paper set out to investigate the cardioprotective effect of high-intensity interval training preconditioning and L-arginine supplementation on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion-induced angiogenesis and oxidative stress. 50 male rats were randomly distributed into following groups: (1) Sham, (2) Sedentary control (Con, n = 10), 3) L-arginine treatment (La, n = 10), (4) Hi...

Peak O2 ‐pulse predicts exercise training‐induced changes in peak V̇O2 in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
ConclusionsIn patients with HFpEF, the easily measurable peak O2-pulse seems to be a good indicator of the potential for improving peak V ̇O2 through exercise training. While changes in submaximal exercise tolerance were independent of baseline peak O2-pulse, patients with high O2-pulse may need to use additional therapies to significantly increase peak V ̇O2.

Normative values of non-invasively assessed RV function and pulmonary circulation coupling for pre-participation screening derived from 497 male elite athletes
ConclusionThe reference values for pulmonary circulation coupling determined in this study could be used to interpret and distinguish physiological from pathological cardiac remodeling in male elite athletes.

Rapid lipid-laden plaque identification in intravascular optical coherence tomography imaging based on time-series deep learning
ConclusionsThese encouraging results suggest that this method will allow for high throughput video-rate atherosclerotic plaque assessment through automated tissue characterization for in vivo imaging by providing faster screening to assist in guided decision making during percutaneous coronary interventions.PMID:36307914 | DOI:10.1117/1.JBO.27.10.106006

One year of isometric exercise training for blood pressure management in men: a prospective randomized controlled study
Objective: Isometric exercise training (IET) over 4–12 weeks is an effective antihypertensive intervention. However, blood pressure (BP) reductions are reversible if exercise is not maintained. No work to date has investigated the long-term effects of IET on resting BP. Methods: We randomized 24 unmedicated patients with high-normal BP to a 1-year wall squat IET intervention or nonintervention control group. Resting BP and various clinically important haemodynamic variables, including heart rate (HR), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO) and total peripheral resistance (TPR) were measured pre and post the...

Exercise for the Prevention of Anthracycline-induced Functional Disability and Cardiac Dysfunction: The BReast Cancer Randomized EXercise InTervention (BREXIT) Study
Conclusions: In women with early-stage BC undergoing AC, 12-months of ExT did not attenuate functional disability but provided large and clinically meaningful benefits on VO2peak and cardiac reserve.
