Retrograde chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention using single catheter: A single centre registry
CONCLUSIONS: Retrograde CTO PCI using single catheter is a technically challenging procedure when compared with other CTO PCI. Our study demonstrated acceptable outcomes which is comparable to other antegrade and retrograde CTO PCI registries.PMID:34474754 | PMC:PMC8424288 | DOI:10.1016/j.ihj.2021.06.006

Short- and long-term outcome of patients with spontaneous echo contrast or thrombus in the left atrial appendage in the era of the direct acting anticoagulants
ConclusionEven in the DOAC era, the occurrence of thrombus or SEC in the LAA is associated with a high rate of MACCE. Our study suggests that the choice of DOAC therapy may have an impact on long-term survival.Graphic abstract

Duration and clinical outcome of dual antiplatelet therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention: a retrospective cohort study using a medical information database from Japanese hospitals
In conclusion, early DAPT discontinuation is more likely in patients at high bleeding risk, but may influence the occurrence of ischemic events in these patients. Determination of DAPT duration should take into account potential ischemic risk, even in patients at high bleeding risk.

Impact of glomerular filtration rate estimation on cardiovascular events in elderly patients undergoing coronary angiography
Conclusions Kidney function, as manifested by eGFR, has a graded inverse association with the burden of cardiovascular comorbidities and long-term adverse events in elderly patients undergoing coronary angiography.

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 ...

Antiplatelet Therapy in End-stage Renal Disease Patients on Maintenance Dialysis: a State-of-the-art Review
AbstractPatients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance dialysis have an increased risk of ischaemic events, such as recurrent myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Potent antiplatelet therapy may help mitigate this risk. Nonetheless, ERSD patients are also at increased risk of bleeding due to their complex vascular milieu, which limits the routine use of potent P2Y12 inhibitors. Moreover, these patients are often underrepresented or excluded from major clinical trials leaving a significant gap in existing knowledge. Understanding the mechanisms of this paradox may serve as a benchmark for the development of E...

Incidence and prognostic impact of the calcified nodule in coronary artery disease patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis
In conclusion, CN was observed in about 60% of the CAD patients with ESRD and was associated with duration of dialysis and worse prognosis.

Temporal trends in incidence, patient characteristics, microbiology and in-hospital mortality in patients with infective endocarditis: a contemporary analysis of 86,469 cases between 2007 and 2019
ConclusionsIn this contemporary cohort, incidence of IE increased over time and in-hospital mortality remained high (~  15%). Whilestaphylococcus andstreptococcus were the predominant microorganisms, bacteremia withstaphylococcus and Gram-negative pathogens were associated with higher likelihood of in-hospital mortality. Our results highlight the need for new preventive strategies and interventions in patients with IE.Graphical abstractInfective endocarditis in Germany.BCNIE blood culture-negative infective endocarditis,IE infective endocarditis
