Macrocytosis in Mitochondrial DNA Deletion Syndromes
Acta Haematol. 2023 Feb 10. doi: 10.1159/000529311. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLarge single mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) deletion syndrome is a rare inborn error of metabolism with variable heteroplasmy levels and clinical phenotype among affected individuals. Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) is the most common phenotype in adults with this form of mitochondrial disease [1-2]. The common CPEO clinical manifestations are ptosis and ophthalmoplegia. More variable phenotypic manifestations of CPEO (CPEO plus) include involvement of the peripheral nervous system and myopathy. Here, we describe a 62-year-old ...

Cost-effectiveness of targeted screening for non-valvular atrial fibrillation in the United Kingdom in older patients using digital approaches

Routine cerebral embolic protection in transcatheter aortic valve implantation: rationale and design of the randomised British Heart Foundation PROTECT-TAVI trial
EuroIntervention. 2023 Jan 26:EIJ-D-22-00713. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-22-00713. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTranscatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an established treatment for aortic stenosis. Cerebral embolic protection (CEP) devices may impact periprocedural stroke by capturing debris destined for the brain. However, there is a lack of high-quality randomised trial evidence supporting the use of CEP during TAVI. The British Heart Foundation (BHF) PROTECT-TAVI trial will address whether the routine use of CEP reduces the incidence of stroke in patients undergoing TAVI. BHF PROTECT-TAVI is a prospective, open-label...
