Impact of Procedure Volume on the Outcomes of Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement
CONCLUSION: Patients treated in very low volume centers (≤25 operations/year) had a similar risk regarding in-hospital mortality and most complications compared with very high-volume centers (>100 operations/year). Only in the case of acute kidney injury, very high-volume centers showed better outcomes than very low volume centers. Therefore, surgical aortic valve replacement can be performed safely independent of case volume.PMID:35917823 | DOI:10.1055/s-0042-1754352

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

Ventricular arrhythmia burden in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator and remote patient monitoring during different time intervals of the COVID-19 pandemic
ConclusionsThe lockdown measures necessary to reduce the risk of infection during the COVID-19 pandemic, led to a reduction of in-person patient visits, but did not result in a deterioration of the arrhythmic and clinical condition of ICD patients with remote patient monitoring.

Prevalence of peripheral arterial disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and risk factors in the Hamburg City Health Study: A Cross-Sectional Analysis
CONCLUSION: In this large population-based cohort study of 10,000 subjects from Hamburg, Germany, a strikingly high prevalence of PAD was revealed. Almost 45% suffered from any index disease, while AAA was only diagnosed in 1.3% of males and 0.2% of females. The high prevalence of atherosclerotic disease and associated cardiovascular risk factors underline that it is essential to increase awareness and fuel efforts for secondary prevention.PMID:36634745 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2023.01.002

Outcomes of endovascular repair of infrarenal penetrating aortic ulcers
Conclusions: According to this registry data, endovascular repair of PAU is technically feasible with acceptable perioperative outcomes, but further studies investigating mid- and long-term data are needed before invasive treatment of PAU disease in an elderly and comorbid patient population should be recommended.PMID:36880201 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001060

Circulating ketone bodies and cardiovascular outcomes: the MESA study
CONCLUSION: The study found that elevated endogenous KB in a healthy community-based population is associated with a higher rate of CVD and mortality. Ketone bodies could serve as a potential biomarker for cardiovascular risk assessment.PMID:36881667 | DOI:10.1093/eurheartj/ehad087

Bioimpedance based determination of cardiac index does not show enough trueness for point of care use in patients with systolic heart failure
AbstractCardiac output (CO) is a key parameter in diagnostics and therapy of heart failure (HF). The thermodilution method (TD) as gold standard for CO determination is an invasive procedure with corresponding risks. As an alternative, thoracic bioimpedance (TBI) has gained popularity for CO estimation as it is non-invasive. However, systolic heart failure (HF) itself might worsen its validity. The present study validated TBI against TD.  In patients with and without systolic HF (LVEF ≤ 50% or>  50% and NT-pro-BNP <  125 pg/ml, respectively) right heart catheterization including TD was performed. TBI (Ta...

More Europeans Died Because of Heat in 2022 Than Any Year in Recorded History
As the Earth continues to warm, the rising temperatures are contributing to a number of health conditions that are in turn driving up mortality. And for the first time, scientists have figured out a more detailed way to estimate how many deaths can be attributed to heat. In a paper published in Nature Medicine, researchers in Spain and France calculated that more than 61,000 deaths in Europe could be blamed on the heat during the summer of 2022, the hottest summer on record for the continent. (At least until the readings from 2023 are analyzed later this year.) [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] “We are pro...
