Clinical value of echocardiography in evaluating hemodynamics and right ventricular function in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after balloon pulmonary angioplasty
CONCLUSIONS: The findings show that a single BPA procedure significantly improves RV volume load and reduces the pulmonary blood pressure in CTEPH patients in the short-term. However, BPA does not improve RV systolic function 24 hours after the procedure. The results indicate that evaluation of RV structural and function with echocardiography is an effective approach for non-invasive monitoring of patient status after BPA.PMID:35693626 | PMC:PMC9186241 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-21-1536

Impact of cardiovascular disease on in-hospital mortality in patients with COVID-19
Conclusion: COVID-19 patients with CVD comorbidites have a higher risk of in-hospital death. Optimal care and good control of CVD are essential in this patient group.

COPD and COVID-19: a dangerous association?
Conclusion: COPDs patients are mostly ederly men with comorbidities. The most effective treatment for them was stabilization of comorbidities and conventional oxygen and for the most severe Helmet-CPAP and NIV. In addition, COPD patients had no higher risk of mortality from COVID-19 than individuals without a pre-existing diagnosis of COPD.

Prevalence of cardiovascular disease in alpha-1 antrypsin deficiency
We present prevalence of CVD from 1158 patients with AATD who are prospectively followed up as part of the Birmingham AATD registry in the UK. All diagnoses come from either central NHS records or patient reports.The prevalence of CVD was as follows: ischaemic heart disease, 5.2%; heart failure, 0.7%, myocardial infarction, 0.9%; stroke, 1.9%; atrial fibrillation 2.4%. Hypertension and hyperlipidaemia were present in 22% and 10.7% of patients respectively. Factors associated with a higher prevalence of CVD include being male (p <0.001), older age (p <0.001), lower KCO (p = 0.008) and presence of hyperlipidaemia ...

Predictive factors of mechanical ventilation among critically ill adults with COVID-19
Conclusion: Among ICU admitted patients, comorbidities, neurological symptoms, elevated rate of D-dimer and CRP and important radiological damage are the main risk factors for requiring IMV.

Frequency of delirium and its associated factors among COVID ‐19 inpatients in Iran
ConclusionIn view of the high frequency of delirium among COVID-19 inpatients, their screening for this important mental state should be a priority in clinical settings.

Establishing minimally important differences for cardiac MRI endpoints in pulmonary arterial hypertension
CONCLUSION: This study establishes clinically relevant CMR MIDs for how a patient feels, functions or survives in response to PAH treatment. These findings provide further support for the use of CMR as a clinically relevant clinical outcome measure and will aid trial-size calculations for studies using CMR.PMID:37414419 | DOI:10.1183/13993003.02225-2022
