A comparative study of thoracoscopic left atrial appendage clipping versus stapled resection
CONCLUSIONS: The clipping group demonstrated a higher rate of complete LAA closure compared to the stapled resection group. Close monitoring of patients with residual LAA stumps is essential. Further research with larger cohorts is needed to elucidate impact of residual LAA stump on thromboembolic events.PMID:37734642 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2023.09.010

Direct oral anticoagulants versus vitamin K antagonists: Which one is more effective in atrial fibrillation
CONCLUSIONS: Our meta-analysis demonstrates that in patients undergoing bioprosthetic valve surgery and presenting with AF afterward, DOAC and VKA are similar regarding life-threatening and all-cause mortality outcomes, including major bleeding, stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage.PMID:37697799 | DOI:10.1177/02676591231202383

Periprocedural continuation versus interruption of oral anticoagulant drugs during transcatheter aortic valve implantation: rationale and design of the POPular PAUSE TAVI trial
EuroIntervention. 2023 Aug 22:EIJ-D-23-00206. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00206. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAbout one-third of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) use oral anticoagulants (OAC), mainly due to atrial fibrillation. General guidelines advise interrupting OAC in patients with a high risk of bleeding undergoing interventions. However, preliminary observational data suggest that the continuation of OAC during TAVI is safe and may reduce the risk of periprocedural thromboembolic events. The Periprocedural Continuation Versus Interruption of Oral Anticoagulant Drugs During Transcatheter ...

Left atrial appendage angiography for stroke risk prediction in patients with atrial fibrillation
Conclusions: Impaired mechanical function of the LAA, indicated by a low LAAEF and CR, is associated with a history of stroke in patients with AF. Assessment of CR using LAA angiography helps improve the stratification scheme for stroke risk prediction.PMID:37594402 | DOI:10.4244/EIJ-D-23-00325

Surgical Myocardial Revascularization with a Composite T-graft from the Left Internal Mammary Artery-Comparison of the Great Saphenous Vein with the Radial Artery
CONCLUSION: CABG with a composite T-graft between LIMA and a segment of SV may be comparable to bypass surgery with a composite T-graft between LIMA and RA. This might be true in terms of morbidity and mortality over an intermediate-term observation period. The results of our studies give rise to the hypothesis that the decision not to perform aortic bypass anastomosis may be more important than the choice of graft material.PMID:37506730 | DOI:10.1055/s-0043-1771358

A comparison between stand-alone left atrial appendage occlusion and resection as a method of preventing cardiogenic thromboembolic stroke
ConclusionThere were no significant differences between LAAO and LAAR in terms of the feasibility and the effectiveness as a method for stroke prophylaxis only to selected patients for both procedures, although further studies including the comparison between groups with the same backgrounds to confirm the authentic differences in the clinical results between these procedures.
