Respirophasic carotid artery peak velocity variation as a predictor of fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients with coronary artery disease
Conclusions Doppler assessment of respirophasic Vpeak-CA seems to be a highly feasible and reliable method to predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients undergoing coronary revascularization. Clinical trial registration NCT 01836081.

Influence of unilateral, asymptomatic severe carotid artery stenosis in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
CONCLUSIONS: 1.Asymptomatic, unilateral severe carotid artery stenosis does not increase the risk of stroke, myocardial infarction and mortality within 30 days of coronary artery bypass grafting. 2.The presence of asymptomatic unilateral, severe carotid artery stenosis increases the risk of cardiovascular events during the first 12 months postoperatively.

Ascending-to-Descending Aoritc Bypass: A Simple Solution to a Complex Problem.
CONCLUSIONS: The ascending-to-descending aortic bypass can be performed with low morbidity and mortality. It is an effective solution to complex aortic coarctation and represents a safe single-stage approach for patients with concomitant cardiac pathology.

Rho-Associated Kinase Activity Is a Predictor of Cardiovascular Outcomes Cardiovascular Outcomes
Cardiovascular diseases are associated with chronic activation of Rho-associated kinase. Rho-associated kinase activity is significantly correlated with endothelial function and Framingham risk score. However, there is no information on the prognostic value of Rho-associated kinase activity. We evaluated Rho-associated kinase activity in peripheral leukocytes by Western blot analysis in 633 subjects who underwent health-screening examination at Hiroshima University Hospital. We assessed the associations between Rho-associated kinase activity and first major cardiovascular events (death from cardiovascular causes, myocardia...

Influencing Factors for Early Acute Cerebrovascular Accidents in Patients with Stroke History following Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Conclusions: This study indicated that patients with severe bilateral carotid stenosis, the left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35%, the postoperative acute myocardial infarction, postoperative atrial fibrillation and postoperative hypotension were more likely to suffer from early acute cerebrovascular accidents when they received OPCAB. Application of Enclose® II proximal anastomotic device may decrease the incidence of early acute cerebrovascular accidents during OPCAB.

Management of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation and Subsequent Outcomes in Contemporary Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: Insights From the Society of Thoracic Surgeons CAPS‐Care Atrial Fibrillation Registry
ConclusionsPostoperative AF is common following CABG, and such patients continue to have higher rates of postoperative complications. Postoperative AF is significantly associated with increased length of stay following surgery.

Contemporary Analysis of Incidence and Outcomes of Stent Thrombosis Presenting as ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Cohort
There are limited data about the effectiveness of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for stent thrombosis treatment. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and outcomes of PPCI in patients with ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to stent thrombosis, and comparing the outcomes with patients treated for de novo coronary thrombosis. This was an observational cohort study of 2,935 patients who underwent PPCI from 2003 to 2011 with follow-up for a median of 3.0 years (interquartile range 1.2 to 4.6). The primary end point was the first major adverse cardiac event (MACE) defined as death, nonfatal ...

Social connectedness and predictors of successful ageing
Conclusions: A healthy lifestyle and maintenance of healthy weight, but not social connectedness, may improve the chances of ageing successfully by our definition. Social connectedness may be related to a perception of ageing well, but it does not appear to help avoid the usual conditions associated with ageing.

Abstract 251: Risk Factors for Recurrence of Cardiovascular Events Following Acute Coronary Syndrome: Longitudinal Analysis from 2006-2011 Poster Session III
Conclusion: Following an ACS event, patients with pre-admission statin use or a prior CABG had decreased risk, while older patients or those with baseline comorbidities had increased risk of an adverse CV event occurring sooner. Ultimately, identifying high-risk ACS subgroups may facilitate tailored and more aggressive treatment to improve outcomes.

Renal physiology and kidney stones
Conclusions: The occurrence of a kidney stone is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events including AMI, death due to CHD,PTCA/CABG and stroke. These data suggest that people with a clinically recognized kidney stone should be followed more closely to evaluate for the possibility of subsequent cardiovascular events -- younger people and women.
