Does Mitral Valve Calcium In Patients Undergoing Mitral Valve Replacement Portend Worse Survival?
CONCLUSIONS: Conservative approach to treat MAC achieves satisfactory results. Patients with MAC have significant comorbidities contributing to a worse survival though MAC in itself is not a risk factor for mortality. PMID: 30391339 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

In-Hospital Outcomes of Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.
CONCLUSIONS: CKD is common among patients undergoing CTO-PCI. High success rates can be achieved in patients with decreased glomerular filtration rate, but CKD may be associated with higher in-hospital mortality. PMID: 30218557 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Salvage Coronary Artery Bypass Predicts Increased Mortality during Aortic Root Surgery
ConclusionsCABG during ROOT results in increases in postoperative morbidity or mortality compared with isolated ROOT. Outcomes, however, are influenced by the specific clinical indication. CABG for CAD was associated with similar outcomes compared with isolated ROOT. Patients undergoing unplanned CABG for acute ventricular failure had the worst outcomes, thus underscoring the importance of technical success during coronary reimplantation.

Defining an Intraoperative Hypotension Threshold in Association with Stroke in Cardiac Surgery
Conclusions Hypotension is a potentially modifiable risk factor for perioperative stroke. The study ’s findings suggest that mean arterial pressure may be an important intraoperative therapeutic hemodynamic target to reduce the incidence of stroke in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.

Red blood cell transfusion in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction-a  meta-analysis of more than 21,000 patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Red blood cell transfusion increases the morbidity and mortality in patients with STEMI. This difference could not be explained by the higher morbidity in the red blood cell transfusion group alone. Further randomised controlled trials are required to provide a reliable haemoglobin threshold for these patients. PMID: 30039381 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Differences in management and outcomes for men and women with ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSION: Women with STEMI are less likely to receive invasive management, revascularisation, or preventive medication at discharge. The reasons for these persistent differences in care require investigation. PMID: 30025513 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Patients with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease – Double trouble
Publication date: March 2018Source: Advances in Medical Sciences, Volume 63, Issue 1Author(s): Ewelina Michniewicz, Elżbieta Mlodawska, Paulina Lopatowska, Anna Tomaszuk-Kazberuk, Jolanta MalyszkoAbstractCoronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cardiovascular disease while atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Both diseases share associated risk factors – hypertension, diabetes mellitus, sleep apnea, obesity and smoking. Moreover, inflammation plays a causative role in both diseases. The prevalence of CAD in patients with AF is from 17% to 46.5% while the prevalence of AF among patients...

Plasma Ceramides: A Novel Predictor of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events After Coronary Angiography.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated plasma concentrations of ceramides are independently associated with major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with and without coronary artery disease. PMID: 29903731 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

ICU Readmission after Cardiac Surgery —Still a Matter of Concern?
Conclusions In conclusion, readmission to the ICU after cardiac surgery is a rare complication that is still associated with excessive mortality. Establishment of an intermediate care unit proved to be an excellent means to reduce ICU stay without endangering post-surgery patients and significantly reduced the ICU readmission rate.

Predictors of periprocedural complications in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions within coronary bypass grafts.
CONCLUSIONS: Percutaneous coronary interventions of SVG is associated with increased risk of specific periprocedural complications. The ACS, slower TIMI flow before PCI and thrombectomy significantly increase the periprocedural complication rate in patients undergoing PCI of SVG. PMID: 29671862 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Which aortic clamp strategy is better to reduce postoperative stroke and death: Single center report and a meta-analysis
Background: Stroke is severe complication of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) which may be associated with clamp strategy, there are 2 strategies to clamp aorta including single aortic clamp (SAC) and partial aortic clamp (PAC). It is controversial that which clamping strategy is better to reduce the postoperative stroke and death, so this study aims to investigate which is better for reducing postoperative stroke and death within 30 days. Methods: We collected 469 patients who had on-pump CABG in Fuwai Hospital during January 2014 to July 2015. The SAC group consisted of 265 patients while the PAC group include...

Improving patient adherence to secondary prevention medications 6 months after an acute coronary syndrome: observational cohort study
ConclusionsFailure to discharge patients on indicated therapies is the most important modifiable predictor of adherence failure 6 months after an ACS. Implementing protocols to automate prescription of indicated discharge therapies, has the potential to dramatically reduce non‐adherence in the 6 months following discharge.
