In-hospital stroke and mortality trends after left ventricular assist device implantation in the United States from 2017 to 2019
CONCLUSIONS: Our study found a significant downtrend in the in-hospital mortality rates among patients with LVAD without substantial changes in stroke rate trends over the study timeframe. As stroke rates remained steady, we hypothesize that improved management along with better control of blood pressure, could have played an important role in survival benefit over the study time frame.PMID:37387231 | DOI:10.1177/03913988231183723

Pulmonary artery compliance in different forms of pulmonary hypertension
Conclusion PAC was similar between PH groups and was not an independent predictor of transplant-free survival in PAH. RC time was different between PH subgroups, challenging RC time constancy. Trial registration number NCT04071327

Improved mortality and haemodynamics with milrinone in cardiogenic shock due to acute decompensated heart failure
ConclusionsThe use of milrinone compared with dobutamine in patients with ADHF-CS is associated with lower 30  day mortality and improved haemodynamics. These findings warrant further study in future randomized controlled trials.

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 5618: Automated Signal Quality Assessment of Single-Lead ECG Recordings for Early Detection of Silent Atrial Fibrillation
s D. Zink Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an arrhythmic cardiac disorder with a high and increasing prevalence in aging societies, which is associated with a risk for stroke and heart failure. However, early detection of onset AF can become cumbersome since it often manifests in an asymptomatic and paroxysmal nature, also known as silent AF. Large-scale screenings can help identifying silent AF and allow for early treatment to prevent more severe implications. In this work, we present a machine learning-based algorithm for assessing signal quality of hand-held diagnostic ECG devices to prevent misclassification due to insu...

Can ‘toxic’ bilirubin treat a variety of illnesses?
Generations of medical and biology students have been instilled with a dim view of bilirubin. Spawned when the body trashes old red blood cells, the molecule is harmful refuse and a sign of illness. High blood levels cause jaundice, which turns the eyes and skin yellow and can signal liver trouble. Newborns can’t process the compound, and although high levels normally subside, a persistent surplus can cause brain damage. Yet later this year up to 40 healthy Australian volunteers may begin receiving infusions of the supposedly good-for-nothing molecule. They will be participating in a phase 1 safety trial, sponsored ...

Outcomes of heart transplant recipients with prior left ventricular assist device associated stroke
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) improve survival in patients with end-stage heart failure but are associated with ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). The impact of LVAD-associated stroke on transplant candidacy and outcomes has not been characterized.

Left Atrial Strain Derived From Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Can Predict Outcomes of Patients With Acute Myocarditis
CONCLUSION: LA reservoir and conduit strains derived from CMR are independent predictors of adverse clinical outcomes in patients with acute myocarditis.PMID:37271205 | DOI:10.3348/kjr.2022.0898
