Left ventricular assist device implantation combined with hemiarch replacement for severe aortic atherosclerosis
J Thorac Dis. 2023 Jul 31;15(7):3979-3983. doi: 10.21037/jtd-23-255. Epub 2023 Jul 6.ABSTRACTImplantation of the left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has emerged as a widely employed therapeutic approach for specifically chosen individuals suffering from severe heart failure. Stroke is a well-known complication of LVAD implantation. Concomitant aortic surgeries in patients requiring LVAD implantation to avoid outflow graft anastomosis to a severe atherosclerotic aorta are unknown. We illustrate a successful LVAD implantation with hemiarch replacement for severe aortic atherosclerosis to decrease the risk of postoperative ...

Atherosclerosis on CT coronary angiography and risk of long-term cardiovascular events post liver transplantation
CONCLUSION: The standardized CAD-RADS classification on CTCA predicted the occurrence of cardiovascular outcomes following LT, with a potential to increase utilization of preventive cardiovascular therapies.PMID:37432891 | DOI:10.1097/LVT.0000000000000215

Outcomes of Combined Heart-Kidney Transplantation in Older Recipients
CONCLUSION: Combined HKT is increasing in older recipients, and advanced age ≥65 should not preclude HKT.PMID:37396466 | PMC:PMC10314816 | DOI:10.1155/2023/4528828

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.

Adrenomedullin peptides and precursor levels in relation to haemodynamics and prognosis after heart transplantation
ConclusionsElevated plasma levels of ADM may be a marker of pressure/volume overload in HF patients with PH, as well as long-term prognosis after HT. In line with previous studies, our findings additionally confirm that ADM may be a marker of venous congestion in HF. Further studies are encouraged to establish a deeper understanding of the properties of ADM and its relationship with HF and PH, in order to potentially facilitate clinical management of HF and associated PH.

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: From mechanisms to therapy
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 May 2;163:114817. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114817. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) remain an intractable problem and have high morbidity and mortality worldwide, as well as substantial health and economic burdens, representing an urgent clinical need. In recent years, the focus of research has shifted from the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for transplantation to the use of their secretory exosomes (MSC-exosomes) for the treatment of numerous CVDs, including atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure (HF), ischemia/reperfusio...

Po-04-151 a new sequential artificial intelligence algorithm for predicting atrial fibrillation using serial 12-lead electrocardiograms
Because the early stage of atrial fibrillation (AF) is difficult to detect, a significant number of patients are exposed to the risk of stroke without forewarning. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms using 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) are being developed to detect AF early.

Dh-452784-2 identifying atrial fibrillation with sinus rhythm electrocardiogram using artificial intelligence in embolic stroke with undetermined source
Previous studies have demonstrated acceptable ranges of accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for identifying patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) based on their sinus rhythm electrocardiograms (ECGs). However, none of them has been validated in patients with embolic stroke with undetermined source (ESUS) in which thorough AF screening is required.

Artificial Intelligence for the Detection and Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
AF, the most common clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmia, is expected to affect>5 million Americans by 2050.1 The diagnosis is frequently associated with other cardiovascular comorbidities, including hypertension, obesity and sleep apnoea, and AF is an important risk factor for stroke, heart failure and overall mortality.2 –4 Although treatment is available, many people remain untreated becau...
