Cardiovascular risk prediction in chronic kidney disease patients.
CONCLUSION: The cardiovascular risk scores (FRS-CVD and ASCVD [AHA/ACC 2013]) can estimate the probability of atherosclerotic cardiovascular events in patients with CKD regardless of renal function, albuminuria and previous cardiovascular events. PMID: 28495396 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Reoperation for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery: Outcomes and Considerations for Expanding Interventional Procedures
Conclusions Redo CABG can be performed safely with low early and late morbidity and mortality. Important predictors of long-term mortality such as age, diabetes, renal disease, and peripheral vascular disease were identified and should guide the treatment strategy chosen for this challenging group of patients.

Free Tissue Transfers for Head and Neck Reconstruction in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease on Dialysis: Analysis of Outcomes Using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database
Conclusion Despite greater preoperative risk factors, patients with renal failure on hemodialysis do not appear to have a higher rate of free flap failure following head and neck reconstruction. However, other complications can be minimized by optimizing patient's medical condition to succeed with this reconstructive effort.

Blood Pressure and Risk of Cardiovascular Events in Patients on Chronic HemodialysisNovelty and Significance Dialysis and Blood Pressure
In conclusion, among hemodialysis patients, although there is a U-shaped (paradoxical) association of dialysis-unit-SBP and risk of cardiovascular disease, there is a linear association of out-of-dialysis-unit-SBP with risk of cardiovascular disease. Out-of-dialysis-unit blood pressure provides key information and may be an important therapeutic target.

Preoperative Cardiac Evaluation in Kidney Transplant Patients: Is Coronary Angiography Superior? A Focused Review.
Authors: Katta N, Balla S, Velagapudi P, Mittal M, Agrawal H, Kumar A, Aggarwal K Abstract Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. Because of a higher occurrence of asymptomatic coronary artery disease and increased perioperative cardiovascular mortality in kidney transplant patients, screening for coronary artery disease before transplant surgery is essential. Various studies have shown that cardiac stress testing is an unreliable screening method in these patients because of significant variability in sensitivity and negative predictive value. We su...

Transubclavian approach: A competitive access for transcatheter aortic valve implantation as compared to transfemoral
ConclusionsOur study suggests that TSc approach may be, not only an alternative route to TF approach for TAVI, but even a competitive one in certain patients with increased risk of femoral injury.

Evaluation of health utility values for diabetic complications, treatment regimens, glycemic control and other subjective symptoms in diabetic patients using the EQ-5D-5L
ConclusionsThe utility decrement related to each diabetic complication varied with its severity and accompanying symptoms. Complex treatment regimens were independently associated with lower utility values. The utility decrement associated with diabetic complication and complex treatment regimens would be overestimated in the analysis without adjustment for glycemic control or other subjective symptoms.

Does Mitral Valve Calcium In Patients Undergoing Mitral Valve Replacement Portend Worse Survival?
ConclusionsConservative 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.

Chronic disease burdens of incident U.S.  dialysis patients, 1996 - 2015
.
DISCUSSION: Mortality and cardiovascular disease burden have declined for dialysis patients in the United States despite an aging population that is increasingly hypertensive and diabetic. Comorbid disease burdens among HD and PD patients have diverged over time, with PD patients having fewer comorbid conditions.

Characteristics of patients at initiation of renal replacement therapy - experience of a hemodialysis center.
In conclusion, careful monitoring of patients in the early stages of CKD would result in lower morbidity and mortality. These objectives can be achieved by implementing screening programs and early interventions. PMID: 32509001 [PubMed]

Biosynthesis and characterization of a novel fibrinolytic alkaline serine protease from newly isolated Bacillus flexusBF12 for biomedical applications.
CONCLUSION: The Bacillus flexus BF12 fibrinolytic enzyme shows promising potentials in nutraceutical and food fortification applications. The application of fibrinolytic enzymes could prevent CVDs. PMID: 33208066 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
