[Consensus on therapeutic effort limitation, with a palliative care approach].

The National Committee for Palliative Care expressed their commitment to approach the decision of foregoing life sustaining treatment from a palliative care perspective, allowing the implementation of a care program to prevent therapeutic obstinacy, respect the dignity of the patient and their parents, and evaluate a rational, reasonable and adequate use of health and technological resources by focusing on the quality of life of the child, in order to realize their best interest, providing a guide that facilitates the decision-making process in dilemmatic situations in pediatrics.

β3 adrenergic agonist treatment in chronic pulmonary hypertension associated with heart failure (SPHERE-HF): a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.

Aims: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with left heart disease is an increasingly prevalent problem, orphan of targeted therapies, and related to a poor prognosis, particularly when pre- and post-capillary PH combine. The current study aimed to determine whether treatment with the selective β3 adrenoreceptor agonist mirabegron improves outcomes in patients with combined pre- and post-capillary PH (CpcPH).

Methods And Results: The β3 Adrenergic Agonist Treatment in Chronic Pulmonary Hypertension Secondary to Heart Failure (SPHERE-HF) trial is a multicentre, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled clinical trial that enrolled stable patients with CpcPH associated with symptomatic heart failure.

[Radiofrequency treatment for electrical storm: evolution and monitoring].

IntroducciÓn Y Objetivos: La tormenta eléctrica (TE) se caracteriza por episodios repetidos de taquicardia ventricular o fibrilación ventricular relacionados con mal pronóstico a corto y largo plazos. El objetivo fue evaluar la prevalencia, resultados y supervivencia de los pacientes sometidos a tratamiento intervencionista por TE en un centro de referencia.

MÉtodos: Estudio unicéntrico, observacional y retrospectivo.

Safety and efficacy of cryoablation vs. radiofrequency ablation of septal accessory pathways: systematic review of the literature and meta-analyses.

Aims: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of septal accessory pathways (APs) is associated with a significant rate of first procedure failures and complications. Cryoablation is an alternative energy source but there are no studies comparing both ablation techniques. We aimed to systematically review the literature and compare the efficacy and safety of cryoablation vs.

A clinical review of 11 cases of large-sized well-differentiated liposarcomas.

Well-differentiated liposarcomas of the extremities are one of the most frequent types of malignant soft tissue tumors in adults. These tumors are typically locally aggressive and show a tendency to recurrence after surgical excision even though they do not metastasize and very rarely dedifferentiate. Its clinical presentation is generally a progressively growing mass causing aesthetic, functional, or compressive symptoms depending on the tumor's size and localization.
