We report a patient who developed anterior ST segment elevation following angioplasty of the right coronary artery in which a right ventricular branch became occluded. Several similar reports were found in the literature as well as a putative mechanism for the electrocardiographic changes. Cathet. Cardiovasc. Intervent. 47:327-330, 1999.

A Case Study of Aberrant Aortic Origin of the Right Coronary Artery.
Discoveries (Craiova)
March 2024
Interventional Cardiologist, Apollo Hospitals Chennai Greams Road, India.
This case report examines a rare cardiovascular abnormality, the Aberrant Aortic Origin of the Right Coronary Artery (AAORCA), in a 75-year-old patient with a history of myocardial infarction, acute renal injury, and cardiogenic shock. Rapid medical intervention, including coronary angioplasty, demonstrated the significance of prompt care. Chronic issues, including tobacco use and left ventricular dysfunction, complicated matters, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive long- term therapy.

Background: Veno-arterial (V-A) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is commonly used for patients with cardiac arrest, cardiogenic shock, or heart failure and is a life-saving technique. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) examination in patients on ECMO presents certain challenges. Due to the dual circulation characteristics of blood flow in ECMO patients, vascular imaging and interpretation can be difficult and may even present pitfalls.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Kanazawa University, Takaramachi 13-1, Kanazawa, 920-8641, Japan.
Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (A-AAD) with severe acute aortic regurgitation (AR) and coronary involvement is a potentially fatal condition that causes left ventricular volume overload and catastrophic acute myocardial infarction. We present the successful management of a patient using Impella 5.5 following cardiopulmonary arrest caused by A-AAD with severe acute AR and left main trunk (LMT) obstruction.

Jiangxi University of Chinese Medicine, Jiangxi, China.
Background: Qi Li Qiang Xin (QLQX) capsule has a solid theoretical basis and clinical efficacy in the treatment of chronic heart failure; however, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. This study was designed to determine the effect of the QLQX on the treatment of heart failure and delineate the underlying mechanisms via a nontargeted metabolomics and lipidomics approach.
Methods: A rat model of heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI) was established via permanent ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery.

Nephrology Department, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital, Yangzhou, China.
Background: There is little research on cardiorenal anemia syndrome (CRAS) in China. This study was to describe the characteristics of patients with CRAS and to explore risk factors of all-cause death.
Methods: A total of 81,795 patients were hospitalized from August 2012 to August 2021 in the nephrology department and cardiology department, of which 820 patients with CRAS were recruited into this study.
