Background: Branch pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis must be addressed early to prevent right ventricular scarring and establish lung blood flow. Balloon-mounted stents are more useful in managing right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction and PA stenosis.

Materials And Methods: We studied the clinical and angiographic data of children with congenital heart disease who underwent stenting for RVOT obstruction and branch PA stenosis using the Formula stent (Cook Medical, Limerick, Ireland) between 2018 and 2024 in a tertiary pediatric cardiac center in southern India.

Midterm Outcomes of Endovascular Pulmonary Artery Debanding in Children.

Catheter Cardiovasc Interv

January 2025

Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Hotel Dieu de France University Medical Center, Saint Joseph University, Beirut, Lebanon.

Background: Pulmonary artery banding (PAB) palliates pulmonary over-circulation, while endovascular debanding (ED) offers a less invasive alternative to repeat surgery.

Objectives: To evaluate our experience with ED.

Aims: Retrospective review of single-center data (2015-2023) on children with single, multiple, or "Swiss-cheese" muscular ventricular septal defects (MVSDs) undergoing ED.

Using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to investigate the occurrence and related causes of iatrogenic atrial septal defect (iASD) after catheter ablation combined with left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) for atrial fibrillation (AF) and its impact on the right heart system. We retrospectively analyzed 330 patients that underwent combined procedure of catheter ablation for AF and LAAC at General Hospital of Northern Theater Command from January 2018 to March 2022. These patients were divided into iASD group and non-iASD group according to whether there was persistent iASD shown on TEE at 3 months after procedure.

Butyrate increases cardiac output and causes vasorelaxation in a healthy porcine model.

Life Sci

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 69, 8200 Aarhus N, Denmark; Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University Hospital, Palle Juul-Jensens Boulevard 11, 8200 Aaarhus N, Denmark.

Background: Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, has shown potential to improve left ventricular (LV) function and induce vasorelaxation in rodents. Butyrate may either be produced by the microbiome in the colon, be ingested or administered intravenously. This study aimed to evaluate effects of butyrate on cardiac output (CO) and associated hemodynamic variables in a porcine model.
