Primary cardiac malignant lymphoma is extremely rare and almost all patients die within weeks. Monoclonal CD20 antibody (rituximab) was administered to a patient with primary cardiac B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma expressing a CD20 molecule. The results suggest that rituximab may be a safe and effective new therapy for primary cardiac B-cell lymphoma.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Inclisiran for the Treatment of Primary Hypercholesterolemia or Mixed Dyslipidemia in Singapore.
Value Health Reg Issues
January 2025
Novartis Singapore Pte Ltd, Singapore. Electronic address:
Objectives: This analysis evaluated the cost-effectiveness of inclisiran plus standard of care (SoC; comprising statins, ezetimibe, and fenofibrate) in primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia from a Singapore healthcare system perspective. Inclisiran + SoC was separately compared with SoC, alirocumab + SoC, and evolocumab + SoC.
Methods: A lifetime Markov model in the United Kingdom (UK) was adapted to the Singapore setting.
Collaboration between dyspnea clinic and primary care physicians to identify heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in the community: Results from the Maebashi City HF project.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, Maebashi, Japan. Electronic address:
Background: Despite increasing awareness in general practice, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains under-diagnosed in the community due to diagnostic difficulties. Dedicated dyspnea clinics are responsible for diagnosing HFpEF and efficient referral from primary care physicians is the key to enhance its role.
Methods: This retrospective analysis was performed to assess the effectiveness of a one-year collaborative project between our dyspnea clinic and the Maebashi Medical Association.

Preoperative treatment of PHPT aims to 1) manage severe and/or symptomatic hypercalcemia and 2) prevent postoperative hypocalcemia. Severe hypercalcemia, defined as a blood calcium level ≥ 3.5 mmol/L, requires admission to hospital in a conventional or critical care unit, depending on clinical symptoms and comorbidities.

Congenital Heart Center at Mott Children's Hospital, Ann Arbor, MI.
Background: The Pediatric Interagency Registry for Mechanical Circulatory Support (Pedimacs), supported by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons, provides detailed information on pediatric patients supported with ventricular assist devices (VADs).
Methods: From September 19, 2012, to December 31, 2023, there were 1648 devices in 1349 patients (<19 years) from 39 North American Hospitals with 100 patients enrolled in 2023.
Results: Cardiomyopathy was the most common underlying etiology (59%), followed by congenital heart disease (26%) and myocarditis (8%).
Finerenone and new-onset diabetes in heart failure: a prespecified analysis of the FINEARTS-HF trial.

British Heart Foundation Cardiovascular Research Centre, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, UK. Electronic address:
Background: Data on the effect of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist therapy on HbA levels and new-onset diabetes are conflicting. We aimed to examine the effect of oral finerenone, compared with placebo, on incident diabetes in the Finerenone Trial to Investigate Efficacy and Safety Superior to Placebo in Patients with Heart Failure (FINEARTS-HF) trial.
Methods: In this randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 6001 participants with heart failure with New York Heart Association functional class II-IV, left ventricular ejection fraction 40% or higher, evidence of structural heart disease, and elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels were randomly assigned to finerenone or placebo, administered orally.
