Clinically significant methemoglobinemia is rare and difficult to diagnose when other causes of cyanosis are likely. We report a patient in whom unstable angina pectoris and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were assumed to be responsible for preoperative cyanosis. The use of cardiopulmonary bypass for aortocoronary grafting enabled the clinical diagnosis of methemoglobinemia to be made.

Unsupervised machine learning model for phenogroup-based stratification in acute type A aortic dissection to identify postoperative acute gastrointestinal injury.
Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Operation, The First Hospital of Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, Gansu, China.
Objective: We aimed to explore the application value of unsupervised machine learning in identifying acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) after extracorporeal circulation for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).
Methods: Patients who underwent extracorporeal circulation for ATAAD at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2016 to January 2021 were included. Unsupervised machine learning algorithm was used to stratify patients into different phenogroups according to the similarity of their clinical features and laboratory test results.
A case report of a rare cardiac anomaly associated with Ellis-van Creveld syndrome: common atrium, partial atrioventricular septal defect, and hypoplastic left ventricle.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Osaka Women's and Children's Hospital, Izumi, Osaka 594-1101, Japan.
Background: A partial atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) with a hypoplastic left ventricle and common atrium is a rare combination of cardiac anomalies that can be associated with Ellis-van Creveld (EVC) syndrome.
Case Summary: A female neonate with EVC syndrome was diagnosed with an unbalanced AVSD and hypoplastic left ventricle. Pulmonary artery banding and ductus ligation were performed at 23 days after birth.
Relationship between intraoperative blood pressure variability and postoperative acute kidney injury in pediatric cardiac surgery.
Pediatr Nephrol
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 37 Guoxue Lane, Wuhou District, Chengdu, 610000, Sichuan, China.
Background: Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a notably common complication in pediatrics, with an incidence rate ranging from 15 to 64%. This rate is significantly higher than that observed in adults. Currently, there is a lack of substantial evidence regarding the association between intraoperative blood pressure variability (BPV) during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and the development of AKI in pediatric patients.

Rev Port Cardiol
January 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, Guangzhou, China. Electronic address:
Introduction And Objectives: This retrospective study aimed to develop a nomogram to predict the risk of postoperative acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in patients with Stanford type A acute aortic dissection.
Methods: The study included patients who underwent surgical repair for Stanford type A acute aortic dissection between January 2020 and December 2023. Demographic data, surgical details, intraoperative information, and postoperative outcomes were collected.
Outcomes of RDAVR with Coronary Revascularization: 3-year Results from the German INCA Registry.
Thorac Cardiovasc Surg
January 2025
Rhön Klinikum Campus Bad Neustadt, Bad Neustadt, Bayern, Germany.
Background: The long-term outcomes of combined rapid-deployment aortic valve replacement (RDAVR) with coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) are not well explored. We report 3-year results from the INCA registry on combined RDAVR with CABG.
Methods: INCA is a prospective, multicenter registry that enrolled 224 patients undergoing RDAVR with CABG at 10 cardiac institutions in Germany.
