A 51-year-old man, suffering from an aortic dissection with the entry tear in the descending thoracic aorta, underwent replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic arch with resection of the entry tear. Although the false lumen of the descending thoracic aorta was thrombosed after surgery, redissection developed in the descending aorta 2 months later. Percutaneous fenestration was performed before stent-grafting because it was judged that there was a significant risk of left renal ischemia. Entry closure with a stent-graft was performed successfully and no renal ischemia developed. The patient is doing well at 1 year after the procedure.

Machine learning-derived multivariable predictors of postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock in high-risk cardiac surgery patients.

Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio.
Objective: To develop a model for preoperatively predicting postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCCS) in patients with poor left ventricular (LV) function undergoing cardiac surgery.
Methods: From the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Database, 11,493 patients with LV ejection fraction ≤35% underwent isolated on-pump surgery from 2018 through 2019, of whom 3428 experienced PCCS. In total, 68 preoperative clinical variables were considered in machine-learning algorithms trained and optimized using scikit-learn software.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a rapid decline in renal function. Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIRI) is one of the main causes of AKI with the underlying mechanism incompletely clarified. The liver X receptors (LXRs), including LXRα and LXRβ, are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily.

Macrophages play a vital role in the inflammation and repair processes of ischemia/reperfusion-induced acute kidney injury (IR-AKI). The mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo1 is significant in these inflammatory processes. However, the exact role of macrophage in IR-AKI is unknown.

Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and ultimately leads to renal fibrosis, primarily via the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) pathway. Leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein 1 (LRG1), a novel modulator of the TGF-β pathway, has been implicated in the modulation of renal fibrosis by affecting the TGF-β/Smad3 signaling axis. However, the role of LRG1 in the transition from AKI to chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear.

A couple of S100 family proteins (S100s) have been reported to exert pro-inflammatory functions in the progression of renal fibrosis (RF). Unlike some S100s which are expressed by both epithelial and stromal inflammatory cells, S100A7 is restricted expressed in epithelium. Persistent S100A7 expression occurs in some invasive carcinomas and is associated with poor prognostic factors.
