Background: Acute aortic dissection is a lethal cardiovascular emergency; early diagnosis is critically necessary. Novel serum biomarkers can potentially help in early detection and estimation of postoperative outcomes. Yes-associated protein (YAP) is a critical effector of the Hippo pathway, our aim was to explore the association between YAP and the diagnosis and prognosis of AD.

Patients with pregnancy-related aortic dissections should be transferred to high-volume aortic centers for management. Malperfusion syndromes from acute type A aortic dissections appear to have better outcomes with thoracic endovascular repair before definitive surgical repair.

A female patient in middle childhood was diagnosed with coarctation of the aorta at one month of age and underwent a successful cortectomy. At 11 years old, she developed re-coarctation, which was managed through interventional cardiology. Shortly after the procedure, she experienced a sudden and severe clinical decline, presenting with hypoperfusion of the lower extremities, gastrointestinal bleeding, acute kidney injury, and pancreatitis.

Early clinical outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation using the NAVITOR system.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using the NAVITOR system has been relatively underreported due to its recent introduction in Japan. This study aimed to assess the short-term outcomes of TAVI with the NAVITOR in real-world clinical practice. Patients with severe aortic stenosis who underwent TAVI using the NAVITOR system at our institution between December 2022 and December 2023 were prospectively enrolled.

Randomized Trial of Early versus Standard Renal Replacement Therapy in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury After Type A Aortic Dissection.

Background: We seek to study whether early initiation of renal replacement therapy (RRT) could reduce 90-day mortality and improve clinical outcomes in patients with acute kidney injury following acute type A aortic dissection.

Methods: This is a single-center, randomized, controlled trial that enrolled acute type A aortic dissection patients with severe post-operative acute kidney injury (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage 2) and with plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin level > 150 ng/mL who did not have potentially life-threatening complications directly related to renal failure. Patients were randomized equally into two groups: the early RRT group received RRT within 6 hours of diagnosis of KDIGO stage 2; the standard treatment group was managed with RRT initiated within 8 hours of stage 3.
