A case of a 62-year-old female with acute inferior myocardial infarction with right ventricular involvement is presented. The patient developed cardiogenic shock due to interventricular septum rupture. Pharmacological agents and intraaortic balloon counterpulsation restored normal circulation which enabled elective surgical treatment 14 days after the onset of symptoms.

Prediction of Cardiac Remodeling and/or Myocardial Fibrosis Based on Hemodynamic Parameters of Vena Cava in Athletes.
Curr Med Imaging
January 2025
Department of Radiology, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, Luzhou, Sichuan, China.
Purpose: This study aimed to assess the hemodynamic changes in the vena cava and predict the likelihood of Cardiac Remodeling (CR) and Myocardial Fibrosis (MF) in athletes utilizing four-dimensional (4D) parameters.
Materials And Methods: A total of 108 athletes and 29 healthy sedentary controls were prospectively recruited and underwent Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) scanning. The 4D flow parameters, including both general and advanced parameters of four planes for the Superior Vena Cava (SVC) and Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) (sheets 1-4), were measured and compared between the different groups.

Background: With advancements in minimally invasive thoracic surgery techniques, such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and robotic surgery, the design of vascular staplers has evolved to meet the requirements of these procedures. Consequently, newer generations of automatic staplers with improved handling and reduced size have been introduced, such as two-row staplers, which are more maneuverable and less bulky than their three-row counterparts.
Case Presentation: A 68-year-old man with lung cancer underwent a right middle and lower lobectomy due to tumor invasion into the central middle bronchial trunk, rendering the preservation of the middle lobe impossible.
Polymer-free versus biodegradable-polymer drug-eluting stent in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: an assessor-blind, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial.
EuroIntervention
January 2025
Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, University of Naples "Federico II", Naples, Italy.
Background: Few data are available on polymer-free drug-eluting stents in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Aims: We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of a polymer-free amphilimus-eluting stent (AES), using a reservoir-based technology for drug delivery, compared with a biodegradable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (EES).
Methods: This was a randomised, investigator-initiated, assessor-blind, non-inferiority trial conducted at 14 hospitals in Italy (ClinicalTrials.
Speckle Strain Analysis of Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Paediatric Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve-A Pilot Study.
Children (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Neonatology, George Emil Palade Univ Med Pharm Sci&Technol. of Târgu Mureș, 540142 Târgu Mureș, Romania.
Background/objectives: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a prevalent congenital heart defect that continues to present a significant challenge in the management of paediatric patients. The assessment of left ventricle systolic function is typically conducted through the measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction. Currently, left ventricle global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) is regarded as a more sensitive indicator, enabling the quantitative assessment of global and segmental ventricular function through the determination of myocardial deformation.
