Pulmonary embolism (PE) can result in high mortality. Early risk stratification and treatment are critical for individualized management. In patients with intermediate-high-risk (IHR) PE, guidelines recommend to consider a percutaneous catheter-directed treatment (CDT).

We describe a 12-year-old boy with agenesis of the intrahepatic segment of the inferior vena cava (a rare congenital anomaly) in whom an electrified coronary guidewire with electrocautery was used percutaneously to perforate and open the atretic segment, followed by stent implantation. This technique may be a safe and feasible option for paediatric patients, offering a therapeutic alternative for complex cardiac anatomies.

Background And Aims: Cardiotoxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is a challenge in clinical practice, and the assessment of ICI-related myocarditis (ICI-M) is often complicated by a variable phenotype. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is used frequently, but evidence is poor. Here, we aim to assess the role of CMR in the assessment of suspected ICI-M in a real-world clinical setting.

Background: Recent studies have reported growing evidence supporting applying the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. This investigation intended to ascertain the link between CONUT scores and the prognosis in the AMI population.
Methods: Multiple electronic databases, encompassing PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library, were retrieved from the inception of the databases until July 20, 2024, to explore the link between CONUT scores and adverse clinical outcomes in individuals with AMI.

Cardiomyocytes can be implanted to remuscularize the failing heart. Challenges include sufficient cardiomyocyte retention for a sustainable therapeutic impact without intolerable side effects, such as arrhythmia and tumour growth. We investigated the hypothesis that epicardial engineered heart muscle (EHM) allografts from induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and stromal cells structurally and functionally remuscularize the chronically failing heart without limiting side effects in rhesus macaques.
