Echocardiogram utilization in hospitalized adults with isolated traumatic brain injury: Propensity-matched analysis of the national inpatient sample 2016-2020.
J Clin Neurosci

Background: Early left ventricular systolic dysfunction is common after moderate-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Echocardiography (Echo) can evaluate cardiac function across various clinical scenarios; however, its utilization in isolated TBI remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we aim to examine Echo utilization in hospitalized adults with isolated TBI.

Pfizer Ltd., Tadworth, United Kingdom.
Background: Risk factors and comorbidities can complicate management of non-valvular atrial fibrillation. We describe and compare real-world safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs; apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran) and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) in subgroups of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation at high risk for gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, utilizing data from a national quasi-exhaustive French database.
Methods: Anticoagulant-naïve adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation with ≥1 gastrointestinal bleeding risk factor, initiating anticoagulant treatment January 2016-December 2019, and covered by the French national health data system were eligible.
Successful extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for heart failure after adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery.
Eur Spine J
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic, MacKay Memorial Hospital, No. 92, Sec. 2, Zhongshan N. Rd, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: Spine surgery, particularly deformity correction, is associated with a high risk of peri-operative or post-operative complications, and these complications can lead to catastrophic consequences. This case report will present the etiology and treatment process of the peri-operative cardiac arrest during scoliosis correction surgery.
Method: In this report, we present a case of cardiac arrest during posterior correction surgery in a 17-year-old female patient with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Clinical characteristics and BGA-optimized pretest probability of pulmonary embolism in the elderly.

January 2025
University Heart Center Lübeck, Department of Cardiology, Angiology and Intensive Care Medicine, University of Lübeck, German Center for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK), partner site Hamburg/Kiel/Lübeck, Ratzeburger Allee 160, 23538, Lübeck, Germany.
Background: Pulmonary arterial embolism (PE) is not well characterized in elderly patients. In addition, unnecessary computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) examinations are often performed within this patient group, especially if the pretest probability is low.
Objective: To identify differences in clinical presentation in patients aged ≥80 years compared to patients <80 years and the effect of a BGA-optimized pretest probability to reduce unnecessary CTPAs according to age category.
Transcatheter management of residual mitral regurgitation after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair: a systematic review.
Cardiovasc Interv Ther
January 2025
Heart Valve Center, IRCCS San Raffaele, Milan, Italy.
Background: Treatment of residual mitral regurgitation (MR) with different percutaneous devices after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has been reported as an alternative option to reclipping or surgery. This review aims at describing the different transcatheter strategies available and their results when managing residual MR after TEER.
Methods: A literature search was undertaken across Pubmed, ScienceDirect, SciELO, DOAJ, and Cochrane library databases, to identify article reporting patients with post-TEER residual MR managed by a transcatheter approach that did not involve only the implantation of new clips.
