Introduction: Stress hyperglycemia (SH) in STEMI is associated with high risk of in-hospital mortality. It is still controversial if SH is marker of high post-hospital risk.
Objectives: The aim was to analyze in-hospital and one-year risk associated with SH in STEMI and to study if SH is marker of LV remodeling.
Methods: We enrolled 275 patients who were admitted with first STEMI and reperfused. Patients were divided according to admission glycemia in three groups: (1) with diabetes mellitus (DM); (2) with SH, without DM and; (3) without both DM and SH. SH was defined as admission blood glucose level ≥ 8 mmol/l.
Results: In-hospital mortality was higher in patients with known DM (5%) and highest in patients with SH without previous DM (9.3%), and only 1.6% in the third group, P < 0.05. In patients without known DM, SH was associated with 6.378-fold higher in-hospital mortality. Total mortality was double in group with SH without DM compared to the third group (13.9% versus 6.3%). EDV changed in patients with SH without DM from 126 ± 37 to 145 ± 30 ml after one year, P < 0.05.
Conclusion: SH is associated with high in-hospital mortality risk and it could be marker of LV remodeling (significant increase of EDV during one year).

Aortic lumen repair with glue-felt technique before proximal anastomosis in acute type a aortic dissection surgery.
J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Cerrahpasa Medical Faculty, Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, Istanbul, Turkey.
Objectives: Despite the advances in medicine, aortic dissection remains a cardiac surgery emergency with high mortality and morbidity rates. This study examined the effects of the Glue + Felt technique, which uses biological glue and felt to repair the proximal anastomotic site, on the outcomes of patients with acute type A aortic dissection.
Methods: A total of 108 patients who underwent surgery for acute type A aortic dissection at our clinic between 2007 and 2020 were included in the study.

Primary immunodeficiencies (PID), now often referred to as inborn errors of immunity (IEI), are a large heterogeneous group of disorders that result from deficiencies in immune system development and/or function. IEIs can be broadly classified as disorders of adaptive immunity (e.g.

Background: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) enables a non-invasive measurement of tissue oxygen saturation (StO) in regions illuminated by near-infrared lights. Vascular occlusion test (VOT) serves as a model to artificially induce forearm ischemia-reperfusion. The combination of StO monitoring and VOT allows for dynamic evaluation of the balance between oxygen delivery and consumption in tissue, as well as the functional reserve of microcirculation.

Introduction: Purulent bacterial pericarditis is a potentially fatal disease with mortality rates reaching 100% if left untreated.
Case Presentation: We present the case of a 33-year-old Caucasian male patient who developed cardiac tamponade, most likely caused by a pyogenic liver abscess communicating with the pericardium. Treatment with antibiotics, extended sepsis therapy, and drainage of the abscess led to a full recovery.
Inflammatory markers link triglyceride-glucose index and obesity indicators with adverse cardiovascular events in patients with hypertension: insights from three cohorts.

State Key Laboratory of Systems Medicine for Cancer, Center for Single-Cell Omics, School of Public Health, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Background: Among hypertensive cohorts across different nations, the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) and its conjunction with obesity metrics in relation to cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality remains to be elucidated.
Methods: This study enrolled 9,283, 164,357, and 5,334 hypertensives from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), UK Biobank (UKBB), and Shanghai Pudong cohort. The related outcomes for CVD were defined by multivariate Cox proportional hazards models, Generalized Additive Models and Mendelian randomization analysis.
