A term, healthy infant presented with respiratory distress and severe pulmonary hypertension (PH). With an unclear aetiology and the intent to decrease right ventricular afterload, pulmonary vasodilators were initiated. Follow-up imaging revealed a supravalvular mitral ring as the cause of the PH which resolved after surgical resection of the membrane.

Background: Sodium glucose transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) is the latest guideline-directed medical therapy for patients with heart failure, as it has demonstrated favorable cardiovascular outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients with or without diabetes. Furthermore, SGLT2i has effectively improved cognitive function in older adults with diabetes and HF. However, the effects of SGLT2i on cognitive function and brain mitochondrial function in rats with ischemic HF have never been investigated.

Early Left Ventricular Unloading after Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: One-Year Outcomes of the EARLY-UNLOAD Randomized Clinical Trial.

Division of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine, Chonnam National University Hospital, Chonnam National University Medical School, Gwangju, South Korea.

Background: The long-term effects of early left ventricular unloading after venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) remain unclear.

Methods: The EARLY-UNLOAD trial was a single-center, investigator-initiated, open-label, randomized clinical trial involving 116 patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) undergoing VA-ECMO. The patients were randomly assigned to undergo either early routine left ventricular unloading by transseptal left atrial cannulation within 12 hours after randomization or the conventional approach, which permitted rescue transseptal cannulation in case of an increased left ventricular afterload.

We present a case of severe hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) in a 21-month old female undergoing cardiac surgery for a ventricular septal defect and subaortic membrane excision. During the operation, a milky white supernatant was observed in the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit, prompting immediate lipid profile testing that revealed elevated triglycerides. The management involved maintaining anticoagulation with heparin dose-response testing and ensuring oxygenator function by measuring blood gas analysis, lactate, and arterial line pressure.

Recombinant dsAAV9-mediated Endogenous Overexpression of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor Alleviates Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury via Activating AMPK and ERK1/2 Signaling Pathways.

State Key Laboratory of Pathogenesis, Prevention and Treatment of High Incidence Diseases in Central Asia, First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, Clinical Medical Research Institute, Xinjiang Medical University, No. 137 Liyushan South Road, Urumqi, 830054, China.

Purpose: To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of enhanced expression of endogenous macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) on cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.

Methods: A recombinant double-stranded adeno-associated virus serotype 9 with MIF or green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes (dsAAV9-MIF/GFP) was transduced into mice and neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs). The models of cardiac 60 min ischemia and 24 h reperfusion and 12 h hypoxia/12 h reoxygenation (H/R) were established in mice and NRVMs, respectively.
