Asian Pacific Society of Cardiology Position Statement on the Use of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in the Management of Aortic Stenosis.
JACC Asia
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, National Heart Centre Singapore, Singapore.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been established as an effective treatment modality in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and the uptake of TAVI is rapidly growing in the Asia-Pacific region. However, there exist a heterogeneity in the management of aortic stenosis and the use of TAVI among countries in the region. Reasons for these differences include anatomic variations, disparity in healthcare resources and infrastructure, and the lack of consensus on the optimal management of AS in the Asia-Pacific region.

JACC Asia
December 2024
Division of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at Linkou, and Chang Gung University College of Medicine, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Background: Few studies have incorporated echocardiography and laboratory data to predict clinical outcomes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Objectives: This study aimed to use machine learning to find predictors of heart failure (HF) hospitalization and cardiovascular (CV) death in HFpEF.
Methods: From the Chang Gung Research Database in Taiwan, 6,092 HFpEF patients (2,898 derivation, 3,194 validation) identified between 2008 and 2017 were followed until 2019.
EVALUATION OF IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS IN SUBTYPES OF PECTUS EXCAVATUM AND CARINATUM.
Acta Ortop Bras
January 2025
Hospital de Base do Distrito Federal, Departamento de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, Brasilia, DF, Brazil.
Objective: Evaluation of epidemiological data on Idiopathic Scoliosis in patients with different pectus subtypes.
Methods: A medical record analysis of 418 patients with pectus, associated with idiopathic scoliosis above 10°, with research on: subtypes of pectus (Lateral Pectus Carinatum, Inferior Pectus Carinatum, Superior Pectus Carinatum, Broad Pectus Excavatum, and Localized Pectus Excavatum), and characteristics of the scoliotic curve (Cobb angle, laterality, and location).
Results: The mean age was 14.
Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR): A Strong Predictor of Disease Severity in Large-Artery Atherosclerosis (LAA) Stroke Patients.
J Inflamm Res
January 2025
Department of Thoracic Surgery, The First People's Hospital of Shuangliu District (West China Airport Hospital of Sichuan University), Chendu, Sichuan Province, 610200, People's Republic of China.
Background: Systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are novel inflammatory markers based on neutrophil, platelet and lymphocyte counts. Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease. This study aimed to verify the predictive value of the clinical parameters such as systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for the severity in Large Artery Atherosclerosis (LAA) stroke patients.

Heliyon
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, CHU Mont-Godinne UCL Namur, Yvoir, Belgium.
Post-capillary hypertension resulting from mitral regurgitation is typically considered a contraindication for single lung transplantation due to heightened risks of primary graft dysfunction. This case report highlights a 66-year-old COPD patient with severe mitral regurgitation who was deemed ineligible for surgical mitral replacement. As an alternative, transcatheter mitral valve replacement was successfully performed, resulting in the normalization of pulmonary artery pressures.
