Butyrylcholinesterase plays an indispensable role in organisms, and its abnormal expression poses a significant threat to human health and safety, covering various aspects including liver-related diseases, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, toxic substances such as organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides markedly inhibit BChE activity. BChE activity serves as a critical parameter for the clinical diagnosis of acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning and the evaluation of organophosphorus and carbamate pesticide residues.

Background: Coronary physiology to guide multi-vessel coronary intervention is associated with better outcome. In the presence of a coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO), hemodynamic evaluation of intermediate lesions in the donor coronary artery supplying a CTO territory still has limitations. We aim to evaluate implementing quantitative flow ratio (QFR) in assessing angiographically intermediate lesions of the main donor coronary artery supplying a CTO territory.

We report the case of a 78-year-old patient with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the right coronary artery, subsequently found to have a large subepicardial mass. The patient underwent a non-invasive multimodal diagnostic work-up including cardiac computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, which led to the diagnosis of subepicardial hematoma following coronary perforation during primary PCI. Due to clinical stability and absence of active bleeding sources, the patient was managed conservatively with gradual absorption of the mass and favorable prognostic outcome.

Background: The introduction of transcatheter procedures has focused on patient expectations for treatments with a less invasive approach and faster recovery. The aim of this study was to assess the short- and medium-term results in patients who underwent trans-axillary mitral valve repair with application of the ultra-fast-track protocol.
Methods: Data from 431 patients undergoing isolated trans-axillary mitral valve repair or associated with tricuspid valve treatment between January 2018 and December 2023 were prospectively collected.

Unlabelled: Right ventricular (RV) diastolic dysfunction in patients with a surgically-repaired RV outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction merits further studies. Right atrial (RA) dilation and function may be related to (RV) diastolic dysfunction in this setting. The end-diastolic forward flow (EDFF) in the pulmonary artery (PA) has been suggested as a non-invasive marker of poor RV compliance, however, there is controversy regarding its true significance; EDFF quantification may help elucidate this controversy.
