Background And Objectives: The current standard of treatment for malignant peritoneal mesothelioma(MPM)is cytoreductive surgery(CRS)plus perioperative intraperitoneal or systemic chemotherapy(comprehensive treatment), The present study was performed to clarify the prognostic factors of PMP after comprehensive treatment.
Methods: Among 63 patients with MPM, male and female patients were 34 and 29. CRSwas performed in 47 patients and complete cytoreduction(CC-0) was performed in 14(22%)patients. Mean numbers of resected peritoneal sectors and organs were 5.2(1-13), and 2.9(0- 9), respectively. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion(HIPEC)was performed in 27 patients. Grade 1/2, Grade 3, and Grade 4 complications were experienced in 5, 6, and 3 patients, respectively. One patient died of sepsis, and the mortality rate was 2.3%. Independent prognostic factors for favorable prognosis were performance of HIPEC, peritoneal cancer index (PCI)score C12, no distant metastasis and histologic epithelial type. Relative risk of no HIPEC, PCI score B13, presence of distant metastasis and non epithelial type were 7.69, 22.1, 3.6 and 3.9, respectively.
Conclusions: Risk factors for death after comprehensive treatment were no HIPEC, PCI score B13, and non epithelial type. However, only 11(17%)patients showed PCI score C12. Accordingly, PCI score should be reducedC12 before CRSby neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

: Cangrelor provides rapid platelet inhibition, making it a potential option for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) survivors undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, clinical data on its use after OHCA are limited. This study investigates in-hospital outcomes of cangrelor use in this population.

Background: The Society of Cardiovascular Angiography and Intervention (SCAI) has defined 5 stages of cardiogenic shock (CS). In patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who initially present in stable hemodynamic condition (SCAI CS stage: A or B), CS stages could deteriorate despite therapeutic management. However, deterioration of SCAI CS stages after AMI remains to be fully characterized.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the distribution of coronary collaterals (CC) as per the Rentrop Collateral Score (RCS) among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and its impact on in-hospital and 30-day mortality after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: In this study, a selected sample of consecutive STEMI patients was assessed for the development of CC as per the RCS classification. An RCS grade of 2 or 3 was taken as the presence of CC with either partial or complete filling of the infarct-related artery (IRA).

Background: Inflammation was associated with the increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). As a novel inflammatory indicator, albumin/neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio score (ANS) has been demonstrated to associate with coronary artery disease. However, the relationship between ANS and new onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) underwent PCI was not determined.

Background: The therapeutic management of patients with multivessel disease and severe left ventricular dysfunction is complex and controversial.
Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical outcomes and the changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction and at least one chronic total occlusion (CTO) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with hemodynamic support provided by Impella.
Methods: Retrospective, multicenter study enrolling patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction and severe coronary artery disease with at least one CTO who required percutaneous mechanical circulatory support with Impella, from January 2019 to December 2023.
