Inflammatory markers link triglyceride-glucose index and obesity indicators with adverse cardiovascular events in patients with hypertension: insights from three cohorts.
Cardiovasc Diabetol

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.
Enhanced Endothelialization Using Resveratrol-Loaded Polylactic Acid-Coated Left Atrial Appendage Occluders in a Canine Model.

Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is a well-established alternative to anticoagulation therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation who have a high bleeding risk. After occluder implantation, anticoagulation therapy is still required for at least 45 days until complete LAAO is achieved by neoendocardial coverage of the device. We applied a polylactic acid-resveratrol coating to the LAAO membrane to enhance endothelialization with the goal of shortening the anticoagulation therapy duration.

BMJ Open
January 2025
Department of Cardiac Surgery, Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris, Creteil, France.
Background: Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) is a condition affecting the left ventricle (LV) rather than the mitral valve (MV). If the MV remains structurally unchanged, enlargement of the LV or impairment of the papillary muscles can occur. Several mechanical interventions are available to dictate the resolution of MR.

Haemolysis after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been reported in some studies, all of which were non-critical. Data related to haemolysis associated with new-generation balloon-expandable valve (BEV) are scarce.

Modification of polylactic acid (PLA) is a promising strategy for the next generation of bioresorbable vascular stent biomaterials. With this focus, FeMOFs nanoparticles was incorporated in PLA, and then post loading of carbon monoxide (CO) was performed by pressurization. It showed FeMOFs incorporation increased hydrophilicity of the surface and CO loading, and CO release was sustained at least for 3 days.
