A 38-year-old man who was resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation was diagnosed with acute aortic dissection complicated by coronary malperfusion. He underwent total aortic arch replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting to the left anterior descending coronary artery. Due to low cardiac output syndrome from cardiac ischemia, central extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) was established with aortic cannulation from the side branch of the implanted prosthetic graft and venous drainage from the femoral vein. Ventricular venting was added from the right upper pulmonary vein for the distended left ventricle. ECMO was weaned off on postoperative Day 4. The patient is back on his normal daily life for more than 1 year after the surgery.

Background: Understanding the development of central venous catheter-related thrombus (CVCRT) is vital for the prevention of adverse events caused by thrombi after cardiac surgery in children. However, the risks associated with CVCRT remain controversial. This study analyzed the risk factors of CVCRT based on a detailed evaluation of its morphometric features and severity.

Background: Patients supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are at a high risk of brain injury, contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to employ machine learning (ML) techniques to predict brain injury in pediatric patients ECMO and identify key variables for future research.
Methods: Data from pediatric patients undergoing ECMO were collected from the Chinese Society of Extracorporeal Life Support (CSECLS) registry database and local hospitals.

The prognostic value of differentially expressed senescence-related genes(DESRGs) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) patients is unclear. We used GEO2R to identify DESRGs from GSE60993 and performed functional enrichment analysis. We built an optimal prognostic model with LASSO penalized Cox regression via GSE49925.
