Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) poses significant challenges in cardiovascular management due to its high morbidity and mortality rates. Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCS) is a severe complication following ATAAD repair that complicates postoperative recovery. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has emerged as a potential life-saving intervention in this context, yet the specific outcomes related to ECMO in ATAAD patients remain insufficiently studied.

Aging is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Cardiac diastolic dysfunction (CDD), ultimately leading to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), is prevalent among older individuals. Although therapeutics have made great progress, preventive strategies remain unmet medical needs.
