Objective: To investigate the value of systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) combined with CHA2DS2-VASC score in predicting the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment.
Methods: 1531 consecutive patients with ACS and undergoing PCI were recruited from January 2019 to December 2021. All patients were divided into CI-AKI and non-CI-AKI groups according to the pre-procedure and post-procedure creatinine changes, and the baseline data were compared between the two groups. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the factors influencing CI-AKI in ACS patients after PCI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to evaluate the predictive value of SII, CHA2DS2-VASC, and their combined levels on CI-AKI after PCI.
Results: Patients with high SII and high CHA2DS2-VASC score had a higher incidence of CI-AKI. For SII, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting CI-AKI was 0.686. The optimal cut-off value was 736.08 with a sensitivity of 66.8% and a specificity of 66.3% [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.662-0.709; P < 0.001]. For CHA2DS2-VASC score, the AUC was 0.795, the optimal cut-off value was 2.50 with a sensitivity of 80.3% and a specificity of 62.7% (95% CI 0.774-0.815; P < 0.001). When combining SII and CHA2DS2-VASC score, the AUC was 0.830, the optimal cut-off value was 0.148 with a diagnostic sensitivity of 76.1% and a specificity of 75.2% (95% CI 0.810-0.849; P < 0.001). The results showed that SII combined with CHA2DS2-VASC score resulted in improved predictive accuracy of CI-AKI. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that albumin level (OR = 0.967, 95% CI 0.936-1.000; P = 0.047), lnSII level (OR = 1.596, 95% CI 1.010-1.905; P < 0.001), and CHA2DS2-VASC score level (OR = 1.425, 95% CI 1.318-1.541; P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for CI-AKI in patients with ACS treated with PCI.
Conclusion: High SII and high CHA2DS2-VASC score are risk factors for the development of CI-AKI, and the combination of the two improves the accuracy of predicting the occurrence of CI-AKI in patients with ACS undergoing PCI.

Background: Globally, the number of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) is increasing. In our study, we aimed to investigate whether CHADS-VASc and RCHADS-VASc scores are predictive of CIED-related complications.
Methods: Our investigation was carried out with a multicenter retrospective design.

Background: Up to 50% of patients undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (MTEER) have an indication for left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). However, prospective evaluation of this strategy is lacking.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to prospectively evaluate the outcomes of combined LAAO and MTEER.

Atrial fibrillation (AF), impacting nearly 50 million individuals globally, is a major contributor to ischaemic strokes, predominantly originating from the left atrial appendage (LAA). Current clinical scores like CHA₂DS₂-VASc, while useful, provide limited insight into the pro-thrombotic mechanisms of Virchow's triad-blood stasis, endothelial damage, and hypercoagulability. This study leverages biophysical computational modelling to deepen our understanding of thrombogenesis in AF patients.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke, particularly in geriatric populations. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have demonstrated cardiovascular benefits, but their effects on stroke risk may vary by age. This study aimed to explore the age-dependent effects of SGLT2i on stroke risk in patients with AF and DM.

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia, poses challenges in predicting thromboembolic risk. While the CHADS-VASc (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥ 75 years (doubled), type 2 diabetes mellitus, previous stroke, transient ischemic attack, or thromboembolism (doubled), vascular disease, age 65-74 years, and sex category) score remains essential, its limitations include failure to identify left atrial (LA) thrombus in some patients. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides superior detection of LA thrombi and thrombogenic factors compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), improving risk stratification, especially in intermediate-risk groups.
