Background: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement leads to a reduction in portal pressure and an improvement in survival in patients with recurrent and refractory ascites and variceal haemorrhage. Prediction of post-TIPS survival is primarily determined by factors identified before the TIPS procedure, as data collected during or after TIPS implantation are limited. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of early hemodynamic changes after TIPS placement on survival, in order to refine post TIPS management.

Background: Patients with complex valvular heart disease (VHD) should be evaluated by a multidisciplinary heart team (HT). In low- and middle-income countries, referral practices are more variable, permitting any physician to refer patients directly to a cardiac surgeon without prior formal evaluation by a cardiologist with expertise in VHD.
Objectives: The goal of the study was to examine the demographics of VHD patients seen in a large heart valve center in a low- and middle-income country and to assess the impact of the multidisciplinary HT in patients referred for valve surgery.

Background: Whereas the increasing burden of acute myocardial infarction (MI) has been reported in sub-Saharan Africa, little is known about short- and long-term prognosis following acute MI.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess in-hospital, 30-day, and 1-year all-cause mortality and adverse outcomes in patients with MI hospitalized at a cardiac center in Côte d'Ivoire.
Methods: This prospective cohort study used data from the REgistre des syndromes coronariens Aigus de CôTe d'IVoire (REACTIV).
