The guide extension-facilitated ostial stenting (GEST) technique uses a guide extension catheter (GEC) to improve stent delivery during primary coronary angioplasty (PCI). GECs are used for stent delivery into the coronary arteries of patients with difficult anatomy due to tortuosity, calcification, or chronic total occlusion (CTO) vessels. Stent and balloon placement has become challenging in patients with increasing lesion complexity due to tortuosity, vessel morphology, length of the lesion, and respiratory movements.

Objective: To assess the extent to which the concomitant presence of subclinical myocardial injury or stress and diabetes affects the risk of heart failure (HF) subtypes.

Research Design And Methods: The Jackson Heart Study included Black adults, categorized based on diabetes status, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels. Subclinical myocardial injury was defined as hs-cTnI ≥4 ng/L in women and ≥6 ng/L in men, and subclinical myocardial stress as BNP ≥35 pg/mL.

Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has allowed patients with refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to receive primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); they were previously ineligible.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to clarify the characteristics and outcomes of patients with OHCA secondary to AMI who underwent primary PCI during refractory cardiac arrest despite ECPR.

Methods: Patients with AMI and OHCA aged ≥18 years who underwent PCI with ECPR in 2013 to 2018 were identified from a multicenter ECPR registry in Japan.

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.

Background: Epinephrine is currently the only recommended cardio-resuscitative medication for use in neonatal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), as per consensus of science and treatment recommendations. An alternative medication, vasopressin, may be beneficial, however there is limited data regarding its effect on cardiac and brain tissue following recovery from neonatal CPR.

Aim: To compare the effects of vasopressin and epinephrine during resuscitation of asphyxiated post-transitional piglets on cardiac and brain tissue injury.
