Objective: Aim: To determine the possibility of predicting adverse cardiovascular events based on the analysis of clinical and instrumental research methods, as well as sST2 in patients after myocardial infarction.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The study included 64 patients who suffered an acute myocardial infarction and underwent PCI with balloon angioplasty and stenting of the infarct-related vessel in the acute period. The predictors of adverse cardiovascular events were assessed events during 1 year of observation. Indicators of echocardiography and coronary angiography were assessed and concentrations sST2.
Results: Results: A worse prognosis was associated with intermediate ejection fraction (EF) (odds ratio (OR)=3.981, p<0.05), left aneurysm ventricle (LV) (OR=29.5, p<0.05), high concentrations of sST2 (OR=1.017, p<0.05) and scores on the Syntax scale (OR=1.001, p<0.05).
Conclusion: Conclusions: In patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention for myocardial infarction, adverse outcome during the next 2 years is associated with coronary and echocardiographic parameters, as well as biochemical indicators of myocardial stress and fibrosis. HF patients with intermediate EF, LV aneurysm, high sST2 concentrations, and high Syntax scores have the worst prognosis.

Background: To determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a 6-month tailored non-linear progressive physical activity intervention (PAI) for lymphoma patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Methods: Patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma (non-Hodgkin (NHL) or Hodgkin (HL)) were randomized into the PAI or healthy living intervention (HLI) control (2:1). Feasibility was assessed by examining accrual, adherence, and retention rates.

While autonomic dysregulation and repolarization abnormalities are observed in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), their relationship remains unclear. We aimed to measure skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA), a novel method to estimate stellate ganglion nerve activity, and investigate its association with electrocardiogram (ECG) alterations after SAH. We recorded a total of 179 SKNA data from SAH patients at three distinct phases and compared them with 20 data from controls.

Background: Piperine, a secondary metabolite, affects the antihyperlipidemic effect of Ezetimibe (EZ). Hyperlipidemia is one of the independent risk factors for cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis. Antihyperlipidemic drugs are essential for reducing cardiovascular events and patient mortality.

Soluble ST2 (sST2) is released in response to vascular congestion, inflammation, and pro-fibrotic stimuli. In heart failure (HF), elevated levels of sST2 are associated with a higher risk of adverse clinical outcomes. Emerging evidence suggests that carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) may act as a ligand that modulates the inflammatory response.

Purpose: This analysis of the CIRSE Registry for SIR-Spheres Therapy in France, CIRT-FR, reports on real-world outcomes of transarterial radioembolisation (TARE) with Y90 resin microspheres for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) patients in France, focusing on safety, effectiveness and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Results on patients treated based on national reimbursement criteria are discussed here.
Methods: Prospective, multicentre, observational study of HCC and CRLM patients treated between August 2017 and July 2020 with TARE Y90 resin microspheres.
