Background And Objective: Despite the absence of scientific evidence, fasting before percutaneous cardiac catheterization is still recommended to minimize complications. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the outcomes of non-fasting protocols in patients undergoing percutaneous cardiac procedures.
Materials And Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, WOS, Embase, and Cochrane was conducted until September 2024. Dichotomous outcomes were pooled using risk ratio (RR), while continuous outcomes were pooled using standardized mean difference (SMD).
Prospero Id: CRD42024586147.
Results: Five RCTs with 2034 patients were included. There was no significant difference between both groups regarding patient satisfaction score [SMD - 0.65, 95% CI (- 1.39, 0.09), P = 0.08], intra/postoperative aspiration (RR 1.00, 95% CI [0.20, 4.96], P = 1.00), postprocedural pneumonia (RR 0.60, 95% CI [0.14, 2.51], P = 0.49), emergency endotracheal intubation (RR 0.99, 95% CI [0.10, 9.51], P = 1.00), nausea/vomiting (RR 0.89, 95% CI [0.46, 1.76], P = 0.75), anti-emetic use (RR 0.49, 95% CI [0.24, 1.03], P = 0.06), hypoglycemia (RR 0.74, 95% CI [0.43, 1.28], P = 0.28), and the need for inotrope/vasopressor therapy (RR 1.03, 95% CI [0.81, 1.30], P = 0.82). However, the non-fasting approach significantly decreased the sensation of tiredness/fatigue (SMD - 0.31 with 95% CI [- 0.51, - 0.11], P < 0.001).
Conclusion: The non-fasting protocol demonstrated comparable efficacy, safety, and overall satisfaction to the conventional fasting approach. REVIEW REGISTRATION : PROSPERO CRD42024586147.

Importance: Outcomes in patients with diabetes after fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using current-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) compared with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are unknown.
Objectives: To investigate the relative treatment effect of PCI vs CABG according to diabetes status with respect to major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) at 3 years and to evaluate the impact of the SYNTAX score.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This is a prespecified subgroup analysis of the FAME (Fractional Flow Reserve vs Angiography for Multivessel Evaluation) 3 trial, an investigator-initiated, randomized clinical trial conducted at 48 centers worldwide.
Successful Percutaneous Extraction of a WATCHMAN FLX Device From the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract.

Background: Although rare, embolization of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) devices carries a significant morbidity and mortality burden.
Case Summary: An asymptomatic 77-year-old woman with inability to tolerate anticoagulation due to gastrointestinal bleeding presented for 45-day transesophageal echocardiography following LAAO with a Watchman device, which demonstrated incidental device migration to the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). Percutaneous extraction was performed using a novel technique with rat tooth/alligator forceps to successfully retrieve the Watchman from the LVOT using a transaortic approach.

Introduction: Acute coronary syndrome refers to a group of diseases characterized by sudden, decreased blood supply to the heart muscle that results in cell death, also known as acute myocardial infarction. This results in severe chest pain or discomfort, with the subsequent release of cardiac biomarkers, and alterations in the electrocardiogram. It can cause diminished heart function and mortality if not treated properly with suitable measures.

Aims: Treatment of patients with cancer presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is complex given the increased risk of both thrombotic and major bleeding complications.
Methods And Results: A nationally linked cohort of STEMI patients between January 2005 and March 2019 was obtained from the UK Myocardial Infarction National Audit Project and the UK National Hospital Episode Statistics Admitted Patient Care registries. The primary outcomes were major bleeding and re-infarction at 1 year following admission with STEMI.
