Successful extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for heart failure after adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery.
Eur Spine J
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic, MacKay Memorial Hospital, No. 92, Sec. 2, Zhongshan N. Rd, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: Spine surgery, particularly deformity correction, is associated with a high risk of peri-operative or post-operative complications, and these complications can lead to catastrophic consequences. This case report will present the etiology and treatment process of the peri-operative cardiac arrest during scoliosis correction surgery.
Method: In this report, we present a case of cardiac arrest during posterior correction surgery in a 17-year-old female patient with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Thrombopoietin receptor agonists are used in addition to steroids for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. A 55-year-old male with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, treated with eltrombopag, developed a rapid decline in renal function following the increase in eltrombopag dose. Renal biopsy showed glomerular endothelial disorder and platelet thrombus, which suggested eltrombopag-induced renal-limited thrombotic microangiopathy.

Chazov National Medical Research Center of Cardiology 121552, Academician Chazov str., 15a, Moscow, Russia.
Aim: to assess the relation of focal and diffuse left ventricular (LV) fibrosis to left bundle branch block (LBBB).
Materials And Methods: 60 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and LBBB (DCM-LBBB), 50 DCM-nonLBBB patients, 15 patients with LBBB and structurally normal heart (idiopathic LBBB) and 10 healthy volunteers (HV) underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). LGE LV images were post-proceeded for core scar (CS) and gray zone (GZ) calculation.
Heart Failure Is Closely Associated With the Expression Characteristics of Type I Interferon-Related Genes.
Clin Cardiol
January 2025
Department of Geriatrics, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.
Background: The association between the expression of type I interferon related genes (TIIRGs) and EFrHF is not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the expression patterns of TIIRGs and EFrHF using bioinformatics analysis.
Materials And Methods: An analysis was conducted to examine the expression and distribution of TIIRGs in cardiomyocytes.
An hiPSC-CM approach for electrophysiological phenotyping of a patient-specific case of short-coupled TdP.

Department of Medical Physiology, University Medical Center Utrecht, Utrecht, The Netherlands.
Introduction: A healthy young woman, age 26 without prior cardiac complications, experienced an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest caused by ventricular fibrillation (VF), which coincided with a fever. Comprehensive diagnostics including echo, CMR, exercise testing, and genetic sequencing, did not identify any potential cause. This led to the diagnosis of idiopathic VF and installment of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, which six months later appropriately intervened another VF episode under conditions comparable to the first event.
