Unlabelled: This study aims to determine the incidence, clinical course, and risk factors of hypothyroidism following cardiac catheter (CC) in infants with congenital heart diseases (CHD). This prospective study involved 115 patients with CHD, all aged 3 years or younger, who underwent CC, as well as 100 healthy age- and sex-matched controls. Baseline thyroid function tests (TFTs) were conducted for both the patients and controls.

Background: The longitudinal effects of educational interventions in people with abdominal aortic aneurysm are largely unexplored. This prospective study investigated whether the anxiety-lowering effect of an eHealth intervention observed at the 1-month follow-up is maintained 1 year after abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery.
Methods: Those scheduled for surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm were recruited in a single-centre randomized clinical trial.

The year 2024 has witnessed substantial advancements in interventional cardiology, encompassing both coronary and structural interventions.In coronary field, trials have explored percutaneous innovations for coronary lesions, strategies for managing post‑infarction cardiogenic shock and non‑invasive approaches for guiding revascularization. The uploaded guidelines for chronic coronary syndromes emphasize individualized care, integrating modalities such as fractional flow reserve (FFR), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and new teatments, including cochicine, GLP-1 receptor agonists and bempedoic acid.

Introduction: Management of patients with large aortic arch aneurysms who are considered high risk for frozen elephant trunk technique have been challenging, especially when they have a dilated ascending aorta (AA) that precludes total endovascular branched repair (arch BEVAR). A viable option in our armamentarium is wrapping of the AA (AW), and zone 0 Ishimaru TEVAR.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of our aortic database from 2013 to 2024 to select high-risk patients with aortic arch aneurysm that had an AW and TEVAR.
Most thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) are asymptomatic and often diagnosed at the time of rupture. TAAs involving the proximal arch require adequate coverage with thoracic endovascular aortic repair, which is timely and challenging in emergent ruptures. In situ laser fenestration is a novel method of arch revascularization.
