Left atrial inflow propagation velocity derived by color M-mode Doppler in acute heart failure.
Int J Cardiovasc Imaging
October 2022
Cardiovascular Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, USA.
Left atrial (LA) inflow propagation velocity from the pulmonary vein (LAIF-PV) has been proposed as a novel measure of LA reservoir function and is associated with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in critically ill patients. However, data on LAIF-PV in acute heart failure (AHF) are lacking. We sought to examine the feasibility of measuring LAIF-PV and evaluate clinical and echocardiographic correlates of LAIF-PV in AHF.

Article Synopsis
- Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) is being used more for treating cardiogenic shock related to heart attacks, but its effect on survival rates is unclear.
- In a multicenter trial, patients with an acute heart attack and planned revascularization were divided into two groups: one receiving ECLS along with standard treatment and the other receiving standard treatment alone, with death rates tracked after 30 days.
- Results showed no significant difference in mortality between the two groups, but the ECLS group experienced higher rates of bleeding and vascular complications.

Background: Patients with advanced midgut neuroendocrine tumors who have had disease progression during first-line somatostatin analogue therapy have limited therapeutic options. This randomized, controlled trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of lutetium-177 (Lu)-Dotatate in patients with advanced, progressive, somatostatin-receptor-positive midgut neuroendocrine tumors.
Methods: We randomly assigned 229 patients who had well-differentiated, metastatic midgut neuroendocrine tumors to receive either Lu-Dotatate (116 patients) at a dose of 7.

Context: Carcinoid syndrome (CS) is associated with elevated serotonin, diarrhea, flushing, and increased risk of valvular heart disease. Many patients respond to somatostatin analogs initially, but response diminishes in most patients. Additional options are needed.
