Background: Patients with distant metastases have an unfavourable prognosis, but patients with isolated pulmonary metastases should generally not be considered hopeless. Complete resection of metachronous and solitary metastases leads to prolonged survival; however, the influence of the location, distribution and bilaterality of pulmonary metastases needs to be investigated further. This article aimed to investigate the role of the distribution of lung metastases in primary colorectal and renal cell cancer patients on prognosis.

Article Synopsis
- A study aimed to improve pediatric pharmacotherapy through a quality assurance measure called PaedPharm, which seeks to reduce medication-related hospitalizations in children and adolescents.
- The PaedPharm intervention included a digital drug information system, professional quality circles, and an adverse drug event reporting system, and was tested in a cluster-randomized trial across 12 regions.
- Results showed a reduction in adverse drug event-related hospitalizations, with a decrease from 4.1% to 3.1%, but the results were not statistically significant; however, the intervention was well-accepted by healthcare providers.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) using MitraClip devices in oldest-old patients compared to younger patients.
Methods: The study retrospectively included 340 consecutive patients who underwent TMVR. Patients were classified according to age into the oldest-old (age ≥ 85 years) patient group or the younger (age < 85 years) patient group.

RWTH University Hospital Aachen, Internal Medicine I, Cardiology, Angiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Aachen, Germany.
Background: There are only limited data on patients with diabetes undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in real-world settings. Previous data indicated patients with diabetes to have a worse prognosis. This study sought to evaluate safety and efficacy of TEER in patients with diabetes in a real-world cohort.

Randomized and observational trials have shown a reduction in HF-related hospitalizations and improved quality of life in patients using this device in the United States.
Objective: MEMS-HF is a prospective, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter study to characterize safety and feasibility of using remote PA pressure monitoring in a real-world setting in Germany, The Netherlands and Ireland.
