Patients presenting with or alerting emergency networks due to acute heart failure (AHF) form a diverse group with a plethora of symptoms, risks, comorbidities, and aetiologies. During AHF, there is an increased risk of destabilizing the functional substrate and modulatory adding to the risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) already created by the structural substrate. New VAs during AHF have previously identified patients with higher intra-hospital and 60-day morbidity and mortality. Risk strati... Abstract

Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006), Volume 25, Issue 10, 1 1 2024, Pages 699-710 [Ten questions about infective endocarditis]. Fortuni F, Ciliberti G, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Franchin L, Magnesa M, Spinelli A, Vitale E, Cangemi S, Cornara S, Gabrielli D, Colivicchi F, Grimaldi M, Oliva F
Infective endocarditis (IE) is an infective process involving the endocardium and, more frequently, the native heart valves, valvular prostheses and cardiac implantable electronic devices. IE can manifest with various non-specific symptoms making the diagnosis challenging. This condition is associated with high in-hospital and long-term mortality. Therefore, it is particularly important to prevent it by implementing an adequate antibiotic prophylaxis especially in patients at high risk undergoin... Abstract

Inia JA, Attema J, de Ruiter C, Menke AL, Caspers MPM, Verschuren L, Wilson M, Arlantico A, Brightbill HD, Jukema JW, van den Hoek AM, Princen HMG, Chen MZ, Morrison MC
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a promising target for treatment of obesity-associated diseases including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and atherosclerosis. We evaluated the effects of the bispecific anti-FGF21-β klotho (KLB) agonist antibody bFKB1 in a preclinical model of MASH and atherosclerosis. Low-density lipoprotein receptor knockout (Ldlr-/-).Leiden mice received a high-fat diet for 20 weeks, followed by treatment with an isotype control antibody or bFKB1... Abstract
Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, Volume 19, Issue 1, 1 1 2024, Pages 560 Aortic root replacement for bicuspid aortic valve dysfunction does not impair survival rates. Dolmaci OB, van Maasakker NE, Poelmann RE, Klautz RJ, Grewal N
Background: Patients with a bicuspid aortic valve carry an increased risk for developing an ascending aortic aneurysm due to intrinsic aortic wall alterations. A lower threshold for aortic surgery may therefore be considered in these patients, especially in those who require aortic valve surgery. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of an isolated aortic valve replacement with that of an aortic root replacement in bicuspid aortic valve patients with an indication for aortic valve surgery. Me... Abstract

Brain communications, Volume 6, Issue 5, 1 1 2024, Pages fcae309 Sudden death in epilepsy: the overlap between cardiac and neurological factors. Shlobin NA, Thijs RD, Benditt DG, Zeppenfeld K, Sander JW
People with epilepsy are at risk of premature death, of which sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), sudden cardiac death (SCD) and sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) are the primary, partly overlapping, clinical scenarios. We discuss the epidemiologies, risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms for these sudden death events. We reviewed the existing evidence on sudden death in epilepsy. Classification of sudden death depends on the presence of autopsy and expertise of the clinic... Abstract

The global prevalence of obesity has more than doubled over the past four decades, currently affecting more than a billion individuals. Beyond its recognition as a high-risk condition that is causally linked to many chronic illnesses, obesity has been declared a disease per se that results in impaired quality of life and reduced life expectancy. Notably, two-thirds of obesity-related excess mortality is attributable to cardiovascular disease. Despite the increasingly appreciated link between obe... Abstract

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.), Volume 41, Issue 10, 1 1 2024, Pages e70006 Evolution and Prognostic Impact of Left Ventricular Myocardial Work Indices After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis. Wu HW, Fortuni F, Muzafarova T, Sarrazyn C, Lopez Santi P, Chua APA, Butcher SC, van der Kley F, de Weger A, Jukema JW, Bax JJ, Ajmone Marsan N
Purpose: Left ventricular myocardial work (LVMW) has been shown to better characterize LV function in patients with severe aortic stenosis by correcting LV afterload. The aim of this study was to evaluate the evolution in LVMW indices after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and their prognostic value. Methods: The following LVMW indices were calculated before and immediately after TAVR in 255 patients (median age 82 years, 51% male): global work index (GWI), global constructive work... Abstract
Cells, Volume 13, Issue 19, 30 5 2024, Pages 1636 Pulmonary and Systemic Immune Profiles Following Lung Volume Reduction Surgery and Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Treatment in Emphysema. Jia L, Li N, van Unen V, Zwaginga JJ, Braun J, Hiemstra PS, Koning F, Khedoe PPSJ, Stolk J
Emphysema in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive inflammation. Preclinical studies suggest that lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) and mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) treatment dampen inflammation. We investigated the effects of bone marrow-derived MSC (BM-MSC) and LVRS on circulating and pulmonary immune cell profiles in emphysema patients using mass cytometry. Blood and resected lung tissue were collected at the first LVRS (L1). Following... Abstract
