Additionally, viability testing did not differentiate patients who could benefit from PCI, although scar burden was found to be a significant predictor of outcome in these patients.Summary: The outcomes of REVIVED have challenged multiple existing beliefs in the field of ischaemic left ventricular dysfunction management, emphasising the importance of investigating evidence free areas in our practice.

This review discusses advancements in nuclear imaging techniques that enhance the diagnosis and guide the management of cardiac amyloidosis, addressing the critical need for early and accurate detection in clinical practice.Recent findings: Recent studies and guidelines emphasizes the pivotal role of nuclear imaging techniques in diagnosing cardiac amyloidosis. Cardiac scintigraphy, using bone-avid tracers like 99mTc-PYP, 99mTc-DPD, and 99mTc-HMDP, is instrumental in distinguishing between transthyretin amyloidosis and light chain amyloidosis. PET, with tracers such as 11C-Pittsburgh Compound B (11C-PiB) and 18F-Florbetapir, offers significant potential in measuring amyloid burden and monitoring disease progression, providing detailed insights into the myocardial involvement.Summary: The advancements in nuclear imaging techniques significantly impact the management of cardiac amyloidosis. These methods allow for a more accurate diagnosis, detailed assessment of disease extent, and better differentiation between amyloidosis types, which are crucial for tailoring treatment approaches. The integration of these techniques into clinical practice is essential for improving patient outcomes and advancing research in cardiac amyloidosis.","PeriodicalId":55197,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Cardiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141536035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, we aim to provide a practical overview of the broad approaches being utilized in the burgeoning field of device-based therapies for heart failure.Recent findings: Currently, a diverse array of devices for HF treatment is being developed and tested, each targeting distinct aspects of HF pathophysiology. These innovative solutions encompass a wide spectrum, ranging from devices enabling remote monitoring of HF associated physiological parameters, to those focused on creating interatrial shunts and effecting structural modifications of the left ventricle, as well as to those designed to modulate the autonomic nervous system and diaphragm. Notably, a subset of these emerging devices is directed towards treating patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, a population that has traditionally not been served by device-based therapies.Summary: In recent decades, there has been a remarkable surge in the development and utilization of device-based treatments for managing HF. It is important for physicians to be familiar with these devices, their mechanisms of action, and their applications.","PeriodicalId":55197,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Cardiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141898971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SLT may occur following both transcatheter aortic replacement (TAVR) or biological surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). The aim of this review is to present an overview of the current state of knowledge on the incidence, diagnosis, clinical impact, and management of SLT following TAVR or SAVR.Recent findings: SLT occurs in 10-20% of patients following TAVR and is somewhat more frequent than following SAVR (5-15%). SLT may regress spontaneously without treatment in about 50% of the cases but may also progress to clinically significant valve thrombosis in some cases. Oral anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonist is reasonable if SLT is detected by echocardiography and/or MDCT during follow-up and is generally efficient to reverse SLT. SLT is associated with mild increase in the risk of stroke but has no impact on survival. SLT has been linked with accelerated structural valve deterioration and may thus impact valve durability and long-term outcomes.Summary: SLT is often an incidental finding on echocardiography or MDCT that occurs in 10-20% of patients following TAVR or 5-15% following biological SAVR and is associated with a mild increase in the risk of thrombo-embolic event with no significant impact on mortality but may be associated with reduced valve durability.","PeriodicalId":55197,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Cardiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141428373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Historically, women have been excluded from cardiac surgery trials, in part due to restrictive inclusion criteria. Surgical outcomes, specifically after coronary artery bypass grafting, are consistently worse among female patients, and these outcomes have not improved over the last decade. Addressing treatment effects and clinical benefit among women requires accurate representation in cardiovascular surgery trials. ROMA:Women, is the first cardiac surgery trial to focus solely on women, with the goal of addressing underrepresentation. Through utilizing specific strategies, ROMA:Women is a promising first step in advancing health equity.Summary: Strategies to ensure effective recruitment and representation among women in cardiac surgery clinical trials, such as tailored eligibility criteria and comprehensive strategies to improve communication and increase trust, are two of many potential approaches to address the structural barriers to female representation in cardiac surgery clinical trials. To date, ROMA:Women is an example of a trial that has shown extraordinary preliminary success enrolling women.

Depletion of vascular regenerative cells in the bone marrow - coupled with decreased mobilization into circulation - can negatively impact the capacity for vascular repair and exacerbate CVD risk. Several recent studies have established that although South Asian individuals possess similar inflammatory cell burden compared with other ethnicities, they exhibit marked decreases in vessel regenerative hematopoietic progenitor cells and monocyte subsets. Validation of these findings and investigation the functional capacity of vascular regenerative cell subsets to mediate vessel repair is highly warranted.Summary: Vascular regenerative cells play a key role coordinating angiogenic and arteriogenic vessel remodelling. Recent studies have demonstrated that South Asian individuals with T2D show severe depletion in circulating vascular regenerative cell subsets.
