Interplay between mitochondrial dysfunction and lysosomal storage: challenges in genetic metabolic muscle diseases with a focus on infantile onset Pompe disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Background Pompe disease (PD) is a rare, progressive autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder that directly impacts mitochondrial function, leading to structural abnormalities and potentially culminating in heart failure or cardiogenic shock. Further genetic testing identified a homozygous mutation c.2662G>T

Percutaneous Left Ventricular Unloading During High-Risk Coronary Intervention: Rationale and Design of the CHIP-BCIS3 Randomized Controlled Trial

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

INTRODUCTION:Percutaneous coronary intervention for complex coronary disease is associated with a high risk of cardiogenic shock. This can cause harm and limit the quality of revascularization achieved, especially when left ventricular function is impaired at the outset.

The early and mid-term outcomes of acute type A aortic dissection patients with ECMO

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCS) is a severe complication following ATAAD repair that complicates postoperative recovery. Interpretation is limited by the retrospective single-center design, small ECMO cohort size, and lack of post-discharge quality-of-life data.
