Pulmonary artery sling (PAS) is a rare congenital anomaly where the left pulmonary artery (LPA) branches from the right pulmonary artery, compressing the trachea and esophagus and frequently leading to respira.

The rarest form of renal ectopia, the thoracic kidney, has been documented in only about 200 cases worldwide. There are four recognized causes of congenital thoracic renal ectopia: renal ectopia with an intact.

Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) in the context of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) encompasses a broad spectrum of phenotypes with associated disparate outcomes. We evaluate the impact of ‘ongoing AKI’ on prognosis and cardiorenal outcomes and describe predictors of ‘ongoing AKI’ Methods A prospective multicentre observational study of patients admitted with ADHF requiring intravenous furosemide was completed, with urinary angiotensinogen (uAGT) measured at b

Background Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction leads to an increase in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and potentially right heart failure in healthy individuals and patients with respiratory diseases. Previous studies in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exposed to hypobaric hypoxia have shown an increase in PAP, while traditional echocardiographic parameters revealed only minimal changes at high altitude.

Background Increasing demand for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) places greater emphasis on the efficiency of pathways and services. A significant limitation to increasing TAVI capacity is the availability of cardiac catheterisation laboratory time. We have developed a novel complexity scoring system (TAVI ComplEXity; TEX score) which can aid in planning lists with appropriate case selection.

Introduction The impact of sex on coronary artery disease prognosis is debated. It has been postulated that women receive less prompt treatment compared with men, potentially adversely affecting their prognosis by significantly increasing the risk of morbidity and mortality. We aim to investigate the influence of sex on the timing and clinical outcomes of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients using a controlled Swiss registry.

Greetings! Whether you’re a long-time reader or a new subscriber, I want to hear from you. Has a study breakdown, long-form research deep dive, or podcast interview that I’ve posted caused you to change your training, nutrition, or other habits? Maybe there was a small change you made to your post-workout recovery or something you added (or removed) from your diet?
