Cardiovascular outcomes in long COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Long COVID-19 was associated with a higher risk of thromboembolic disorders [HR 3.12 (1.60, 6.08)], coronary heart disease [HR 1.61 (1.13, 2.31)], stroke [HR 1.71 (1.07,2.72)], arrhythmia [HR 1.60 (1.13, 2.26)], cardiomyopathy [HR 1.71 (1.12, 2.61)], myocarditis [HR 6.11 (4.17,8.94)], hypertension [HR 1.70 (1.56, 1.85)], heart failure [HR 1.72 (1.15,2.59)] (..)

Optimal antithrombotic therapy after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: a comprehensive review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Subclinical leaflet thrombosis is observed in 10%20% of patients, though its clinical significance remains uncertain. Clinical valve thrombosis is rare. Ongoing trials aim to clarify optimal antithrombotic regimens and strategies for preventing subclinical leaflet thrombosis.

TAVI Matches SAVR in Lower Risk Aortic Valve Patients: 10 year outcomes

Cardiology Update

The NOTION trial, a pioneering study, sought to compare the long-term clinical and bioprosthesis outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR) in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) at lower surgical risk. No cases of clinical valve thrombosis were reported.

Outcome of antithrombotic therapy in cancer patients with catheter-related thrombosis: a systematic review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Introduction The guidelines' recommendations for anticoagulation in cancer patients with catheter-related thrombosis are unclear. The aim of this systematic review was to assess anticoagulation management in cancer patients with catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) based on previously published studies.

Intravascular Imaging Can Improve Outcomes for Complex Stenting Procedures

DAIC

The ECLIPSE trial shows that use of IVI to guide coronary stenting in severely calcified lesions prevents death, stent thrombosis, and unplanned repeat procedures in this high-risk patient population. The ECLIPSE trial results were presented at the American College of Cardiology Scientific Session (ACC.25)

Transcatheter Valve Replacement Outcomes Similar to Surgery in Long-Term Analysis

DAIC

In the meta-analysis of seven randomized trials, published in JSCAI and presented at the 2024 EuroPCR conference in Paris, France, researchers compared the outcomes of 7,785 patients undergoing TAVR (a procedure that delivers a new aortic valve into the heart through a catheter) to those undergoing SAVR for severe aortic stenosis.

Rivaroxaban Beyond 6 Weeks: Enhancing Outcomes in Isolated Distal Deep Vein Thrombosis

American College of Cardiology

The optimal management of isolated, distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) remains unclear. Data from recent studies suggest that certain patients may benefit from anticoagulation.
