Summary: This study found that patients with LV remodeling after acute anterior STEMI exhibited more inhomogeneous MW distribution, and the absolute difference of MW distribution between culprit and non-culprit territory at the acute phase was an independent predictor for early LV remodeling.

Summary: This study evaluated the role of ST-segment resolution (STR) and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow in reperfusion evaluation after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. The results showed that STR =50% and complete STR were significantly associated with lower 2-year mortality compared to STR <50%. Additionally, the combination of STR and TIMI flow provided incremental prognostic information beyond either measure alone.

Summary: In this real-world study conducted in Peru, no differences were found in the in-hospital outcomes between patients with STEMI who received PIs or PPCI. PIs patients were younger and had shorter first medical contact time and total ischemic time until reperfusion compared to PPCI patients.

Summary: The study found a weak correlation between LVEDP and LUS in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. In multivariable analysis, LUS was significantly associated with in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events, new cardiogenic shock, and in-hospital mortality, while LVEDP showed no significant association with these outcomes.

Summary: This study evaluated the predictive value of global and regional left ventricular myocardial work for left ventricular remodelling in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) before discharge. The results showed that the cardiac work index before discharge is independently associated with early adverse left ventricular remodelling in STEMI patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and optimal medical therapy.

Summary: Simultaneous thrombosis in multiple coronary arteries is a rare finding in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. It is difficult to detect using 12-lead electrocardiography and often leads to cardiogenic shock and fatal outcomes. Immediate revascularization and mechanical circulatory support are necessary.

Summary: We compared the outcomes of NSTEMI patients who underwent successful stent implantation based on their pre-PCI TIMI grade and SBT time. We found that shortening the SBT time may benefit the survival of NSTEMI patients. The outcomes differed between the pre-PCI TIMI 0/1 group and the TIMI 2/3 group.

Summary: In Western Denmark, the implementation of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has led to a significant reduction in 1-year mortality, with the greatest decline occurring within the first 30 days after pPCI. This highlights the importance of optimizing early management for improving overall survival in STEMI patients.

Summary: Periprocedural myocardial injury and myocardial infarction are common complications of percutaneous coronary intervention, associated with increased short- and long-term mortality. Inflammation levels before, during, and after the procedure are linked to higher rates of myonecrosis and future cardiovascular events. In addition to inflammation from underlying coronary disease, PCI itself triggers an acute inflammatory response.

Summary: The study found that NSTE-ACS patients with MVD undergoing MV-PCI and CO-PCI had similar mortality rates at long-term follow-up, but the MV-PCI group showed improved event-free survival in terms of fewer coronary reinterventions.

Summary: An analysis of National Health Insurance data in Korea showed that pre-existing depression does not have a significant impact on mortality in patients with established coronary artery disease undergoing PCI. However, younger patients with angina and depression may have a higher risk of all-cause mortality.

Summary: Successful closure of large bore vascular access can be achieved with the MANTA vascular closure device, but it is crucial to measure the depth from skin to arterial wall at the access site before dilation above 8 Fr. Challenges may arise in obtaining deployment depth at the beginning of the procedure, but a novel technique can lead to successful delayed closure.

Summary: The study focused on the feasibility and safety of using percutaneous upper-extremity access for mechanical circulatory support, with a high success rate of implantation (98%). Complications mainly included bleeding and stroke, with a significant number of patients experiencing postoperative hematoma or bleeding. Duration of support appeared to be associated with an increased risk of vascular complications. Further larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: This study aims to explore whether Apple Watch, used as a long-term monitoring device, is effective in the early diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (AF) and the prevention of cognitive function decline in older adults. By using AI-ECG to screen high-risk patients and record electrocardiograms, the effectiveness of Apple Watch will be evaluated. If successful, this approach could have significant implications on how future clinical practice leverages consumer devices for early diagnosis and disease prevention.
