MEDICAL TREATMENT IMPLEMENTATION IN AMBULATORY PATIENTS WITH HF: PRELIMINARY DATA FROM THE NATIONWIDE BRING-UP3 HF STUDY
Anno:
2025
Background: Current ESC guidelines introduced a four-pillar approach for the treatment of HFrEF, and a Class IA recommendation for Empagliflozin and Dapagliflozin in HFmrEF and HFpEF. Objectives: BRING-UP-3 Heart Failure (HF) study was designed to guide the Guideline implementation recommendations in HF patients enrolled by a large sample of…
PULSE WAVE VELOCITY PROGRESSION DETERMINANTS: NO SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATION WITH NOVEL LIPID PARAMETERS
Anno:
2025
Background and Aims: Lipid profiles, including both traditional and novel parameters, have been linked to arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity-PWV) over time. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between standard and emerging lipid parameters (e.g., non-HDL/HDL, LDL/HDL, total cholesterol/HDL, Log TG/HDL, and the triglyceride-glucose index [TyG]) and changes…
DIASTOLIC-TO-SYSTOLIC CORONARY VELOCITY RATIO ON REST TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY AND OUTCOME IN 1433 SUBJECTS WITH SUSPECTED CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
Anno:
2025
Background. A low coronary diastolic-systolic flow velocity ratio in resting condition (DSVR) is associated with functionally significant coronary artery disease (CAD), but whether it is associated with cardiovascular outcome is not known. While commonly perceived as an exclusively invasive measurement, DSVR is in fact also incidentally measured during stress…
UNRESOLVED ISSUE: INVASIVE CORONARY ANGIOGRAPHY DURING FIRST HOSPEDALIZATION FOR AHF WITH REDUCED EF
Anno:
2025
Ischaemic cardiomyopathy is the leading cause of HFrEF and revascularization combined with GDMT synergistically improves systolic LV function and overall prognosis in patients with ischaemic HFrEF. According to current ESC guidelines, invasive coronary angiography may be considered in patients with HFrEF with an intermediate to high pre-test probability of…
Post-operative Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling in Severe Aortic Valve Regurgitation After TAVI vs SAVR
Anno:
2025
Background: Severe native aortic regurgitation is characterized by volume overload and structural myocardial changes leading to progressive left ventricular dysfunction. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) may favor left ventricle reverse remodeling (LVRR). Objectives: To evaluate the immediate and mid-term LVRR in patients treated…
THE PARACHUTING TECHNIQUE. MULTICENTER EXPERIENCE WITH A NEW SURGICAL APPROACH FOR POST-INFARCTION VENTRICULAR SEPTAL DEFECT CLOSURE WITHOUT VENTRICULOTOMY
Anno:
2025
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy and report the early multicentre experience of an innovative surgical technique for post-infarction ventricular septal defect (MI-VSD) closure using two hand-made composite patches (two Teflon layers and one pericardial layer sewed together) parachuted through a transversal aortotomy and a right atriotomy, without…
Ventricular Tachycardia in Cardiac Sarcoidosis: To Immunosuppress or Not?
Anno:
2025
Background: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown etiology, commonly affecting the lungs, and lymphatic system. Clinically evident cardiac involvement occurs in about 5% of cases, presenting as bradyarrhythmias, VT, and heart failure. However, many patients have subclinical disease and autopsies show cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) in 20–29% of systemic…
A CASE OF MITOCHONDRIAL DISEASE IN ADULTHOOD PRESENTING WITH HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY
Anno:
2025
A 36 y.o. man came to medical attention for a screening cardiological examination. The man, who lived in U.S. for 15 years, had returned to Italy to visit his family. He did not report any symptoms or cardiac history. ECG showed Q waves in the inferior leads with elevation…
EFFECTIVENESS OF PERCUTANEOUS STELLATE GANGLION BLOCKADE IN THE TREATMENT OF ARRHYTHMIC STORM. ROLE OF THE UNDERLYING HEART DISEASE.
Anno:
2025
Introduction   The sympathetic nervous system plays a crucial role in the genesis and maintenance of ventricular arrhythmias, which are frequently observed in patients with various types of heart disease. Percutaneous stellate ganglion blockade (PSGB) has been shown to be an effective and safe treatment for managing arrhythmic storm….
Hope in miniature: the first case of implantation of a tiny pacemaker in Italy as successful treatment for congenital atrioventricular block in a very-low-birth-weight child.
Anno:
2025
A 31-year-old woman (G3P2) was referred to our specialized center during her 29th week of gestation, for fetal high-grade atrioventricular block. Fetal ultrasound revealed persistent high-grade atrioventricular block, with an average heart rate of 35 bpm, to a nadir of 20 bpm; both ventricles appeared hypokinetic; vasodilatation of middle…
