Background and objectives: The clinical significance of worsening renal function (WRF) in elderly patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is not completely understood. We compared the clinical conditions between younger and elderly patients with ADHF after the appearance of WRF to establish its prognostic influence. Methods: We in...

Reducing radiation exposure is a very important issue in interventional cardiology techniques such as percutaneous coronary intervention. Although novel techniques to reduce radiation exposure are valuable, we should also reconsider older techniques. Digital zoom has been available in Japan from 2005. Digital zoom enlarges an 8-inch field of view (...

Background Serum lactate level can predict clinical outcomes in some critical cases. In the clinical setting, we noted that patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) and with poor serum lactate improvement often do not recover from cardiopulmonary arrest. Therefore, we investigated the association between lactate clear...

We report the case of a 13-year-old girl who presented with cardiac collapse secondary to compression of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) between the pulmonary artery and the ascending aorta. In the acute phase, we performed aortography, intra-vascular ultrasound (IVUS), coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), transthoracic echocardiog...

... A disfunção renal é uma comorbidade comum em pacientes com IC, e o curso clínico da IC avançada é frequentemente caracterizado por resistência diurética 47 . Se a sobrecarga de volume persistir, apesar do uso de doses diuréticas estáveis, a dose do diurético de alça pode ser duplicada inicialmente, seguida pela administração de outros tipos de diuréticos, como tiazidas ou metolazona 48 . ...
... Given these features, Zoom-based coaching would enable clients to engage more deeply with their coaches, and develop close coaching relationships (Simpson et al., 2021). The combined benefits of Zoom-based therapy (Torous et al., 2020;Wind et al., 2020) make it an attractive alternative to faceto-face therapy (Datta et al., 2020;Hasegawa et al., 2020;Newell, 2021). ...
... In TA patients, arterial inflammation leads to structural impairment and irregular thickening of the arteries. It has been shown that endothelial functional impairment leads to platelet aggregation and coagulopathy, which results in lumen stenosis and thrombotic occlusion other than plaque rupture or calcification (7,8). Angiography is considered the gold standard for diagnosis and is used to classify TA into phenotypes according to the distribution of inflammation (9). ...
... patients had persistent multiorgan failure with low clearance, which was higher than that of the high clearance group. Mizutani et al. showed that 6hour lactate clearance after extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation was the most important predictor of inhospital mortality in patients, and lactate clearance = 65% is a better cutoff value for extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in predicting hospital mortality [32]. A study of severely ill children with high fever in East Africa showed that when 8-hour lactate clearance <10%, the death rate at 72-hour would increase [33]. ...
... Although higher LC in post-CA patients is associated with improved outcomes (13,22,23), the effectiveness of LC in predicting outcomes in ECPR remains controversial. Mizutani et al (24) reported that the 6-hour LC predicted in-hospital survival in patients receiving ECPR, whereas Jung et al (25) reported that the 6-hour LC did not predict 30-day survival. The patient selection criteria were different between these studies and the present study. ...
