This video is a balanced, gripping presentation on an increasingly common emergency problem for the on-call cardiac surgeon. Professor Oo discusses the evolving landscape of surgery for acute De Bakey...
This paper details an under-development animal model to study the vascular pathology of vein grafts in a variation of the initial Carrel canine bypass experiment. The possible findings on detrimental...
In a research letter on a small pilot genomic study of sampling coronary atheroma, the authors offer a brief explanation on how their technique can be applied to detect stability...
This five-year follow-up of a large randomized controlled clinical trial on outcomes after transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of severe mitral regurgitation, as compared with outcomes after maximal doses of guideline-directed medical...
This study compared vein bypass with best endovascular treatment for chronic limb-threatening ischemia. The twice-quoted phrase of the RCT manuscript: “Participants were excluded if they had ischemic pain or tissue...
A free-access short editorial summarising a clinical question that may become central in cardiothoracic practice in future. The two paragraphs on Coronaviruses are of more generalised interest. Surgeons embarking in...
Quite possibly, this manuscript is projected to have the highest impact on patient care and industry for the immediate future. It provides an unusually clear narrative, and findings of a...
This editorial describes the evolving pathway of diagnosing a disease that is predicted to augment the indication for orthotopic cardiac transplantation. Cardiac involvement of sarcoidosis accounts for the majority of...
Plasma metabolomic profiles were examined to determine differences in social determinants of health between Black and white women. This observational study paves the groundwork for further investigation of social disparity...
There could be some translational value for cardiovascular surgical practice from this prospective cardiovascular health study. The mechanistic link warrants further investigation and interpretation.
