When atrial fibrillation meets acute myocardial infarction: a hidden risk deman...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and has been observed in up to 21% of hospitalized patients experiencing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Potential triggers of AF in this context include hemodynamic instability resulting from left ventricular dysfunction, pericardial inflammation, atrial ischemia or infarction, metabolic disturbances, and elevated levels of endogenous ...

Is Sleep a Neglected Cornerstone in Brain Health and Perioperative Medicine?

A narrative review of revascularization in chronic coronary syndrome/disease: c...

Ischemic heart disease represents a significant global burden of morbidity and mortality. While revascularization strategies are well defined in acute settings, there are uncertainties regarding chronic coronary artery disease treatment. Recent trials have raised doubts about the necessity of revascularization for "stable", chronic coronary syndromes or disease, leading to a shift towards a more conservative ap...

Anesthetic management integrated in “Aorta Team” approach for Total endovascula...

Total endovascular aortic arch repair is nowadays a promising alternative for selected patients with aortic arch disease. These endovascular procedures are technically challenging and require a diligent planning among all members of a multidisciplinary “Aorta Team” integrating cardiovascular anesthesiologists. In fact, endovascular aortic arch repair is a major challenge for anesthesiologists because of the ris...

Coronary artery calcium identified on non-gated chest CT scans: a wasted opport...

Background: Coronary artery calcium (CAC) evaluated on dedicated cardiac computed tomography (CT) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular events. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between CAC detected on non-gated standard chest CT and coronary lesions on coronary angiography (CAG) and determine its impact on prognosis. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent CAG due to acute coronary syndr...

A Frailty – A preoperative index to be screened

Nano- and microparticle-stabilized Pickering emulsions designed for topical the...

Pickering emulsions are systems composed of two immiscible fluids, which are stabilized by solid organic or inorganic particles. These solid particles include a broad range of particles that can be used to stabilize Pickering emulsions. An improved resistance against coalescence and lower toxicity, against conventional emulsions stabilized by surfactants, make Pickering emulsions suitable candidates for numerou...

Indirect consequences of coronavirus disease 2019: Skin lesions caused by the f...

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enforced the use of hand sanitation and of personal protective equipment, such as masks and visors, especially by health-care professionals, but also by the general public. However, frequent hand sanitation and the prolonged and continuous use of personal protective equipment are responsib...
