Prognostic Value of Serum Lipoprotein(a) Levels in Japanese Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
✨ Key Finding: Elevated lipoprotein(a) levels (≥47.26 mg/dL) nearly doubled the risk of 5-year major adverse cardiovascular events (HR 1.953, 95% CI 1.256–3.034, p=0.003) in Japanese STEMI patients.
“In Japanese patients with STEMI, elevated Lp(a) levels were independently associated with worse long-term outcomes. By Kensaku Nishihira https://t.co/p4jMUDtGsE #circ_j #CardioX https://t.co/k5QFtV3ej9”
Hospital-level Variability in NSTEMI Management: Findings from the NCDR Chest Pain–MI Registry
✨ Key Finding: Invasive coronary angiography in 87.1% of NSTEMI patients was linked to 64% lower in-hospital mortality vs conservative management (weighted OR 0.36).
Machine learning and Regression–Based models for prediction of postoperative atrial fibrillation following coronary artery bypass grafting: A systematic review and meta-analysis
✨ Key Finding: Machine learning models predict postoperative atrial fibrillation after CABG with moderate accuracy (AUC 0.84, sensitivity 73%, specificity 83%) but face high heterogeneity.

Wearable cardioverter-defibrillator in patients with non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy: a meta-analysis
✨ Key Finding: The use of a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator resulted in a 1% delivery rate of appropriate shocks in patients with non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy, indicating a significant risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias during the medical optimization period.
Angiography-Derived Fractional Flow Reserve During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
✨ Key Finding: Angio-FFR use during PCI showed similar 2-year MACE rates (24.8% vs 23.5%; HR 1.01) compared to pressure wire guidance in US Medicare patients.
Impact of advanced cardiac damage in severe aortic stenosis on short-term and mid-term mortality and rehospitalisation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation: a systematic review and meta-analysis
✨ Key Finding: Advanced cardiac damage stages post-TAVI increase 12-month mortality: borderline HR 1.61, stage 3 HR 2.06, and stage 4 HR 2.77; stage 4 has highest CV mortality HR 3.13.
Differences in Disease Trajectory, Comorbidities, and Mortality in Sarcomeric and Nonsarcomeric Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
✨ Key Finding: Sarcomeric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is linked to a worse prognosis, necessitating vigilant surveillance and lower thresholds for advanced therapies.
A Critical Contribution of Cardiac Myofibroblasts in Right Ventricular Failure and the Role of UCP2 SNPs in the Predisposition to RV Decompensation in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
✨ Key Finding: A change from cardiac fibroblasts to cardiac myofibroblasts in the right ventricle is a driver of decompensation in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
YAP Induces a Prorenewal Metabolic State in Cardiomyocytes
✨ Key Finding: YAP induces a prorenewal metabolic state in cardiomyocytes, enhancing their potential for proliferation and heart regeneration.
PRMT3-Mediated Arginine Methylation Stabilizes PCSK9 to Promote Aortic Valve Calcification
✨ Key Finding: PRMT3-mediated arginine methylation stabilizes PCSK9, promoting aortic valve calcification in valve interstitial cells during calcific aortic valve disease.
