Beating-Heart techniques, such as Off-pump CABG (OP-CAB) and Pump-Assist Direct CABG (PAD-CAB), have been shown to improve outcomes in certain high-risk CABG patients [4]. In an effort to determine whether or not the Beating-Heart technique reduces the risk of mortality and morbidity in...
European Journal of Medical Research 2017, 22(Suppl 1):S3 I will discuss recent advances in the field of cardiology, and how the management of the patients has changed in the last decade. What are the recent advances in Interventional Cardiology? What is the future of research in Cardiology?
The exclusion criteria were as follows: coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG); cardiogenic shock; comorbidities with malignant tumors; other patients with a life expectancy of less than 1 year; refractory end-stage heart failure (LVEF < 30%); suspected familial hypertriglyceridemia (triglycerides > ...
To ensure good surgical conditions, a still and blood empty heart is achieved by cardioplegia followed by extracorporal circulation in the form of cardiopulmonary bypass [14]. This surgical procedure is named coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). In some patients, coronary artery bypass graft ...
Additionally, the association between an elevated TyG index and MACE was also found in patients with TVD plus left main involvement. Interaction between the TyG index and the treatment strategy In this cohort, 2676 (30.2%), 3789 (42.8%), and 2397 (27.0%) patients received CABG, PCI, or ...
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death, with ischemic heart disease being a significant contributor. While percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) effectively reduces mortality in myocardial infarction patients, its efficacy for unstable angina (UA) patients is controversial. Complications associa...
This single center study compares the different surgical techniques used in the treatment of acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) analyzing the influence of the extent of the surgical approach on outcome. From 1988 to 2012, 407 patients were operated fo

Compared with heart valve surgery, CABG, congenital surgery, and vascular surgery were associated with a greater incidence of postoperative HB (all P < 0.05). Fig. 3 Incidence of postoperative HB in different cardiac surgeries. HB: black bar. Non-HB: gray bar Full size image Patient ...
We also recorded patients’ surgical procedures including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Missing values greater than 30% of parameters were excluded due to potential bias. Endpoint event The endpoint of this study was all-cause in-hospital ...
