STEMI in large coronary arteries
Marc Bonnet, Grégoire Rangé, et al.

The study found that STEMI patients with L-IRAs were managed differently and experienced worse procedural and 1-year outcomes compared to those with N-IRAs.

Retrieval of a stuck TAVI device
Masakazu Yasuda, Gaku Nakazawa, et al.

A stuck transcatheter aortic valve device was successfully retrieved via the left ventricular apex, and a new valve was then implanted using the transapical approach after the complication.

QFR quality and reproducibility
Alexandra J. Lansky
The REPEAT-QFR substudy found that the reproducibility of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) is modest, with variability strongly linked to angiographic image quality and adherence to analytical standards. Poor-quality QFR analyses were associated with worse clinical outcomes.

Valve-in-root TAVI after aortic root operation
Alicja Zientara, Roman Gottardi, et al.
This study evaluated the feasibility of transcatheter valve-in-root procedures in patients who had previously undergone valve-sparing root repair or Bio-Bentall procedures. Key findings include anatomical considerations that may impact the feasibility of future valve-in-root implantation.

LETTER: Timing and efficiency in tricuspid TEER
Nikolaos Ktenopoulos, Konstantinos Toutouzas, et al.
The study reported 1-year outcomes of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair using the PASCAL system, showing a significant reduction in tricuspid regurgitation severity and improvements in functional status and quality of life.

Endomyocardial biopsy

Expert Review

Jan 6
Endomyocardial biopsy
Enrico Fabris, Gianfranco Sinagra, et al.
Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) is the gold-standard technique for diagnosing various cardiac disorders, including myocarditis and cardiomyopathies, though it carries a 1-5% risk of major complications.

REPLY: Timing and efficiency in tricuspid TEER
Stephan Baldus, Philipp Lurz, et al.
The study discusses the length of hospital stay for patients undergoing Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Edge-to-Edge Repair (T-TEER) procedures, with a median of 4.0 days reported in the TriCLASP study.

Rationale and design of the SURVIV randomised trial
Dimytri A. Siqueira, Fausto Feres, et al.

The SURVIV trial is a randomized controlled trial comparing transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve (mViV) procedure with surgical redo-mitral valve replacement (rMVR) for patients with mitral bioprosthetic valve dysfunction, with the primary endpoint being all-cause mortality or disabling stroke at 12 months.

SORT OUT X: 5-year results
Lars Jakobsen, Lisette O. Jensen, et al.
The study compared the performance of the dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting and CD34 antibody-coated COMBO stent (DTS) to the sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) in patients undergoing PCI. The DTS had higher early revascularization rates, despite similar long-term target lesion failure rates.

Predictors of underexpansion with ACURATE neo
Hector A. Alvarez-Covarrubias, Michael Joner, et al.
This retrospective study found that greater annular calcium volume was associated with underexpansion of the ACURATE transcatheter heart valve, while post-dilatation reduced the risk of underexpansion.

RADIANCE-HTN TRIO analysis on antihypertensive drugs
Victor J.M. Zeijen, Joost Daemen, et al.
Endovascular ultrasound renal denervation (uRDN) significantly reduced daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure by 5.9 mmHg compared to sham at 2 months in patients with resistant hypertension, with the effect maintained after adjusting for changes in antihypertensive medications.
