Sex-based differences in clinical outcomes among patients with obesity and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction treated with tirzepatide
Background: Sex-related differences are well recognized in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but real-world data describing clinical outcomes by sex among patients with obesity and HFpEF treated with tirzepatide rem...

Learning curve of two-incision thoracoscopic double valve replacement: Cumulative sum analysis of postoperative outcomes and proficiency in 252 operations from a single high-volume center
Background: Despite the increasing adoption of minimally invasive approaches for valvular heart disease, the learning trajectory for complex thoracoscopic double valve replacement (DVR) remains largely uncharacterized. Objectives: To eva...

Three-dimensional simulations for planning fenestrated/branched endografts in endovascular aneurysm repair for complex abdominal aortic aneurysm: a retrospective cohort study
Background: Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is used to treat patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who have suitable anatomy, while complex AAAs often require fenestrated and branched stent grafts, necessitating further refin...

Two-year real-world outcomes of coronary drug-coated balloon therapy: a retrospective comparative study of sirolimus- and paclitaxel-coated devices
Background: Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) represent a “leave-nothing-behind” strategy in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly for small vessel disease and in-stent restenosis. However, long-term comparative real-world dat...

The first 24-h negative fluid balance is related to lower short-term mortality but higher AKI progression in critically ill heart failure: a retrospective cohort study
Background: Current guidelines lack instruction on fluid administration for patients with critically ill heart failure (HF) in the intensive care unit. Objectives: This study aims to compare the risk of mortality and acute kidney injury ...
