Summary: Provider variability in Intermacs Patient Profile assignments previously existed during durable left ventricular assist device implantation. To address this, a novel algorithm was successfully developed to standardize the derivation of a patient’s Intermacs Patient Profile acuity. This algorithm assists clinicians in making more consistent patient acuity assessments for durable left ventricular assist device candidacy.

Summary: Heart failure represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with systemic autoimmune inflammatory diseases. A retrospective cohort study of 182795 adult patients with these conditions successfully described the specific heart failure risk profiles within this population. The study also identified associations between cardiovascular drug use and the occurrence of incident heart failure. This provides important information on cardiac disease burden and potential therapeutic impacts in systemic autoimmune inflammatory diseases.

Summary: The study identified preliminary associations between enlarged perivascular spaces and cerebrovascular small-vessel disease, cortical atrophy, and cognitive impairment. These findings were observed in a select cohort of Hispanic and Latino adults. This research specifically addressed the underrepresentation of this population in dementia research, despite their higher prevalence of dementia and vascular disease. Brain magnetic resonance imaging was utilized to investigate these critical cerebrovascular markers.

Summary: This study successfully validated a deep learning-derived index for Aortic Stenosis continuum, demonstrating its longitudinal changes over time. The index’s prognostic association with progression to severe aortic stenosis was confirmed. Researchers retrospectively analyzed data from 2373 patients, encompassing 7371 transthoracic echocardiograms, to establish these findings. This provides a robust method for disease tracking in progressive aortic stenosis.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between high-density lipoprotein to low-density lipoprotein ratios and long-term clinical outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. The research successfully characterized the associations of these lipidemic profiles with functional dependence and mortality. Findings were derived from a multicenter prospective registry, providing real-world data on intracerebral hemorrhage outcomes. This addresses a knowledge gap regarding lipidemic profiles in intracerebral hemorrhage compared to ischemic stroke.
