Abstract Accurate and sensitive measurement techniques are a key issue in the quantification of microvascular endothelial dysfunction systemic sclerosis (SSc). Thermal hyperhemia comprises two separate mechanisms: an initial peak that is axon reflex mediated; sustained plateau phase nitric oxide dependent. The main objective our study was to test whether thermal patients with SSc differed from primary Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) healthy controls. In first study, we enrolled 20 suffering SSc,...

Clin Transplant 2011 DOI: 10.1111/j.1399‐0012.2011.01525.x. © John Wiley & Sons A/S. Abstract: (ECLS) represents an effective, emergent therapy for patients with end‐stage failure or cardiac arrest. However, ECLS is typically not used transplantation because of the limited duration ECLS. In France, priority...
Abstract Aims Heart transplantation (HT) can be proposed as a therapeutic strategy for patients with severe refractory electrical storm (ES). Data in the literature are scarce and based on case reports. We aimed at determining characteristics survival of transplanted ES. Methods results Patients registered HT waiting list during following days after ES eventually transplanted, from 2010 to 2021, were retrospectively included 11 French centres. The primary endpoint was in-hospital mortality....
The prognostic value of 'high dose' loop diuretics in advanced heart failure outpatients is unclear. We aimed to assess the prognosis associated with diuretic dose ambulatory patients awaiting transplantation (HT).
Objectives Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is frequently detected in lung and/or blood samples of patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP), although this co-detection not precisely understood. We aimed to determine whether PJP was more severe case CMV detection. Methods retrospectively included all a diagnosis between 2009 and 2020 our centre measure viral load bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). severity assessed by the requirement for intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Results The median age...
BackgroundPrediction of outcomes remains an unmet need in LVAD candidates. Development right heart failure portends excess mortality but imaging parameters ventricular systolic function have failed to demonstrate a prognostic role. By integrating pulmonary pressure, ventriculoarterial coupling could fill this gap.MethodsThe ASSIST-ICD registry was used test surrogate at implantation for the prediction all-cause mortality.ResultsThe ratio tricuspid annular plane excursion over estimated...
The value of Forrester's perfusion/congestion profiles assessed by invasive catheter evaluation in non-inotrope advanced heart failure patients listed for transplant (HT) is unclear. We aimed to assess the haemodynamic according predict events on HT waitlist.
Objectives. Thermal hyperaemia is impaired in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). The objective of these studies was to determine whether this consecutive skin fibrosis, microangiopathy or macroangiopathy. Methods. Using laser Doppler flowmetry, we first compared the thermal on third left finger pad and forearm 21 non-diffuse (SSc), comparison primary Raynaud's phenomenon healthy volunteers. Second, tested altered correlated digital pressure index at baseline, following challenge....
Postoperative pericardial effusion is frequent and can be complicated by cardiac tamponade. Although the different drainage techniques are well described in setting of medical effusion, there not a standard postoperative treatment. The aim this work was to assess feasibility effectiveness percutaneous drainage.This retrospective study involving 197 patients from 1990 2008. Drainage performed subxiphoid puncture (91.9%) or left parasternal (8.1%) between 3 690 days following procedure via...
Abstract OBJECTIVES Our goal was to provide a picture of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) activity in France between 2007 and 2016 based on the multicentric ASSIST-ICD registry. METHODS We retrospectively collected 136 variables including in-hospital data, follow-up survival rates adverse events from 671 LVAD recipients at 20 out 24 implant centres France. The average time 1.2 years (standard deviation: 1.4); total 807.5 patient-years. RESULTS included devices were HeartMate II®,...
Letermovir, an anti-cytomegalovirus (CMV) drug, is recommended as a prophylactic agent in patients at risk of CMV infection/reactivation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. We report the curative and pre-emptive use letermovir two heart transplant recipients. In one patient with ganciclovir-resistant CMV, was successfully used to treat colitis. second patient, therapy for reactivation, but did not prevent esophagitis. both cases, successful secondary prophylaxis. Curative...
Temporary circulatory support (TCS) as a bridge-to-left ventricular assist device (BTL) in cardiogenic shock patients has been increasing, but limited data exists on this BTL strategy. We aimed at analyzing the outcome of population compared with those without TCS time left (LVAD) surgery and identify predictors postoperative mortality specific population.A multicenter retrospective observational study conducted 19 centers from 2006 to 2016.Nineteen French centers.A total 329 LVAD...
