2 JCS/JSCVS/JCC/CVIT 2023 Guideline Focused Update on Indication and Operation of PCPS/ECMO/IMPELLA individual facilities.Therefore, in this Focus Update, specific classes or levels evidence are not strictly mandatory, but rather they presented as expert consensus.However, we strongly hope that will (1) serve a guideline for the standardization PCPS, ECMO, IMPELLA therapy within Japan, (2) be widely used by various healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, clinical engineers,...

Background: The optimal revascularization strategy for unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease in the era of drug-eluting stents (DES) has become more controversial between bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous intervention (PCI). Methods Results: Since April 2004, 89 patients underwent CABG, including 82 (92.1%) off-pump procedures 63 PCI with DES ULMCA disease. Major adverse cardiac cerebrovascular events (MACCE: death, acute myocardial infarction, stroke repeat...
ObjectivesWe hypothesized that a large number of patients with diabetic retinopathy who could benefit greatly from early coronary artery bypass grafting would not be identified.MethodsPatients receiving ophthalmologic care as outpatients in our hospital whom disease was previously suspected were referred randomly to the retinocoronary clinic and asked participate diagnostic tests, including an exercise treadmill test thallium scintigraphy or computed tomography. Patients had type 1 diabetes...
The presence of retinopathy is a predictor mortality following coronary revascularization in diabetics. We studied whether by coronary-artery-bypass surgery (CABG), as compared with percutaneous intervention (PCI), influences the prognosis diabetics retinopathy.Between April 1996 and March 2004, 1489 patients underwent an initial procedure. Among these total 319 retinal examination prior to revascularization. These were classified according they had undergone CABG, either initially or after...
The long-term outcomes of complete revascularization (CR) in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remain unclear.
The prognostic value of identifying the retinal status diabetic patients undergoing coronary implantation drug-eluting stents is unknown.We evaluated outcomes 318 consecutive sirolimus-eluting for artery disease. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to and status: without retinopathy (43 patients); with nonproliferative (34); proliferative (37); unknown (30); nondiabetic (174).During a mean follow-up 385 days, 64 had target-vessel failure (defined as composite death from cardiac...
We experienced a case in which live 3D transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was found much more valuable than 2D TEE assessing mitral lesions circumferential direction and making surgical plans for valve prolapse.
Introduction & Objective: In the midst of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, we reported a significant increase homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values among 14-15 years old students. this study, conducted prolonged surveys incorporating data until 2023. Methods: The study included 430 students aged who underwent health examinations between 2015 2023 (236 males, 194 females). Using its data, HOMA-IR, BMI, obesity levels were calculated, temporal changes...
Introduction & Objective: The objective of this study is to elucidate the prescription order GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and predictors affecting their selection in Japanese type 2 diabetes (T2D) using real-world data. Methods: subjects were extracted from individuals with T2D attending our 4 hospitals (approximately 10,000/month outpatient attendance) newly prescribed GLP-1RA between 2016 2019, excluding those initiated during hospitalization. Using clinical information databases,...
Time in Tight Range (TITR), defined as the percentage of time within glucose range 70 to 140 mg/dL, is anticipated be challenging maintain without causing hypoglycemia, especially individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D). This study aimed investigate TITR target value T1D on multiple daily injections (MDI).

Intraoperative assessment of a repaired mitral valve is paramount importance for reparative surgery. From September 2010 through November 2012, 20 consecutive patients underwent plasty regurgitation. The who surgery after June 2012 received the repair with heart beating (HB group, n = 10), and operation before May were assessed only under cardioplegic arrest (non-HB 10). Intermittent cold retrograde blood cardioplegia was used in all patients. In HB-group, completion procedures, pump without...
