Background: Brainstem cavernous malformations (BSCMs) are rare yet high-risk vascular lesions with a complex clinical course due to their eloquent location. Optimal treatment remains a topic of debate. This review aims to evaluate the outcomes of different management strategies for BSCMs, with a focus on rebleeding, functional recovery, and mortality.

The QT interval is a key indicator in assessing arrhythmia risk, evaluating drug safety, and supporting clinical diagnosis in cardiology. The QT interval is significantly influenced by heart rate so it must be accurately corrected to ensure reliable clinical interpretation. Conventional correction formulas, such as Bazett's formula, are widely utilized but often criticized for inaccuracies, either under- or overcorrecting QT intervals in different physiological conditions.

Background: Esophagectomy causes anatomical changes that can lead to rapid food transit and reactive hypoglycemia (RH). Patients are advised on eating patterns postesophagectomy to prevent RH, but its true incidence and the impact of dietary recommendations remain under-researched.
Materials And Methods: Individuals >12 months postesophagectomy were recruited from the National Centre for Oesophageal and Gastric Cancer at St James's Hospital in Dublin, Ireland.

Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) remains a prevalent and challenging complication in patients with heart failure (HF), associated with poor prognosis despite optimal guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and cardiac resynchronization therapy. Current American and European guidelines recommend GDMT as first-line therapy, with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) reserved for severe symptomatic SMR patients who remain refractory. However, both guidelines preceded the reporting of pivotal randomized controlled trials (RESHAPE-HF2, MATTERHORN, and EFFORT) and emerging evidence in new clinical scenarios.

Background: Repair strategies for pediatric vascular injuries must consider vascular growth and intervention durability. Endovascular interventions are increasingly utilized in pediatrics, particularly in unstable patients or for injuries in surgically morbid regions. This study describes a single-center experience with endovascular stenting in adolescent pediatric trauma.
