Predicting the future risk and outcomes of severe heart failure and coronary artery disease with machine learning in the UK Biobank Cohort.

Background: In order to seriously impact the global burden of heart failure (HF) and coronary artery disease (CAD), identifying at-risk individuals as early as possible is vital. Risk calculator tools in wide clinical use today are informed by traditional statistical methods that have historically yielded only modest prediction accuracy.

Methods: This study uses machine learning algorithms to generate predictions models for the development and progression of severe HF and CAD.

To analyze in-hospital mortality in children undergoing congenital heart interventions in the only public referral center in Amazonas, North Brazil, between 2014 and 2022. This retrospective cohort study included 1041 patients undergoing cardiac interventions for congenital heart disease, of whom 135 died during hospitalization. Records were reviewed to obtain demographic, clinical, and surgical data.

The purpose of this study is to identify 35-year trends in adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) heart transplant volume, transplant centers, patient characteristics, and longitudinal survival up to ten years. We performed a retrospective review of ACHD patients (≥18 years) who underwent heart transplantation (N = 2,297 transplants) between January 1, 1988, and December 31, 2022, using the United Network for Organ Sharing Database. Trends in transplant volume, transplant centers, patient characteristics, and longitudinal survival were analyzed.

Importance: Right anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (R-AAOCA) is a rare congenital condition increasingly diagnosed with the growing use of cardiac imaging. Due to dynamic compression of the anomalous vessel, invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) during a dobutamine-atropine volume challenge (FFR-dobutamine) is considered the reference standard. A reliable alternative method is needed to reduce extensive invasive testing, but it remains uncertain whether noninvasive imaging can accurately assess the hemodynamic relevance of R-AAOCA.

Background: Transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation (TPVI) has emerged as a viable alternative to surgical pulmonary valve replacement for patients with congenital heart disease and right ventricular outflow tract dysfunction. However, its adoption in low-resource settings has been limited.

Case Summary: We report the first successful TPVI procedures in Tanzania.
