Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves outcomes in heart failure, but prior interventions like percutaneous mitral annuloplasty may hinder lead placement. We present a 70-year-old male with ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe functional mitral regurgitation who previously received a Carillon device. Due to coronary sinus inaccessibility, left bundle branch area pacing optimized cardiac resynchronization therapy (LOT-CRT) was performed.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) research is hindered by limited comprehensive analyses of plasma proteome across disease subtypes. Here, we systematically investigated the associations between plasma proteins and cardiovascular outcomes in 53,026 UK Biobank participants over a 14-year follow-up. Association analyses identified 3,089 significant associations involving 892 unique protein analytes across 13 CVD outcomes.

Objectives: The risk of major venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients with COVID-19 is high but varies with disease severity. Estimate the incidence of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in critically ill hospitalized patients with COVID-19, validate the Wells score for DVT diagnosis, and determine patients' prognosis.
Methods: This was an observational follow-up study in the context of the diagnosis and prognosis of DVT.
