Article Abstract
The Ross procedure is an excellent operation to treat children and adults with aortic valve disease. Compared to prosthetic aortic valve replacement, it provides important clinical benefits in terms of survival, hemodynamics, freedom from valve-related complications, and durability, especially in women of childbearing age. However, the Ross procedure is a longer and technically more challenging operation. As a result, the choice of procedure should be driven by patient anatomy and clinical characteristics. This highlights the importance of concentrating care in Ross reference centers where surgical expertise and experience are present to ensure patient safety and long-term effectiveness of the operation. This manuscript reviews the major and relative contraindications to the Ross procedure.

Predicting the future risk and outcomes of severe heart failure and coronary artery disease with machine learning in the UK Biobank Cohort.
PLoS One
September 2025
Department of Medicine, The Red Rogers Centre for Heart Research, Peter Munk Cardiac Centre, University Health Network, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
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.
Intraoperative Cell Salvage for Revision Hip Arthroplasty: A 24-Year Study of Transfusion Requirements.

Exeter Hip Unit, Princess Elizabeth Orthopaedic Centre, Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Barrack Road, Exeter, UK.
Background: Revision hip arthroplasty is associated with significant blood loss and a subsequent need for blood transfusion. Intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) is a method of recovering a patient's blood for autologous transfusion. This potentially reduces the need for allogenic blood transfusion (ABT), thus avoiding associated risk and expense.

Evaluating the Implementation of Online Postal Self-Sampling for Sexually Transmitted Infections in England: Multisite Qualitative Study.
J Med Internet Res
September 2025
University College London, London, United Kingdom.
Background: Online postal self-sampling (OPSS) allows service users to screen for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) by ordering a self-sampling kit online, taking their own samples, returning them to a laboratory for testing, and receiving their results remotely. OPSS availability and use has increased in both the United Kingdom and globally the past decade but has been adopted in different regions of England at different times, with different models of delivery. It is not known why certain models were decided on or how implementation strategies have influenced outcomes, including the sustainability of OPSS in sexual health service delivery.
