Article Abstract
is usually a commensal of the oropharynx but can occasionally cause invasive disease. Herein, we report a rare case of bacteremia in a female with a 7-year history of aortic valve replacement (AVR), who presented with persistent fever but no respiratory symptoms or valvular vegetations. Blood cultures yielded , identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and confirmed via 16S rRNA sequencing. Appropriate antibiotic therapy with ticarcillin-clavulanate led to a significant clinical improvement. To gain insight into the pathogenicity and resistome of this strain, whole-genome sequencing of junzhu_1 was performed using the Illumina NovaSeq platform. The resistome of the strain consists of three antimicrobial resistance genes: , and . Virulence gene analysis revealed that the pathogenicity of was associated with / (, and . This case underscores the potential of to act as an opportunistic pathogen in bloodstream infections (BSIs).

Background: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a cornerstone in the management of aortic valve disease. However, delayed complications after hospital discharge and readmission remain in an issue following TAVR. We aimed to evaluate the impact of remote monitoring systems on clinical outcomes after TAVR.

Introduction And Objectives: This report presents the 2024 activity data from the Interventional Cardiology Association of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (ACI-SEC).
Methods: All interventional cardiology laboratories in Spain were invited to complete an online survey. Data analysis was conducted by an external company and then reviewed and presented by the ACI-SEC board.
Unravelling the "diabetes discrepancy": The presence of chronic complications is a hallmark of worse short-term outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus after transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Background: In transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), there is a notable "diabetes discrepancy", where worse/better/similar outcomes were all found for patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Such divergent findings pose a challenge for clinicians to accurately assess the risks for DM patients undergoing TAVR. We hypothesized the presence of chronic complications could be linked to worse post-TAVR outcomes in DM patients.
