Leukocyte Filter Enhances Neutrophil Activation during Combined Aortic Valve and Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

The aim of this prospective, randomized study was to evaluate the impact of continuous leukocyte filtration on the perioperative expression of neutrophil adhesion molecules along with the markers of systemic inflammation during combined coronary artery revascularization and aortic valve surgery due to aortic stenosis.

Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Early and Midterm Outcomes After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (from a Multicenter Registry)

Several clinical and procedural factors have been identified as predictors of early and midterm events after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), but incidence and prognostic impact of diabetes mellitus (DM), especially insulin treated, on short- and midterm outcomes remain to be defined. All consecutive patients who underwent TAVI at our institutions were enrolled and stratified according to DM status.
