POS-925 FACTORS PREDICTIVE OF ANTI-SPIKE ANTIBODIES TITERS AFTER COVID-19 VACCINATION IN HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS Open
Hemodialysis patients have a high prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection but they may have a weak response to COVID-19 vaccines. This study aims to evaluate factors predictive of their humoral response. This is a two-center observational study…

Outcomes With Deferred Versus Performed Revascularization of Coronary Lesions With Gray-Zone Fractional Flow Reserve Values Open
Background: Management of coronary lesions with fractional flow reserve values in the gray zone (0.75–0.80) remains controversial due to conflicting data on the performance versus deferral of revascularization. Methods: We performed a syst…

Impact of Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair on Left Ventricular Remodeling in Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: A Meta-Analysis Open
BackgroundSecondary mitral regurgitation (MR) arises from left ventricular (LV) dilatation and remodeling, and commonly is treated with transcatheter mitral valve repair. We examined the impact of MitraClip on reverse cardiac remodeling in…

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicts heart failure readmissions and outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement Open
NLR predicts all-cause mortality, MACE, and HF hospitalization 1 year after TAVR. NLR with TAVR risk score improved predictability for MACE. Further studies for prognostication using NLR are warranted.

A Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection in a Severely Symptomatic Patient, Is Surgery Always Recommended? Open
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is a rare cardiac anomaly occurring when a pulmonary vein drains into the right atrium, coronary sinus or a systemic vein creating a left-to-right shunt. Symptoms develop from right-sid…
