Mashup Score: 1Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy: The Potentially Curative Treatment of Choice for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension - 4 day(s) ago
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a consequence of unresolved organized thromboembolic obstruction of the pulmonary arteries, which can cause pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular failure. Owing to its subtle signs, determining its exact incidence and prevalence is challenging. Furthermore, CTEPH may also present without any prior venous thromboembolic history, contributing to underdiagnosis and undertreatment. Diagnosis requires a high degree of suspicion and is ruled out by a normal ventilation/perfusion ratio scintigraphy.

Mashup Score: 0Total Arterial Multivessel Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: 5-Year Outcomes - 5 day(s) ago
Total arterial revascularization is associated with superior outcomes to conventional coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery performed with the left internal thoracic artery (ITA) and veins. It is often performed with bilateral ITAs that increase risk of sternal wound infection. Minimally invasive multivessel CABG through a left anterior minithoracotomy eliminates sternal wound complications. However, being performed only in a few specialized centers, there is a paucity in follow-up outcome data.

Mashup Score: 25
The contemporary management and resectability of locally advanced lung cancer are undergoing significant changes as new data emerge regarding immunotherapy and targeted treatments. The objective of this document is to review the literature and present consensus among a group of multidisciplinary experts to guide the determination of resectability and management of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the context of contemporary evidence.

Mashup Score: 41Family Planning in Cardiothoracic Surgery: A Comparison Between Male and Female Surgeons - 2 month(s) ago
Although work-family balance impacts specialty selection for medical students of both sexes, pregnancy and childbearing experiences are unique to women. Cardiothoracic surgery, with low female representation, must prioritize these issues to support women entering the field. This study compared family planning experiences between male and female cardiothoracic surgeons.

Mashup Score: 11Operating Room Extubation for Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A National Society of Thoracic Surgeons Database Analysis - 3 month(s) ago
The utility of operating room extubation (ORE) after cardiac surgery over fast-track extubation (FTE) within 6 hours remains contested. We hypothesized ORE would be associated with equivalent rates of morbidity and mortality, relative to FTE.
