Mashup Score: 5
Aortic valve prolapse is frequently associated with juxta-arterial ventricular septal defect. The significance of its association with other outlet types of ventricular septal defect, however, remains unclear.

Mashup Score: 13The Society of Thoracic Surgeons 2023 Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Surgical Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation - 3 month(s) ago
The Society of Thoracic Surgeons 2023 clinical practice guidelines for the surgical management of atrial fibrillation incorporate the most recent evidence for surgical ablation and left atrial appendage occlusion in different clinical scenarios. Substantial new evidence regarding the risks and benefits of surgical left atrial appendage occlusion and the long-term benefits of surgical ablation has been produced in the last five years.In comparison to the 2017 clinical practice guideline, the current update has an emphasis on surgical ablation in first-time, non-emergent cardiac surgery and its long-term benefits, an extension of the recommendation to perform surgical ablation in all patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing first-time, non-emergent cardiac surgery and a new class I recommendation for left atrial appendage occlusion in all patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing first-time, non-emergent cardiac surgery.

Mashup Score: 60Multi-Arterial versus Single-Arterial Coronary Surgery: Ten Year Follow-up of One Million Patients - 3 month(s) ago
While many options exist for multivessel coronary revascularization, controversy persists over whether multi-arterial grafting (MAG) confers a survival advantage over single arterial grafting (SAG) and saphenous vein in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We sought to compare longitudinal survival between patients undergoing MAG vs. SAG.

Mashup Score: 13
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs have been shown to lessen surgical insult, promote recovery, and improve postoperative clinical outcomes across a number of specialty operations. A core tenet of ERAS involves the provision of protocolized evidence-based perioperative interventions. Given both the growing enthusiasm for applying ERAS principles to cardiac surgery and the broad scope of relevant interventions, an international, multidisciplinary expert panel was assembled to derive a list of potential program elements, review the literature, and provide a statement regarding clinical practice for each topic area.

Mashup Score: 6Neoadjuvant versus Adjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy for Stage II-IIIB Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer - 3 month(s) ago
In patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), recent trials demonstrate survival benefit of chemoimmunotherapy over chemotherapy alone in both the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. To date, there is no direct comparison between neoadjuvant and adjuvant protocols. We compared neoadjuvant versus adjuvant chemoimmunotherapy for resectable Stage II-IIIB NSCLC.

Lower institutional volume has been associated with inferior pediatric cardiac surgery outcomes. This study explored the variation in mortality rates among low-, mid-, and high-volume hospitals performing pediatric cardiac surgery in the United States.

The management of aortic stenosis (AS) has evolved to stratification by age as reflected in recent societal guidelines. We evaluated age-stratified surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) trends and outcomes in patients with bicuspid (BAV) or tricuspid (TAV) aortic valves from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Adult Cardiac Surgery Database.
