Major aortopulmonary collateral artery coiling in tetralogy of Fallot: A critical intervention to modulate pulmonary circulation and enable effective surgical repair
Major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs) are nonregressed embryological connections present in patients with cardiac anomaly with compromised antegrade pulmonary flow such as tetralogy of Fallot. Depending on their angioarchitecture, they may be essential or nonessential and can affect the…

The role of optical coherence tomography in detecting and correcting stent malapposition during primary percutaneous coronary intervention: A case series and review of current practice
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the gold standard for treating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Stent malapposition, a complication more common in AMI due to plaque disruption and thrombus burden, increases the risks of stent thrombosis and restenosis. Angiography often misses…

Correlation of serum NT-proBNP levels with metabolic and cardiovascular parameters in adults with metabolic syndrome: A hospital-based cross-sectional study
Context: A major global health concern, metabolic syndrome (MetS) is linked to an increased risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and early death. In high-risk groups, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) has become a viable biomarker for subclinical cardiac dysfunction. Aim: To…
