    Abstract Simple whole blood analysis can effectively demonstrate complex changes in inflammatory responses to cardiovascular disorders in adults and enable the prediction of adverse outcomes or diminished survival. Such inflammatory activation has also been detected in the pediatric population. Blood analysis results are repeatable and readily available, which gives the method an advantage over others. Inflammatory phenomena such as a high leukocyte count and an increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are related to a poor prognosis of advanced heart defects and worse outcomes after pediatric cardiac surgery in the advanced stages of the disease. Surgery-associated inflammation exacerbates these diseases, and the inflammatory response may further complicate the postoperative period. Simple blood cell counts and indices may be beneficial for evaluating cardiac surgery outcomes and cardiovascular disorder prognosis in infants and children. This review summarizes current knowledge on inflammatory markers in pediatric cardiovascular diseases and surgery.

    Abstract (1) Background: Estimates suggest that up to 10% of global annual cardiovascular deaths could be related to environmental factors. Not only air pollution components, but also noise exposure and climate changes, are highlighted as nontraditional causes of cardiovascular morbidity. The aim of this study was to identify possible urbanization risk factors for the progression of coronary artery disease in a group of patients with chronic coronary syndrome. (2) Method: There were 77 patients (50 (65%) males and 27 (35%) females) with a median age of 70 (60-74) years who underwent repetitive angiography due to chronic coronary syndrome between 2018 and 2022. The Gensini score was calculated for assessment of coronary artery disease advancement. Environmental factors including neighboring developments were taken into account in this analysis, including housing, commercial, and industrial developments within 300, 500, and 700 m distances (buffer) from the place of habitation. (3) Results: The multivariable analysis results for prediction of Gensini score progression in relation to 700 m buffer urbanization pointed out the significance of hyperlipidemia (OR: 4.24, 95% CI 1.34-13.39,

    Abstract Background: The coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of morbidity that is characterized by broad spectrum of symptoms. Up to 30% of performed angiographies reveal normal coronary arteries. The aim of the study was to find simple predictor for significant epicardial artery stenosis among patients with chronic coronary syndrome.
    Methods: There were 187 patients (131 (709%) men and 56 (30%) women) in the median (Q1-Q3) age of 67 [58-72] presenting with stable CAD symptoms enrolled into the present retrospective analysis. The demographical, clinical and laboratory characteristics between patients with normal and significant coronary artery stenosis were compared.
    Results: The multivariable analysis revealed coexistence of hypercholesterolemia as significant differentiation factor (odds ratio [OR]: 4.38, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.78-10.80, p = 0.001) for significant CAD and inverse relation to serum high density lipoprotein (OR: 0.19, 95% CI: 0.05-0.72, p = 0.015) and relation to creatinine concentration (OR: 1.03, 95% CI: 1.00-1.05, p = 0.012). Among whole peripheral blood count analysis, the significant relation was noticed to be hemoglobin concentration (OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 1.10-1.18, p = 0.022) and monocyte count (OR: 32.3, 95% CI: 1.09-653.6, p = 0.017). Receiver operator curve revealed (AUC: 0.641, p = 0.001) with the optimal cut-off value above 0.45 K/uL for monocyte, yelding sensitivity of 81.82% and specificity of 58.06%.
    Conclusions: The peripheral monocyte count above 0.45 k/uL may be considered as a predictor of significant coronary artery disease in symptomatic patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

    Abstract Background: Currently, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality world-wide. Inflammatory processes are postulated to be a major driving force for coronary plaque initiation and progression and can be evaluated by simple inflammatory markers from whole blood count analysis. Among hematological indexes, systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is defined as a quotient of neutrophils and monocytes, divided by lymphocyte count. The aim of the present retrospective analysis was to present the predictive role of SIRI for coronary artery disease (CAD) occurrence.
    Methods: There were 256 patients (174 [68%] men and 82 [32%] women) in the median (Q1-Q3) age of 67 (58-72) years enrolled into retrospective analysis due to angina pectoris equivalent symptoms. A model for predicting CAD was created based on demographic data and blood cell parameters reflecting an inflammatory response.
    Results: In patients with single/complex coronary disease the logistic regression multivariable analysis revealed predictive value of male gender (odds ratio [OR]: 3.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38-11.42, p = 0.010), age (OR: 5.57, 95% CI: 0.83-0.98, p = 0.001), body mass index (OR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.81-0.98, p = 0.012), and smoking (OR: 3.66, 95% CI: 1.71-18.22, p = 0.004). Among laboratory parameters, SIRI (OR: 5.52, 95% CI: 1.89-16.15, p = 0.029) and red blood cell distribution width (OR: 3.66, 95% CI: 1.67-8.04, p = 0.001) were found significant.
    Conclusions: Systemic inflammatory response index, a simple hematological index, may be helpful in patients with angina equivalent symptoms to diagnose CAD. Patients presenting with SIRI above 1.22 (area under the curve: 0.725, p < 0.001) have a higher probability of single and complex coronary disease.

    Abstract Introduction: The ministernotomy approach with sutureless aortic bioprosthesis may provide an attractive and safe option for aortic valve disease patients.
    Aim: To assess the early and mid-term outcomes of minimally invasive aortic valve replacement (miniAVR) with sutureless vs. standard prostheses.
    Material and methods: The study involved 76 consecutive patients (51 males and 25 females) with mean age of 63.2 years who were treated with miniAVR between 2015 and 2022. They were divided into 2 subgroups: group I (
    Results: No conversion to complete sternotomy was necessary. The median (minimum; maximum) aorta cross clamping and cardio-pulmonary bypass times were 49 (27; 84) and 70 (40; 188) minutes in group I whereas 69 (50; 103) and 95 (69; 170) minutes in group II, respectively (
    Conclusions: Intraoperative advantages of miniAVR procedures for aortic valve patients with sutureless bioprostheses do not translate directly into improved early and middle-term outcomes.
