Predicting Fluid Responsiveness in Mechanically Ventilated Adults: An Umbrella Review of Diagnostic Accuracy Meta-Analyses

Massimo Meco, Enrico Giustiniano, Fulvio Nisi, P Zulli et autres

BACKGROUND: Dynamic indices and maneuvers are widely used to predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients, yet their relative performance remains uncertain. METHODS: We conducted an umbrella review of diagnostic accuracy meta-analyses published up to August 2025. Eligible reviews evaluated pulse pressure …

MAPK, PI3K/Akt Pathways, and GSK-3β Activity in Severe Acute Heart Failure in Intensive Care Patients: An Updated Review

Massimo Meco, Enrico Giustiniano, Fulvio Nisi, P Zulli et autres

Acute heart failure (AHF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by the sudden onset or rapid worsening of heart failure signs and symptoms, frequently triggered by myocardial ischemia, pressure overload, or cardiotoxic injury. A central component of its pathophysiology is the activation of …

P108 FIVE YEARS RESULTS OF BIORESORBABLE VASCULAR SCAFFOLDS VERSUS CONVENTIONAL DRUG–ELUTING STENTS. A META–ANALYSIS OF RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS

Massimo Meco, B. Guido, Farhat Fouladvand, Emiliano Agosteo

Abstract Background Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) were designed to reduce the rate of late adverse events observed in conventional drug–eluting stents (DES) by dissolving once they have restored lasting patency. Objectives Compare the safety and efficacy after five years, of BVS versus …

P386 ATRIAL FIBRILLATION ABLATION IN PATIENTS WITH SEVERELY DEPRESSED EJECTION FRACTION. META–ANALYSIS OF RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIALS

Massimo Meco, G. Belli, Farhat Fouladvand, Emiliano Agosteo

Abstract Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) and severely depressed ejection fraction (SDEF) are two conditions that often coexist. AF increases overall mortality in these patients. The current available guidelines do not provide a clear consensus regarding the best management approach. We conducted this …

The Cardiac Power Index during Abdominal Open Aortic Surgery: Intraoperative Insights into the Cardiac Performance—A Retrospective Observational Analysis

Fulvio Nisi, Enrico Giustiniano, Massimo Meco, Luca Pugliese et autres

Background: The Cardiac Power Index (CPI) measures the rate of energy output generated by the heart and correlates this with in-hospital mortality due to cardiogenic shock. In open aortic surgery, both aortic clamping and unclamping expose the heart to abrupt variations of …

Echocardiography in Prone Positioned Critically Ill Patients: A Wealth of Information from a Single View

Enrico Giustiniano, Sergio Palma, Massimo Meco, Umberto Ripani et autres

In critically ill patients, standard transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) generally does not facilitate good image quality during mechanical ventilation. We propose a prone-TTE in prone positioned patients, which allows clinicians to obtain a complete apical four-chamber (A-4-C) view. A basic cardiac assessment can …
