Beta Blocker Toxicity at Therapeutic Doses: A Look Into Carvedilol Use in the Elderly
ABSTRACT Beta‐blocker toxicity does not occur only in overdose situations. In vulnerable populations such as children and the elderly, therapeutic doses may produce cumulative toxic effects similar to those seen in acute overdose. These patients require monitoring that extends beyond basic laboratory investigations to preempt cumulative toxicity.

An integrative conceptual framework linking the five principal domains addressed in this review. Beginning at the molecular level, loss‐of‐function mutations in KCNQ1 and KCNH2 reduce outward repolarizing currents (IKs and IKr), while gain‐of‐function SCN5A mutations augment late inward sodium current (INa), establishing the genetic substrate for ...

ABSTRACT Andersen–Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare, hereditary channelopathy characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and sometimes developmental anomalies. No association with hematologic malignancies has previously been reported. We describe the case of a 27‐year‐old man with genetically confirmed Type 1 ATS who developed T‐cell acute ...

Efficacy and safety of a fixed low‐power, long‐duration radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmias originating from the left ventricular summit. ABSTRACT Background Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of ventricular arrhythmias originating from the left ventricular summit (LVS‐VAs) remains challenging.

Autonomic dysfunction in sleep apnea shows diurnal variation, with stronger associations between SDB severity and HRV during wakefulness than sleep. CPAP therapy induces complex, state‐dependent changes in HRV, suggesting that daytime autonomic alterations may better reflect sustained cardiovascular risk in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Patients aged ≥ 80 years with atrial fibrillation underwent catheter ablation. At 2 years, the recurrence‐free survival rate was 85.8% in paroxysmal AF and 63.6% in persistent AF (p = 0.024), and periprocedural complications occurred in 12.0%, including severe complications in 3.3%.

Attending EPs performed ablation with shorter ILT, which likely contributed to more efficient procedures and reduced overall ablation time. ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is a cornerstone of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Unlike balloon‐based or pulsed field ablation, radiofrequency ablation requires precise catheter control ...
