Accuracy of prediction of infarct-related arrhythmic circuits from image-based models reconstructed from low and high resolution MRI. [PDF]
Identification of optimal ablation sites in hearts with infarct-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) remains difficult to achieve with the current catheter-based mapping techniques.

G790del mutation in DSC2 alone is insufficient to develop the pathogenesis of ARVC in a mouse model
Background: Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited heart disease that causes heart failure and/or sudden cardiac death.

Sustained Idiopathic Outflow Tract Ventricular Tachycardia: Clinical Evidence for RVOT Predominance
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic outflow tract premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are most commonly localized in the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). The clinical significance of sustained outflow tract ventricular tachycardia (OT‐VT) regarding any predominance to one specific anatomic area remains uncertain.

A global perspective of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a progressive inherited heart disease characterized by ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death especially in the young. ARVC has been traditionally associated with the Mediterranean basin,

Stimulus‐independent DF mapping integrates intracardiac signals with 3D anatomy to visualize high‐DF activity, with regions derived from SmartTouch and Pentaray catheters showing spatial correspondence with operator‐defined ablation sites. Quantitative analysis demonstrates higher proximity scores at ablation sites, low projection error, and good ...

Fatty images of the heart: spectrum of normal and pathological findings at computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. [PDF]
Ectopic cardiac fatty images are not rarely detected incidentally at computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance, either in exams focused on the heart as in general thoracic imaging evaluations.

Right ventricular assessment of the adolescent footballer’s heart
Introduction Athletic training can result in electrical and structural changes of the right ventricle that may mimic phenotypical features of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), such as T-wave inversion and right heart dilatation.

Impact of Dental Status on Heart Transplantation Outcomes
ABSTRACT Objective Oral infections and poor dental health may contribute to systemic complications after heart transplantation, yet data on their impact is limited. In the absence of standardized dental guidelines for transplant candidates, this study evaluated preoperative dental status and its association with post‐transplant outcomes.

Abnormal ECG Findings in Athletes: Clinical Evaluation and Considerations. [PDF]
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Pre-participation cardiovascular evaluation with electrocardiography is normal practice for most sporting bodies. Awareness about sudden cardiac death in athletes and recognizing how screening can help identify vulnerable athletes have
