Cardiac manifestations of sarcoidosis
Introduction and purpose: Sarcoidosis is a chronic, multi-system inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. Due to the varied clinical picture of patients, the diagnosis of the disease is complicated, especially when the heart is affected.The aim of this

Fragmented ECG as a risk marker in cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Various noninvasive tests for risk stratification of sudden cardiac death (SCD) were studied, mostly in the context of structural heart disease such as coronary artery disease (CAD), cardiomyopathy and heart failure but have low positive predictive value

In cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) patients, the benefit of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) remains unclear. We sought to assess the short‐term and long‐term effects of CRT in CS patients with a range of left ventricular (LV) ejection fractions (LVEFs).

Treatment of cardiomyopathy with PAP therapy in a patient with severe obstructive sleep apnea. [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea is common in patients with heart failure. This case illustrates that treatment with PAP therapy can improve cardiac function in patients with both conditions.

Cardiac Sarcoidosis: A Comprehensive Clinical Review
Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory multisystemic disease of unknown etiology characterized by the formation of non-caseating granulomas. Sarcoidosis can affect any organ, predominantly the lungs, lymphatic system, skin and eyes.

Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

Isolated cardiac sarcoidosis: a case report
Introduction. Ventricular arrhythmias are a risk factor for sudden cardiac death. Abnormalities of cardiac rhythm and conduction may be the only subjective manifestation of isolated cardiac sarcoidosis, which occurs in 25% of the total number of patients

Objective: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can manifest with different clinical signs and has a poor prognosis, but the heart is rarely affected alone. We aim to evaluate the arrhythmogenic effects of sarcoidosis by using electrocardiography (ECG) in patients
