Lifestyle modification in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, phenotypes and ablation outcomes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and healthcare utilization. Catheter ablation is increasingly used as a rhythm‐control intervention for patients with symptomatic paroxysmal and persistent AF, yet recurrence rates remain suboptimal.

Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.

Pre‐Infection COVID‐19 Vaccination and Long‐Term Cardiovascular Outcomes in Adults Without Preexisting Cardiovascular Disease: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Long‐term cardiovascular complications after COVID‐19 are increasingly recognized, yet the protective effect of pre‐infection vaccination in individuals without prior cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear. This study examined the association between COVID‐19 vaccination and major cardiovascular and related outcomes up to 3 ...

Atrial High‐Rate Episodes Mirror Atrial Fibrillation in Stroke Prediction: Evidence From an Indian Prospective Cohort

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
This prospective matched cohort study, which generates hypotheses, finds that device‐detected AF lasting under 24 h is linked to a notably increased risk of stroke/TIA and progression to clinical AF among Indian patients. ABSTRACT Aims To assess the risk of stroke/TIA and progression to atrial fibrillation (AF) in Indian patients with device‐detected ...

Risk Stratification in Cardiovascular Medicine for Prognostic Assessment and Therapeutic Decision‐Making: From Atrial Fibrillation to the Broader Disease Spectrum

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
Risk stratification using validated scoring systems plays a significant role in contemporary cardiovascular medicine not only for prognostic assessment but also for treatment optimization, resource allocation, and shared decision‐making. Beyond accurate prognostication, whether the use of a risk score can aid clinical decision‐making and improve ...

Impact of Gentamicin‐Impregnated Collagen Sponge on the Incidence of Access Related Infections After Full‐Support Microaxial Flow Pump Therapy

Artificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 1153-1163, August 2026.
Local application of gentamicin for wound closure after full‐support microaxial flow pump therapy. ABSTRACT Background Surgically implanted microaxial flow pumps (mAFP) are increasingly used for cardiogenic shock treatment. Standard mAFP explantation is performed bedside with a shortening of the vascular prosthesis, which may represent a potential ...
