Age‐related differences in cardiogenic shock secondary to Takotsubo syndrome
In this multicenter study of 408 patients with cardiogenic shock secondary to Takotsubo syndrome (CS‐TTS), age emerged as a major determinant of clinical profile and prognosis, along with SCAI shock stage. Younger patients presented with more atypical features and received more intensive support but had better short‐ and long‐term outcomes.

Mental stress as a trigger of cardiovascular events: A narrative review
Stress stimulates the prefrontal cortex that in turns activates the limbic system with subsequent activation of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system then stimulates the heart, vessels, endocrine and immune systems with a bidirectional communication. These mechanisms increase heart rate and blood pressure, promote vasoconstriction,

Non‐endocardial radiofrequency ablation of PVCs is a safe and effective procedure, even with the use of high power and/or long duration RF application. Clinicians should consider this approach in case of LV summit and/or ASV PVCs, although long‐term follow‐up is still characterized by a relatively high recurrence rate.
