Mitral valve and left ventricular features in malignant mitral valve prolapse. [PDF]
Objective: Mitral valve prolapse is a benign condition, however with occasional reports of sudden cardiac death or out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the absence of severe mitral regurgitation or coronary artery disease, suggesting the existence of a ...

ABSTRACT Background Angulation of virtual basal ring (VBR), also known as aortic annulus, in relation to sino‐tubular junction (STJ) may lead to greater exposure of implanted stent to the conduction system, consequently increasing the risk of left bundle branch block (LBBB).

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) has emerged as a valuable treatment for severe pulmonary regurgitation (PR). The Salus valve (Balance Medical Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China) represents a novel self‐expanding valve stent designed for deployment through a transthoracic approach with a small subxiphoid incision ...

Fragmented QRS complex as a predictor of exercise-related sudden cardiac death [PDF]
Introduction: Little is known about the association between electrocardiographic abnormalities and exercise-related sudden cardiac death.Therefore, our aim was to identify possible electrocardiographic findings related to exercise-induced sudden cardiac ...

Emergent Cardiac Surgery After Transcatheter Structural Heart Procedures: Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Transcatheter structural heart procedures have become standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risk. Over time, these procedures have significantly increased worldwide, accompanied by a concomitant reduction of major complications, including those requiring emergent cardiac surgery (ECS).

Entropy of seismic electric signals: Analysis in natural time under time-reversal [PDF]
Electric signals have been recently recorded at the Earth's surface with amplitudes appreciably larger than those hitherto reported. Their entropy in natural time is smaller than that, $S_u$, of a ``uniform'' distribution. The same holds for their entropy upon time-reversal. This behavior, as supported by numerical simulations in fBm time series and in

From Allergy to Angina: A Unique Presentation of Kounis Syndrome
ABSTRACT Kounis syndrome (KS) is a rare condition characterized by acute coronary syndrome (ACS) triggered by an allergic reaction. This report presents a case of high‐risk ACS associated with a food allergy. A 53‐year‐old male with no prior medical history presented to the emergency department with itching, facial swelling, chest tightness, shortness ...

Sudden Cardiac Death and Copy Number Variants: What Do We Know after 10 Years of Genetic Analysis? [PDF]
Over the last ten years, analysis of copy number variants has increasingly been applied to the study of arrhythmogenic pathologies associated with sudden death, mainly due to significant advances in the field of massive genetic sequencing.

The local health impacts of natural resource booms
Abstract This paper uses novel micro‐data on natural resources and administrative health data in Brazil to study how economic booms in minerals affect health at birth. By implementing a reduced‐form estimation of shift‐share research designs, the identification strategy relies on the exogeneity of global commodity prices to municipality‐specific health

Genetic Aspects of Hereditary Arrhythmogenic Syndromes in Children and Adults
Recent research has revealed the genetic etiology of a number of heart diseases that cause sudden cardiac death. Lethal channelopathies are of great importance among the genetically determined heart diseases. Their basic characteristics are unpredictable
