Syncope with QT‐interval prolongation and T‐wave inversion in anterior and inferior leads: Foreboder of a life‐threatening condition?

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
The patient’s ECG exhibited QT‐interval prolongation with T‐wave inversion in anterior and inferior leads that, together with CT‐pulmonary angiography findings, strongly suggested PE. This ECG pattern is crucial for diagnosing PE. Abstract Even though patients with pulmonary embolism usually present with respiratory distress and tachycardia, the ...

Microvolt T‐wave alternans in early repolarization syndrome associated with ventricular arrhythmias: A case report

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Microvolt T‐wave alternans (MTWA) is a marker for the development of ventricular arrhythmias (VA), but its role in early repolarization (ER) syndrome remains unknown. MTWA was detected in a 90‐second 6‐lead electrocardiogram from an ER syndrome patient. On average, MTWA was 50 μV, higher than what was observed on healthy subjects.

Preventive catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias in patients with end‐stage heart failure referred for heart transplantation evaluation: Rationale for and design of the CASTLE‐VT trial

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Aims Timely referrals for transplantation and left ventricular assist device (LVAD) play a key role in favourable outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure (HF). Cardiovascular mortality, driven by sudden cardiac death, is the main reason for dying while waiting for heart transplantation (HTx). The purpose of the Preventive Catheter Ablation for

The diagnostic role of T wave morphology biomarkers in congenital and acquired long QT syndrome: A systematic review

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Numerous T wave morphology biomarkers, which can supplement QTc assessment in long QT syndrome (LQTS), have been identified. Their diagnostic capabilities include differentiation of genotypes, identification of concealed LQTS, differentiating acquired LQTS from congenital LQTS; and determining multichannel versus hERG channel blockade.

Kidney status and events preceding death in heart failure: A real‐world nationwide study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Chronic kidney disease is a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients, affecting prognosis and mortality. This study investigates the relationship between kidney function and adverse kidney events preceding death in HF patients. Methods and results We analysed registry data of HF patients who died between 2014 and 2021, with at ...

Impact of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists on the risk of sudden cardiac death across cardio‐kidney‐metabolic diseases: A meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a prevalent cause of mortality among patients with cardio‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) diseases. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) reduce the risk of SCD in patients with left ventricular dysfunction, but it is unclear if similar effects are expected across different CKM risk populations irrespective of

Self‐limited familial focal epilepsy caused by ANK2 variants: A potentially under‐recognized condition

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ankyrin 2 (ANK2) gene encodes the ankyrin‐B protein (ANKB), which is involved in the organization and stability of membrane ion channels, transporters, and receptors in cardiomyocytes and neurons. Variants in ANK2 genes are initially reported in long QT syndrome and autism.
