ABSTRACT Background Unexplained syncope and palpitations are common chief complaints in the outpatient department of cardiology. Their sporadic and unpredictable poses significant diagnostic challenges. Implantable cardiac monitors (ICMs) can monitor arrhythmia events efficiently, and can overcome the shortcomings of traditional electrocardiogram (ECG)

Utilization and Prognosis of Cardiac Device Implantation in AL Versus ATTR Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiac amyloidosis can cause congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, and heart blocks, which frequently require cardiac device implantation (CDI). However, the differences between light chain (AL) amyloidosis and transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis CDI requirements are unknown. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted using the

QT Interval Evaluation in Right Ventricular Pacing: Validation of a Novel Formula
Abstract Background QT interval measurement in the presence of right ventricular pacing (RVP) represents a clinical challenge. We therefore aimed to derive and validate a formula for QT estimation during RVP in a large cohort of pacemaker patients. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 100 patients in a derivation cohort and 487 in a validation

ABSTRACT Radiation therapy (RT) has emerged as a promising non‐surgical approach for treating canine adrenal tumours. This multi‐institutional, retrospective study describes clinical outcomes for 21 dogs having been prescribed a course of hypofractionated image‐guided intensity‐modulated RT (IMRT) entailing delivery of 25–35 Gy total in 5 fractions ...
