FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Abstract Introduction Unplanned hospital readmissions are associated with higher morbidity, mortality, and financial burden. This study evaluated the association between the use of remote biometric sensing devices (RBS) and all‐cause readmission and mortality rates among adult patients discharged from the hospital.
