Cardiac Resynchronization as an Enabler of ARNI Efficacy: Insights From a Real‐World Cohort

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
CRT provides the mechanical substrate that enables sacubitril/valsartan to maximize reverse remodeling. In this real‐world cohort, ARNI therapy was associated with greater improvement in left ventricular function and fewer clinically validated device‐detected HF events, particularly among CRT responders, supporting a synergistic interaction between ...

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in a Patient with Total Correction of Tetralogy of Fallot and Right Ventricular Lead Dysfunction

open access: yesActa Medica Bulgarica
Adults with congenital heart lesions constitute a rapidly growing group of patients with cardiovascular disease, with patients with surgically corrected Tetralogy of Fallot forming one of the most complex groups in terms of long-term therapeutic ...

Totally Thoracoscopic Atrial Fibrillation Ablation With the Gemini S Bipolar Clamp: A Single‐Center Descriptive Cohort Study of 1‐Year Rhythm, Safety, and Quality‐of‐Life Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Thoracoscopic Gemini S box ablation with confirmed entry and exit block achieved sinus rhythm in 87.0% of 23 patients at 1 year, all off Class I/III antiarrhythmic drugs. The box remained isolated at two of three reinterventions, with recurrence outside it involving the superior vena cava in all three.

Ventricular septal pacing: Optimum method to position the lead

open access: yes, 2018
Adverse hemodynamics of right ventricular (RV) pacing is known for years. Several studies have revealed that adverse outcomes of RV apical pacing are directly linked to cumulative percentage of ventricular pacing.

Macrophages Contribute to Pulmonary Hypertension Associated With Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 4, October 2026.
This study investigated proteomic and metabolomic differences in pulmonary macrophages and the lung microenvironment to determine molecular pathways involved in Sickle Cell Disease associated pulmonary hypertension. We concluded that macrophages play a critical role in disease pathology by decrease pulmonary arterial muscularization. ABSTRACT Pulmonary

Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Clinical Utility of Tissue Proximity Indication With a Variable‐Loop Circular Catheter for Pulmonary Vein Isolation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 10, Page 2173-2182, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The variable‐loop circular catheter (VLCC, VARIPULSE) is a pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) catheter equipped with a Tissue Proximity Indication (TPI) function, which monitors catheter‐tissue contact. Although TPI‐negative sites have been reported to contribute to gap formation, no studies have evaluated the utility of real‐time function.

Terminal S Wave Pattern in Lead V3 as a Simple Marker for Ventricular Tachycardia Risk Stratification in Patients With Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 10, Page 2261-2269, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) remain at risk of ventricular tachycardia (VT). This risk is most commonly related to slow conduction within the septal isthmus, which is defined as the region between the ventricular septal defect (VSD) patch and adjacent valvular annuli.

Association Between Sleep Quality and Oxidative Stress in Postoperative Cardiovascular Patients—A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 5, October 2026.
In 15 postoperative cardiac surgery patients, venous reactive oxygen species (ROS) measured by electron spin resonance (ESR) over 48 h showed no consistent circadian pattern. Higher ROS was associated with lower subjective sleep efficiency and more nocturnal awakenings, but not with other sleep measures.
