An Evaluation of Four Predictive Scores for New Onset Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery in a Tertiary Cardiac Centre

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Our paper shows that the four bedside predictive indices for POAF are not generalisable to our single‐centre tertiary cohort. Care should be taken in the utilisation of these scores in the clinical setting, as they may carry limited value in predicting POAF in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Prevalence and Prognostic Implication of Sarcopenia Among Patients With Stage B Heart Failure: The PAPRIKA‐HF Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The long‐term prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF) remains poor. Most patients with HF are older, and multiple factors involved in geriatric syndromes are associated with worse long‐term prognosis. Sarcopenia is a major component of geriatric syndrome.
