In anticoagulated atrial fibrillation, residual ischemic stroke risk persists despite guideline‐directed therapy. In this single‐center cohort, an enlarged index outpatient left atrial diameter independently predicted stroke and improved risk stratification when added to CHA2DS2‐VA (CHA2DS2‐VALa), supporting a simple, clinically implementable ...

ABSTRACT Background Amiodarone is frequently co‐prescribed with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in atrial fibrillation (AF), but its impact on early bleeding risk after DOAC initiation in older adults remains uncertain. We evaluated short‐term safety outcomes associated with concomitant amiodarone use at the time of DOAC initiation.

Cardiac structure and function in psoriasis: A cross‐sectional analysis of the PSOCADIA study
Individuals with well‐treated psoriasis exhibited a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction (GLS < 16%) compared with controls, independent of cardiometabolic comorbidity. The prevalence was similar across psoriasis severity, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular assessment in all patients with psoriasis. Abstract Background Psoriasis is linked

Frailty and Five‐Year Mortality After TAVR in Patients Aged 75 Years and Older
In patients aged 75 years and older undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, frailty assessed by the Clinical Frailty Scale was the most robust geriatric factor independently associated with five‐year mortality. This study highlights the specific prognostic value of frailty beyond short‐term outcomes.

Management of Left Atrial Appendage Thrombi and Spontaneous Echo Contrast
ABSTRACT Background To analyze the efficacy and safety of various anticoagulation strategies/regimen used for managing thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage. Methods Thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage was detected via transesophageal echocardiography in 83 patients, most often during a stroke
