Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Abstract Background Obesity is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet an ‘obesity paradox’ has been observed in various CVD contexts. The impact of obesity on heart failure (HF) patients treated with a wearable cardioverter‐defibrillator (WCD) remains underexplored.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Myocarditis in treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) [PDF]
Patients with cancer have multiple etiological factors for the development of myocarditis. Classical or conventional chemotherapy, radiotherapy and, more recently, immunotherapy have been described as possible etiological causes of myocarditis.

Cardiogenic Shock due to Left Ventricular Outflow Obstruction and Complete Atrioventricular Block in a Patient with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Acute Myocarditis [PDF]
A 67-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with a sudden syncopal attack. She suffered from cardiogenic shock due to left ventricular (LV) outflow stenosis with simultaneous complete atrioventricular (AV) block. An endomyocardial biopsy of the left

Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

Seizures and Syncope Due to Complete Atrioventricular Block in a Patient with Acute Myocarditis with a Normal Left Ventricular Systolic Function [PDF]
A 43-year-old man was admitted to our hospital presenting with seizures and syncope. He had a history of a cold with a fever of 39°C occurring three days earlier.

Abstract Aims Mortality in cardiogenic shock (CS) remains elevated, with the potential for CS causes to impact prognosis and risk stratification. The aim was to investigate in‐hospital prognosis and mortality in CS patients according to aetiology. We also assessed the prognostic accuracy of CardShock and IABP‐SHOCK II scores.
