Disparity in spatial distribution of pericardial calcifications in constrictive pericarditis

Open Heart, 2018
Background Pericardial calcification is seen among patients with constrictive pericarditis (CP). However, the pattern of pericardial calcium distribution and the association with clinical outcomes and imaging data are not well described. Methods This was

Association between CMR‐derived hepatic T1‐time, tricuspid regurgitation and survival

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
We investigated the association between tricuspid regurgitation (TR) severity and hepatic T1‐time in 1029 patients undergoing cardiac MRI and echocardiography. Hepatic T1‐time increased progressively with TR severity and remained independently associated after adjusting for NT‐proBNP and right ventricular function. Both TR and hepatic T1‐time predicted

Pentaspline Pulsed Field Ablation Versus High‐Power Short‐Duration/Very High‐Power Short‐Duration Radiofrequency Ablation in Atrial Fibrillation: A Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
PFA in AF patients is associated with similar efficacy and safety profiles as compared to HPSD/vHPSD RFA, with shorter procedural but longer fluoroscopy times. Large, well‐designed RCTs are eagerly awaited to expand our findings. ABSTRACT Background Pulsed field energy has been proposed as alternative to radiofrequency energy in atrial fibrillation (AF)

Ethanol Infusion in the Vein of Marshall for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: Evidence From Randomized Controlled Trials

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the cornerstone of catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF), yet outcomes remain suboptimal in persistent AF patients. Ethanol infusion in the vein of Marshal (VoM), an embryological remnant implicated in AF pathogenesis, may enhance ablation efficacy.

Diagnostic procedure for localized constrictive pericarditis leading to bilateral pleural effusion: two case reports

ESC Heart Failure
Constrictive pericarditis is a rare disease. Localized constrictive pericarditis leading to bilateral pleural effusion is more difficult to recognize, and the diagnostic procedure can be ambiguous.

Colchicine and cardiovascular events: An updated meta‐analysis of published randomized controlled trials

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Colchicine shows promise in reducing cardiovascular risk, but a recent study raised the question whether this is really the case. We conducted a meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess its impact on cardiovascular outcomes in secondary prevention.

Transient constrictive pericarditis in Bruton disease: a case report

Российский кардиологический журнал
Introduction. Constrictive pericarditis is a long-term consequence of any pathological process developing in the pericardium due to fibrinous thickening and calcification of its layers, which prevents normal cardiac diastolic filling. One of its forms is

Effusive-constrictive pericarditis: current perspectives

Journal of Vascular Diagnostics and Interventions, 2018
: Effusive-constrictive pericarditis (ECP) is defined by concurrent pericardial effusion and pericardial constriction. Whereas the pericardial cavity is typically obliterated in patients with constrictive pericarditis without any effusion, in patients ...
