Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...

Cardiac adrenergic control and atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and it causes substantial mortality. The autonomic nervous system, and particularly the adrenergic/cholinergic balance, has a profound influence on the occurrence of AF ...

Abstract Aims Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are the cornerstone of modern oncology; however, side effects such as ICI‐related myocarditis (irM) can be fatal. Recently, Bonaca proposed criteria for irM; however, it is unknown if they correlate well with cardiovascular (CV) ICI‐related adverse events.

Bepridil for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Bepridil was originally developed as an anti-angina drug which suppresses mainly L and T type calcium channels, several potassium channels, and fast kinetic sodium channel of the myocardial cells. Bepridil has been used for restoring sinus rhythm and maintenance of sinus rhythm in patients with long-lasting atrial fibrillation in Japan.

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 Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been shown to be associated with disordered gut microbiota (GM). The underlying factors governing persistent AF (psAF) are not well understood, and the association between AF duration and GM profiles remains to be ...

Contrast-enhanced CMR in patients after percutaneous closure of the left atrial appendage: A pilot study [PDF]
Background To evaluate the feasibility and value of first-pass contrast-enhanced dynamic and post-contrast 3D CMR in patients after transcatheter occlusion of left atrial appendage (LAA) to identify incorrect placement and persistent leaks.
