Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.

Alcohol Abstinence in Drinkers with Atrial Fibrillation
BACKGROUND Excessive alcohol consumption is associated with incident atrial fibrillation and adverse atrial remodeling; however, the effect of abstinence from alcohol on secondary prevention of atrial fibrillation is unclear.

Exercising electrocardiograms from Thoroughbred racehorses with exercise associated sudden death
Abstract Background Exercise associated sudden death (EASD), defined as a fatal collapse in a closely monitored and previously presumed clinically healthy horse that occurs during exercise or within approximately 1 h after exercise, is disproportionately more common in equine than in human athletes.

Ranolazine in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Direct-current cardioversion (DCCV) is used as a rhythm-control strategy in persistent symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) and is often supported by antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs), usually class III AADs, to improve outcomes. Although primarily used as an antianginal agent, ranolazine has also shown evidence of antiarrhythmic properties in AF.We detail ...

This review organizes flexible wearable electronics for cardiovascular monitoring into four interconnected information layers: surface electrophysiology, hemodynamic sensing, vascular imaging, and biofluid biomarker analysis. This framework clarifies how electrical rhythm, vascular loading, structural and flow‐related features, and biochemical states ...

What Governs Immediate or Delayed Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation by Direct Current Shock?
Background: Aftershock delivery and direct current DC-cardioversion of atrial fibrillation may be immediate or delayed. Objective: To characterize the immediate or delayed reversion of atrial fibrillation.

Approaches to Catheter Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Catheter ablation is less successful for persistent atrial fibrillation than for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Guidelines suggest that adjuvant substrate modification in addition to pulmonary-vein isolation is required in persistent atrial fibrillation.We randomly assigned 589 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation in a 1:4:4 ratio to ablation ...

Using and interpreting cost-effectiveness acceptability curves: an example using data from a trial of management strategies for atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Background: The cost-effectiveness acceptability curve (CEAC) is a method for summarizing the uncertainty in estimates of cost-effectiveness. The CEAC, derived from the joint distribution of costs and effects, illustrates the (Bayesian) probability ...

Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...
