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.

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.

Relationship between serum level of CD40 ligand and persistent lone atrial fibrillation
Objective: Inflammation is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation. The relationship between CD40 ligand (CD40L), a prothrombotic and proinflammatory molecule, and lone atrial fibrillation was presently investigated for the ...

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.

Objectives: In this study, the serum level of matrix metalloproteinase-9 was studied as an independent predictor of recurrence after catheter ablation of a persistent form of atrial fibrillation. Methods: The study included 46 patients with a persistent

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 ...

Early or Delayed Cardioversion in Recent-Onset Atrial Fibrillation
To the Editor: Pluymaekers et al. (April 18 issue)(1) evaluated the occurrence of spontaneous cardioversion in patients with recent-onset (<36 hours) atrial fibrillation. The proposed wait-and-see approach included cardioversion within 48 hours in the

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.

Background—Atrial stretch causes remodeling that predisposes to atrial fibrillation. We tested the hypothesis that peaks in left atrial (LA) wall stress are associated with focal remodeling.\ud \ud Methods and Results—Nineteen patients underwent LA ...
