Usefulness of helical computed tomography in diagnosing pulmonary vein stenosis in infants.

open access: yes
We investigated the usefulness of helical computed tomography(CT)in the morphological diagnosis of pulmonary vein stenosis, particularly that in infants and small children. In total, 20 helical CT examinations were performed in 10 post-operative cases of

Refining Residual Ischemic Stroke Risk in Anticoagulated Atrial Fibrillation Using Index Outpatient LA Diameter: The CHA2DS2‐VALa Score

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
In anticoagulated atrial fibrillation, residual ischemic stroke risk persists despite guideline‐directed therapy. In this single‐center cohort, an enlarged index outpatient left atrial diameter independently predicted stroke and improved risk stratification when added to CHA2DS2‐VA (CHA2DS2‐VALa), supporting a simple, clinically implementable ...

Safety and Utility of Smartphone‐Based Heart Monitors in Pediatric Patients With Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Smartphone heart monitors in pediatric CIEDs: A pilot study. Smartphone heart monitors did not induce EMI in children with CIEDs, enabling reliable heart rate measurement and accurate identification of ventricular non‐captures. ABSTRACT Background Portable heart monitors enable on‐demand electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings and enhance symptom‐rhythm ...

Development and Validation of a Novel Contact Force‐Integrated Pulsed Field Quantization Index for Pulmonary Vein Isolation in a Porcine Model

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
A two‐phase pre‐clinical porcine study was performed to develop and validate the Pulsed Field Quantisation Index (PFQI), the first bipolar‐specific ablation index integrating real‐time contact force (CF), pulse‐train number, delivery voltage, and impedance variation for bipolar pulsed field ablation (PFA).

Frequent Premature Ventricular Complexes and Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Among 421 patients undergoing ablation of atrial fibrillation, frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) > 1% were present in a significant proportion of patients at baseline. The PVC burden did not increase significantly in the post‐AF ablation period and was not associated with a higher rate of recurrent AF.

Cardiac structure and function in psoriasis: A cross‐sectional analysis of the PSOCADIA study

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Individuals with well‐treated psoriasis exhibited a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction (GLS < 16%) compared with controls, independent of cardiometabolic comorbidity. The prevalence was similar across psoriasis severity, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular assessment in all patients with psoriasis. Abstract Background Psoriasis is linked

Frailty and Five‐Year Mortality After TAVR in Patients Aged 75 Years and Older

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
In patients aged 75 years and older undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, frailty assessed by the Clinical Frailty Scale was the most robust geriatric factor independently associated with five‐year mortality. This study highlights the specific prognostic value of frailty beyond short‐term outcomes.
