Safety and Efficacy of Iron Chelators in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Iron overload in chronic kidney disease contributes to oxidative injury. The role of iron chelators, standard in transfusion‐related overload, remains unclear in chronic kidney disease. Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iron chelators in adults with chronic kidney disease.

At the heart of home‐based care: multidisciplinary heart failure management in a quaternary centre's community programmes

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Heart failure (HF) is a frequent cause of hospital admissions, carrying a high risk of hospital readmission and mortality. Alfred Health General Medicine Hospital in the Home (GM‐HITH) and Hospital Admission Risk Program (HARP) offer multidisciplinary HF care to multimorbid patients in bed‐substitution and non‐admitted community ...

Trajectory of macrotroponin in a community cohort

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is a biomarker for myocardial injury. However, macrotroponin, a complex of cTnI and endogenous cardiac troponin autoantibodies, may artefactually elevate cTnI levels with potential to mislead clinicians, leading to inappropriate investigation and management.

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 ...

Anatomical Determinants of the Left Atrial Electrograms: Wall Thickness and Myocardial Fat Infiltration

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Electrogram peak‐to‐peak voltage depends on atrial wall structure and mapping configuration. We evaluated the relationship between computed tomography–derived atrial wall thickness, intramyocardial fat, myocardial muscle thickness, and electrogram voltage obtained with omnipolar, bipolar, and unipolar mapping.

Safety and Efficacy of Right‐ Versus Left‐Sided Transvenous Lead Extraction

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed for malfunction or infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices. Because of anatomic differences, TLE for right‐sided (RS) electrodes may differ in outcome. This study aimed to evaluate whether RS TLE differs in patient characteristics and outcomes compared ...
