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.

The Cardio-Electrophysiological Balance Index in Cardiovascular Diseases
The index of the cardio-electrophysiological balance may be used to assess ventricular arrhythmogenesis. The index of cardio-electrophysiologic al balance has been associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Ventricular arrhythmias caused by drugs

Genetic Biomarkers in the Risk Assessment of Sudden Cardiac Events: A Personalized Approach
Genetic insights into the risk assessment of sudden cardiac events. ABSTRACT Sudden cardiac events are the leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional risk stratification methods, which largely depend on clinical history, imaging, and electrocardiography, are usually inadequate for identifying high‐risk individuals, especially those without visible ...

Torsade des pointes and aprindine
Aprindine was given orally to an 88-year-old patient with atrial fibrillation and ventricular premature depolarizations. The premature beats disappeared and sinus rhythm was restored on the third day of treatment. While on aprindine the QT interval was prolonged and the U wave became very prominent.

Cardiotoxicity of BRAF/MEK inhibitors
Abstract Rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma type B/B‐Raf proto‐oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors have transformed outcomes in cancer therapy, particularly in melanoma. However, cardiovascular toxicities are increasingly recognized in real‐world clinical practice.

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐associated myocarditis has emerged as a severe and clinically complex immune‐related toxicity that poses significant challenges for therapeutic decision‐making in routine cardio‐oncological care. High‐dose corticosteroids remain the first‐line therapy, yet their timing, dosage and tapering require careful clinical ...
