Cisterna Chyli Dilation Is a Risk Factor for Liver Nodules and Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Fontan‐Associated Liver Disease: Pathophysiological Role of Lymphatic Dysfunction

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In Fontan‐associated liver disease (FALD), chronic congestion often confounds conventional fibrosis markers, complicating surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although lymphatic dysfunction is fundamental to Fontan physiology, its contribution to hepatocarcinogenesis remains unclear.

Survival among patients with systemic sclerosis‐associated pulmonary arterial hypertension in the Australian scleroderma cohort study

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma; SSc) patients can develop pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is a leading cause of death. We sought to evaluate severity, therapeutic strategy and survival of SSc‐PAH in the Australian Scleroderma Cohort Study (ASCS).

Clinical Utility of Tissue Proximity Indication With a Variable‐Loop Circular Catheter for Pulmonary Vein Isolation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The variable‐loop circular catheter (VLCC, VARIPULSE) is a pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) catheter equipped with a Tissue Proximity Indication (TPI) function, which monitors catheter‐tissue contact. Although TPI‐negative sites have been reported to contribute to gap formation, no studies have evaluated the utility of real‐time function.

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 ...

Characterization of AF Recurrence and Substrate Health by Electrographic Flow (EGF) Consistency in EGF Mapping

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Electrographic flow (EGF) mapping is an FDA 510(k)‐cleared method for visualizing atrial activation wavefronts in atrial fibrillation (AF). Its clinical efficacy in detecting AF sources was demonstrated in the FLOW‐AF randomized controlled trial, and the underlying machine learning strategy used to develop and refine EGF source ...

Terminal S Wave Pattern in Lead V3 as a Simple Marker for Ventricular Tachycardia Risk Stratification in Patients With Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) remain at risk of ventricular tachycardia (VT). This risk is most commonly related to slow conduction within the septal isthmus, which is defined as the region between the ventricular septal defect (VSD) patch and adjacent valvular annuli.
