Sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting results from the STICH randomized clinical trial (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with heart failure following CABG has not been examined in a contemporary clinical trial of surgical revascularization. This analysis describes the incidence, timing and clinical predictors of

Coronary Ectasia and ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients: Does Atherosclerosis Influence Periprocedural Management and Long‐Term Prognosis?

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) influences procedural outcomes in the context of ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI); however, its relationship with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (ACAD) remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to compare clinical and procedural characteristics, as well as outcomes, in patients with ...

Aortic Dissection With Pseudoaneurysm Formation Masquerading as Pulmonary Embolism After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a commonly performed procedure for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. While it is generally considered a low‐risk procedure, one of the rare potentially life‐threatening complications includes aortic dissection.

Shortening of the Short Refractory Periods in Short QT Syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of short QT syndrome (SQTS) remains difficult in case of borderline QT values as often found in normal populations. Whether some shortening of refractory periods (RP) may help in differentiating SQTS from normal subjects is unknown.

Transcatheter Management of Severe Paravalvular Leak in the Inferior Vena Cava Prosthesis of the TricValve Bicaval Valve System

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a 74‐year‐old female with a history of mechanical aortic and mitral valve implantation and non‐Hodgkin lymphoma. She presented with right sided heart failure due to severe functional tricuspid regurgitation and was treated with transcatheter TricValve bicaval system implantation.

Effects of candesartan, an angiotensin II receptor type I blocker, on atrial remodeling in spontaneously hypertensive rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Hypertension-induced structural remodeling of the left atrium (LA) has been suggested to involve the renin–angiotensin system. This study investigated whether treatment with an angiotensin receptor blocker, candesartan, regresses atrial remodeling in ...

In‐Hospital Outcomes of Simultaneous and Staged Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement and Endovascular Aneurysm Repair

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with aortic aneurysms are at elevated risk of rupture, dissection and death during and after transcatheter aortic valve repair (TAVR), often requiring consideration for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) at the time of TAVR. However, data comparing outcomes of simultaneous versus staged TAVR‐EVAR are limited.

Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Therapy in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy: Predictors of Appropriate Therapy, Outcomes, and Complications

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundArrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is characterized by ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Once the diagnosis is established, risk stratification to determine whether implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator ...
