Minimum Lumen Area Indexed to Left Ventricular Mass to Identify Functionally Significant Left Main Coronary Stenoses

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Diagnosing significant left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenoses based on anatomical criteria remains challenging. The ARMYDA FINISH multicenter study evaluated whether indexing intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)‐derived minimum lumen area (MLA) provides greater diagnostic accuracy than unindexed MLA for detecting ...

Navigating the Uncertainties of Antithrombotic Therapy After Transcatheter Patent Foramen Ovale Closure: A Comprehensive Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The patent foramen ovale (PFO), present in 25% of the population, can cause paradoxical embolism and stroke. Transcatheter PFO closure is the gold standard for recurrent embolism with significant inter‐atrial shunting, with recent trials confirming its superiority in reducing ischemic stroke recurrence over medical therapy.

Unfortunately Fortunate

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
An 88-year-old female presented with inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks. Interrogation revealed lead noise sensed as ventricular fibrillation, leading to 11 shocks in 1 day. A defibrillation at the period of maximal vulnerability

Founder mutations in the Netherlands: familial idiopathic ventricular fibrillation and DPP6

Netherlands Heart Journal, 2011
In this part of a series on founder mutations in the Netherlands, we review familial idiopathic ventricular fibrillation linked to the DPP6 gene. Familial idiopathic ventricular fibrillation determines an intriguing subset of the inheritable arrhythmia ...

Pharmacological Inhibition of β Myosin II Disrupts Sarcomere Assembly in Human iPSC‐Derived Cardiac Myocytes

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sarcomeres are the fundamental contractile units of striated muscle. The functional roles of the cardiac‐specific myosin heavy chains, MYH6 (α myosin II) and MYH7 (β myosin II) during sarcomere assembly remain controversial. To address this, we utilized a selective MYH7 inhibitor, mavacamten, in combination with siRNA‐mediated knockdown of ...

Cathepsin A Mediates Ventricular Remote Remodeling and Atrial Cardiomyopathy in Rats With Ventricular Ischemia/Reperfusion

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2019
Summary: After myocardial infarction, remote ventricular remodeling and atrial cardiomyopathy progress despite successful revascularization. In a rat model of ventricular ischemia/reperfusion, pharmacological inhibition of the protease activity of ...

Short-coupled premature ventricular contractions in a young male with sudden cardiac arrest

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
Introduction: Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation secondary to short-coupled premature ventricular contractions (scPVCs) is a rare cause of sudden cardiac arrest and predominantly originates from the His-Purkinje system or right ventricular outflow tract.

Autopsy findings in cases of fatal COVID‐19 vaccine‐induced myocarditis

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract COVID‐19 vaccines have been linked to myocarditis, which, in some circumstances, can be fatal. This systematic review aims to investigate potential causal links between COVID‐19 vaccines and death from myocarditis using post‐mortem analysis.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

The phosphatonin fibroblast growth factor 23 links calcium-phosphate metabolism with left-ventricular dysfunction and atrial fibrillation.

European Heart Journal, 2011
AIMS High serum phosphate is linked to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the general population. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a critical phosphate regulating hormone, potentially reflecting phosphate load better than a single serum ...
