Development and validation of a nomogram superior to CHADS < sub > 2 < /sub > and CHA < sub > 2 < /sub > DS < sub > 2 < /sub > -VASc models for predicting left atrial appendage dense spontaneous echo contrast/left atrial appendage thrombus
CONCLUSIONS: The nomogram model constructed in this study demonstrated excellent performance in predicting LAA dense SEC/LAAT, displaying a superior ability to that of the CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc models.PMID:38617765 | PMC:PMC11009604 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-24-288 (Source: Journal of Thoracic Disease)

Impact of atrial fibrillation on 1-year outcome in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator or cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator: results from the German DEVICE Registry
CONCLUSIONS: Our clinical data on an extended cohort of contemporary patients confirm the significant impact of AF, and its associated comorbidities, upon mortality and major adverse events after implantation of ICD/CRT.PMID:38617758 | PMC:PMC11009579 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-23-274 (Source: Journal of Thoracic Disease)

Extracellular acidification reveals the antiarrhythmic properties of amiodarone related to late sodium current-induced atrial arrhythmia
CONCLUSION: The pharmacological properties of AMIO concerning healthy rat atrial tissue are not dependent on pHe. However, the prevention of arrhythmias induced by INa-Late is pHe-dependent. The development of drugs analogous to AMIO with charge stabilization may help to create more effective drugs to treat arrhythmias related to the INa-Late.PMID:38619735 | DOI:10.1007/s43440-024-00597-2 (Source: Pharmacological Reports)

Comparison of safety and effectiveness of different sheaths in ablation of focal atrial tachycardia: a retrospective study
CONCLUSIONS: The application of Vizigo sheath can improve the long-term success rate of FAT and reduce the radiation exposure of patients and medical staff in our single-center limited sample study. More research may be needed in the future to confirm our findings.PMID:38617770 | PMC:PMC11009573 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-24-52 (Source: Journal of Thoracic Disease)
