Diagnosis of atrial fibrillation in heart failure patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator or cardiac resynchronisation therapy
CONCLUSIONS: Episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients with systolic heart failure and implanted cardioverter-defibrillator systems are quite common. The majority of the episodes recorded in the study were asymptomatic.PMID:34900037 | PMC:PMC8641502 | DOI:10.5114/aoms/114977

Prognostic significance of severe coronary microvascular dysfunction post-PCI in patients with STEMI: A systematic review and meta-analysis
by Marjorie Canu, Charles Khouri, St éphanie Marliere, Estelle Vautrin, Nicolas Piliero, Olivier Ormezzano, Bernard Bertrand, Hélène Bouvaist, Laurent Riou, Loic Djaileb, Clémence Charlon, Gerald Vanzetto, Matthieu Roustit, Gilles Barone-Rochette Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD) is common and associated with poorer outcomes in patients with ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). The index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) and the index of hyperemic microvascular resistance (HMR) are both invasive indexes of microva scular resistance proposed for the diagnosis of severe CMVD after primary percu...

A comparison of echocardiographic and circulating cardiac biomarkers for predicting incident cardiovascular disease
This study compared the predictive value of such measures to that of circulating cardiac biomarkers for a composite cardiovascular disease outcome in an aging population. MethodsIn this prospective population-based cohort study, echocardiography was performed at baseline together with assessments of traditional CVD risk factors and circulating cardiac biomarkers, NT-proBNP and troponin I, in 1016 individuals all aged 70 years. Assessments were repeated at ages 75 and 80. A composite CVD outcome (myocardial infarction, heart failure or ischemic stroke) was charted over 15 years. All echocardiography variables, except for th...
