Revascularisation for Symptomatic Peripheral Artery Disease: External Applicability of the VOYAGER PAD Trial
CONCLUSION: Among patients in routine clinical practice, 27.1% were eligible for the VOYAGER PAD trial. These patients were older, had more severe vascular symptoms, higher bleeding risk, and worse prognosis than trial participants.PMID:34924303 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejvs.2021.10.026

Bereavement in childhood and young adulthood and the risk of atrial fibrillation: a population-based cohort study from Denmark and Sweden
Adverse childhood life events are associated with increased risks of hypertension, ischemic heart disease, and stroke later in life. Limited evidence also suggests that stress in adulthood may increase the ris...

Loss of a child and the risk of atrial fibrillation: a Danish population-based prospective cohort study
Conclusions The death of a child was associated with a modestly increased risk of AF. Bereaved parents may benefit from increased support from family members and health professionals.

Atorvastatin and the influence on postoperative atrial fibrillation after surgical aortic valve replacement (STARC) in adults at Odense University Hospital, Denmark: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common postoperative complication after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and occurs in up to 50% of the patients. Development of postoperative AF (POAF) is associated with a 2–3 fold increased risk of adverse events, including stroke, myocardial infarction and death. Several studies have implied that prophylactic Atorvastatin therapy could prevent POAF in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft. These studies suggest that Atorvastatin has rapid and significant pleiotropic actions that reduce the risk of POAF. However, prophylactic treatment with stati...

Lb-456091-2 dynamic data driven management of atrial fibrillation using implantable cardiac monitors – the monitor af study
Management of atrial fibrillation (AF) is often complex and dynamic. Clinical decisions related to initiation of rate control, rhythm control strategies, stroke prophylaxis measures depend on the assessment of the presence and the burden of AF. Assessment of therapy outcomes and withdrawl of drugs and anticoagulation are guided by AF monitoring. Implantable cardiac monitors (ICM) are excellent tools to detect and monitor AF burden in a dynamic fashion. We prospectively studied if the presence of an ICM impacts the management of AF and there by clinical outcomes.

Po-05-185 prediction and risk of atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a danish nationwide cohort study
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) can be associated with serious complications such as heart failure, atrial fibrillation (AF) and sudden cardiac death. The treatment of AF in HCM patients can be challenging since AF often aggravates symptoms and increases the risk of stroke. Little is known on which factors contribute to the development of AF in these patients.

Po-01-087 a rare case of bi-atrial fdg-uptake: presenting as new onset atrial fibrillation
Isolated atrial myocarditis is rare, with presenting symptoms that are non-specific. Prior reports have suggested association with atrial arrythmias and increased risk of stroke due to atrial dysfunction. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) CT scan is considered as a goal standard test for the diagnosis of myocarditis.

Long-Term Imaging and Clinical Outcomes of Surgical Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With AtriClip
Surgical left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion with an AtriClip (AtriCure, West Chester, Ohio) is frequently performed for stroke prophylaxis in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We conducted a retrospective analysis of all patients with long-standing persistent AF who underwent hybrid convergent ablation and LAA clipping. Contrast-enhanced cardiac computed tomography was performed at 3 to 6  months after LAA clipping to assess the degree of complete closure and the residual LAA stump. A total of 78 patients (64 ± 10 years, 72% male) underwent LAA clipping as part of hybrid convergent AF ablation, from 2019 to 2020.

Temporal trends of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Denmark: a nationwide retrospective cohort study
Conclusion There was a consistent rise in HCM cases with decreasing morbidity burden. Females were older at diagnosis and more likely to have their type of HCM classified as obstructive. The rate of outpatient follow-up is increasing.
