Plasma TSH and cardiovascular disease in the general population: A mendelian randomization study of 105,224 individuals
The association between thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and cardiovascular disease has mainly been determined using clinical categories of disease. We tested the hypothesis that TSH on a continuous scale is associated with risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, heart failure (HF), aortic valve stenosis (AVS), and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and whether these associations are likely to be causal.

Transcatheter Left Atrial Appendage Closure
Methodist Debakey Cardiovasc J. 2023 May 16;19(3):67-77. doi: 10.14797/mdcvj.1215. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia worldwide, placing a large population at risk for potentially disabling ischemic strokes, yet an estimated 50% of eligible patients cannot tolerate or are contraindicated to receive oral anticoagulation. Within the last 15 years, transcatheter options for left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) have provided a valuable alternative to chronic oral anticoagulation for reducing risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. With newer...
