Po-05-141 association of interatrial block and the development of atrial fibrillation among patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia among those with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), affecting 1 in 5 patients. The combination of HCM and AF is associated with an increased risk of stroke, heart failure, and mortality. Interatrial block (IAB) is a distinct electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern describing conduction delay between the right and left atria through Bachmann ’s bundle. IAB has been identified as a predictor of AF across several disease states including congestive heart failure, valvular disease, and cardiac amyloidosis.

Atrial cardiomyopathy and incident ischemic stroke risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionAtrial cardiomyopathy markers, including electrocardiographic markers, serum markers, LA structural and functional markers, can be used to stratify the risk of incident ischemic stroke.

IL-1 β is not critical to chronic heart dysfunction in mice with Chagas disease
In conclusion, the absence of functional IL-1β/IL-1R signaling did not prevent or reverse the decrease of SV or the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias induced by chronic T. cruzi infection, implying this is not a critical mechanism in generating or maintaining CCC. Since similar cardiac abnormalities were previously credited to IL-1β signaling, ruling out this mechanism is important to discourage further attempts of IL-1β blockade as a therapeutical measure.

Atrial cardiomyopathy: from cell to bedside
AbstractAtrial cardiomyopathy refers to structural and electrical remodelling of the atria, which can lead to impaired mechanical function. While historical studies have implicated atrial fibrillation as the leading cause of cardioembolic stroke, atrial cardiomyopathy may be an important, underestimated contributor. To date, the relationship between atrial cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, and cardioembolic stroke remains obscure. This review summarizes the pathogenesis of atrial cardiomyopathy, with a special focus on neurohormonal and inflammatory mechanisms, as well as the role of adipose tissue, especially epicardia...

From cryptogenic to ESUS: Toward precision medicine?
Rev Neurol (Paris). 2022 May 18:S0035-3787(22)00592-6. doi: 10.1016/j.neurol.2022.01.016. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCryptogenic infarctions are infarctions without a defined cause, despite a complete work-up. They differ from infarctions of undetermined causes, which may involve overlapping causes or an incomplete investigation. It is also different from uncommon heritable and non-heritable causes. The term embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) proposed in 2014 is defined as a non-lacunar brain infarct without proximal arterial stenosis or cardioembolic sources. The major advantage of this definition compared to...

Case Report of High-Grade Atrioventricular Block and Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSION: When AVB or other arrhythmias initiate a TTC, the patient can experience sudden cardiac death and decompensate quickly. Therefore, clinicians should understand this rare but fatal complication because these patients require pacemakers and beta blockers.PMID:35348088 | PMC:PMC8817916 | DOI:10.7812/TPP/21.006
