Prediabetes predisposes to ischemia-related ventricular arrhythmias Open
Background –Sudden cardiac death, mainly due to malignant ventricular arrhythmias (VA) linked to coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction (AMI), is a leading cause of mortality. Obesity and associated prediabetes are the most…

Exercise‐induced dynamic mitral regurgitation is associated with outcomes in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy Open
Aims Ischaemic mitral regurgitation (MR) is a dynamic condition influenced by global and regional left ventricular remodelling as well as mitral valvular deformation. Exercise testing plays a substantial role in assessing the haemodynamic …

The US4ABL Strategy: A Systematic Ultrasound-Guided Approach for Left Atrial and Ventricular Ablation Procedures Open
Background: The safety and efficacy of electrophysiological (EP) procedures using ultrasound (US) guidance are being increasingly studied. We investigated if a systematic workflow with ultrasound guidance (the US4ABL), comprising four step…

Senolysis ameliorates increased susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias in prediabetes Open
Background Obesity and associated prediabetes are major risk factors for cardiovascular disease that promote cellular senescence and predispose to ventricular arrhythmias (VA). In consequence, targeting cellular senescence may represent a …

Release of neuronal injury markers differs according to the technique of pulmonary vein isolation Open
Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Previous studies showed a release of neuronal injury markers during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation using thermal energies such as radiofrequency or cryothermy. Pu…

Clinical significance of the DUS4ABL strategy for systematically guiding left atrial and ventricular electrophysiological procedures Open
Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background The ultrasound evolved as an indispensable tool to guide electrophysiological (EP) procedures (i.e., gain femoral access, transseptal puncture or exclude pericardial effusi…

Total atrial conduction time provides novel information in prediction for stroke in patients with sinus rhythm Open
The total atrial conduction time (TACT) measured by echocardiography predicts the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). This study aimed to investigate whether adding the TACT to the revised Framingham stroke risk profile (rFSRP) improves the …

Ageing impairs the neuro-vascular interface in the heart Open
Aging is a major risk factor for impaired cardiovascular health. The aging myocardium is characterized by electrophysiological dysfunctions such as a reduced heart rate variability. These alterations can be intrinsic within cardiomyocytes,…

Clinical Impact of Circulating Galectin-3 on Ventricular Arrhythmias and Heart Failure Hospitalization Independent of Prior Ventricular Arrhythmic Events in Patients with Implantable Cardioverter-defibrillators Open
Objective For risk stratification of sudden cardiac death in patients with structural heart disease, more precise predictors in addition to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are clinically needed. The present study assessed the uti…

A modified approach for programmed electrical stimulation in mice: Inducibility of ventricular arrhythmias Open
Our findings suggest that the presented approach of modified PES enables effective induction and quantification of VA in wildtype mice and may well be suited to document and evaluate detailed VA characteristics in mice.

Disruption of cardiac cholinergic neurons enhances susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias Open
The parasympathetic nervous system plays an important role in the pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation. Catheter ablation, a minimally invasive procedure deactivating abnormal firing cardiac tissue, is increasingly becoming the therapy o…
