Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of T1 mapping techniques via cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NICM) patients.
Materials And Methods: PubMed and Google Scholar were searched for studies examining the prognostic value of myocardial tissue characterization via CMR imaging with T1 mapping in NICM. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) included cardiac death, ventricular arrhythmia/sudden cardiac death (SCD) events, and heart failure events.
. To identify the difference between adult patients with septal defects and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) and patients without a history of arrhythmia using the left atrial (LA) volume and function parameters, to reveal the parameters associated with AF development. .

- Carotid artery disease is common in patients with coronary heart disease, requiring revascularization options that include simultaneous or staged surgeries for treatment.
- A study involving 192 patients compared the outcomes of simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and carotid endarterectomy (CEA) versus staged procedures, assessing their 30-day and long-term effects on overall health.
- Results showed no significant differences in short-term and long-term major cardiovascular events between the two groups, but the simultaneous surgery group had a higher risk of complications and required longer ventilatory support, despite not leading to more deaths or major adverse events.
Treatment Strategies for Chronic Coronary Heart Disease with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction or Preserved Ejection Fraction-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Unlabelled: In this meta-analysis, we examine the advantages of invasive strategies for patients diagnosed with chronic coronary heart disease (CHD) and preserved left ventricular (LV) function, as well as those with significant LV systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction (EF) < 45%).
Material And Methods: We conducted a systematic search to identify all randomized trials directly comparing invasive strategies with optimal medical therapy (OMT) in patients diagnosed with chronic CHD. Data from these trials were pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis.
Aim This study focused on a systematic review and meta-analysis on the predictive role of quantifying the epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume using data of computed tomography (CT) in patients after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF).Material and methods We performed a search in PubMed and Google Scholar for studies that examined the predictive value of EAT volume measured by CT for AF recurrence in patients after undergoing pulmonary venous isolation. Risk ratio (RR) values from studies, where similar scoring criteria were available, were pooled for the meta-analysis.
