Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the impact of sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) on atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATA) in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), revealing a notable reduction in ATA hospitalizations linked to SGLT2i use.
- - Analyzing data from 13,888 patients over 24,442 years of follow-up, results show a 22% decrease in ATA risk and all-cause mortality among SGLT2i users, particularly in heart failure patients, but no significant effect on ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VTA).
- - The findings suggest that SGLT2i can significantly lower ATA and mortality
Background: Use of oral contraceptives (OCs) may modulate the clinical course of women with congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). The safety of OC use by sex hormone content has not been assessed in women with LQTS.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the association of OCs with the risk of cardiac events (CEs) in women with LQTS.
