Article Synopsis
- Very few studies have explored the effectiveness of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICDs) in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), which this research aims to address.
- In a French cohort study of 4,924 patients implanted with an S-ICD, only 101 were found to have CHD, often presenting at a younger age and more often for secondary prevention compared to non-CHD patients.
- The study found that while patients with CHD had a higher crude risk of receiving appropriate shocks from their S-ICD, this risk was not significant after adjusting for other factors, indicating that complications and inappropriate shocks were similar across both patient groups.
The Mazabraud syndrome is a rare form of bone fibrous dysplasia associated with intramuscular myxomas. The McCune-Albright syndrome is characterized by the association of dysplasia fibrous bone to one or more extra-osseous manifestations, including café-au-lait skin spots and endocrine disturbances. Here, we report on a new case of a 52-year-old man with sacroiliac polyostotic bone fibrous dysplasia associated with intramuscular myxomas of the left buttock and thigh and a café-au-lait skin spot.

- * Overall incidence of SrSCA remained stable, with only a small percentage occurring in competitive young athletes, while most cases were in middle-aged recreational sports participants.
- * Significant improvements were noted in the use of bystander CPR and automated external defibrillators, leading to a tripling of survival rates from 23.8% to 66.7% over the study period, emphasizing the importance of public training in life support.

Since the appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the direct mortality related to COVID-19 infections has been monitored worldwide, with a daily count of the number of deaths due to COVID-19. Several measures have been undertaken in the societal and professional field, and the healthcare systems have been reorganized to limit the virus spread, and to cope with the surge of hospital admissions for COVID-19. Questions have been raised regarding the indirect effect of the pandemic, with uncertainties regarding the impact of delays in non-COVID diseases management, due to lockdown, postponement of non-urgent medical consultations and interventions, and decrease in screening.
