Purpose: The significance of pancreatitis-associated hemorrhage outside the context of a ruptured pseudoaneurysm remains unclear. This study aims to characterize the clinical significance of pancreatic hemorrhage during acute pancreatitis (AP).
Methods: This retrospective study included adult patients diagnosed with hemorrhagic pancreatitis (HP) from 2010 to 2021.
Background: Undetected atrial fibrillation (AF) poses a significant risk of stroke and cardiovascular mortality. However, diagnosing AF in real-time can be challenging as the arrhythmia is often not captured instantly. To address this issue, a deep-learning model was developed to diagnose AF even during periods of arrhythmia-free windows.

We proposed that the ANTWERP score, which was validated in a European group of patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who had AF ablation, would be valid in an Asian group as well. The purpose of the study is to examine how well a new scoring system (the ANTWERP score) can predict heart function improvement after atrial fibrillation ablation in Asian patients with heart failure.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the risk of peri-procedural adverse events in OSA patients undergoing procedural sedation in ambulatory settings, compared to those without OSA.
Methods: Four databases were systematically searched for studies published from January 1, 2011 to January 4, 2024.
