Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the ability of uni- and bipolar electrograms collected with a multielectrode catheter with smaller electrodes to: 1) delineate scar; and 2) determine local scar complexity.

Background: Early reperfusion results in variable endocardial scar, often overlaid with surviving viable myocardium. Although bipolar voltage (BV) mapping is considered the pillar of substrate-based ablation, the role of unipolar voltage (UV) mapping has not been sufficiently explored.

Objectives: Isolated tricuspid valve (TV) surgery is rarely performed and has been associated with high mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical outcome and functional capacity following isolated TV surgery in contemporary practice.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study including all patients who underwent isolated TV surgery at our institution from 2013 to 2019.

Aims: South Asian (SA) patients are known to have an increased incidence of acute cardiovascular events compared with Caucasians. The aim of this observational study was to compare the prevalence of coronary stenoses, the amount and composition of coronary atherosclerosis in a cohort of Caucasian and SA patients with stable chest pain, in non-acute settings.

Methods And Results: The study protocol conformed to the ethical guidelines of the 1975 Declaration of Helsinki.
