Background: Real-world data regarding clinical outcomes according to aortic stenosis (AS) management are scarce. Therefore, we aimed to investigate long-term management across the spectrum of outpatients with AS.

Methods And Results: Between May 2016 and December 2017, consecutive outpatients with mild (peak aortic velocity, 2.

Article Synopsis
  • SCN5A gene variants are linked to various cardiac electrical disorders, but they can also result in complex phenotypes like overlap syndromes, which haven't been thoroughly studied.
  • The study analyzed DNA from over 13,500 patients with a focus on those carrying pathogenic SCN5A variants, finding that most were tied to well-defined conditions like Brugada syndrome and long QT syndrome.
  • About 19% of the variants were associated with complex phenotypes, and only a small number (8 out of 9,960 patients) showed a potential link to dilated cardiomyopathies (DCM), suggesting it's a rare association.

Background: Electrical storm (ES) is a life-threatening condition, associated with substantial early and subacute mortality. Catheter ablation (CA) is a well-established therapy for ES. However, data regarding the impact of CA on the short-term and midterm survival of patients admitted for ES remain unclear.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are currently the leading cause of maternal death in Western countries. Although multidisciplinary cardio-obstetric teams are recommended to improve the management of pregnant women with CVD, data supporting this approach are scarce.

Aims: To describe the characteristics and outcomes of pregnant patients with CVD managed within the cardio-obstetric programme of a tertiary centre.
