Background: This research aimed to investigate the clinical features exhibited by individuals diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by ventricular septal rupture (VSR) and to compare the prognostic outcomes of different treatment modalities.
Methods: A retrospective study on a cohort of 200 patients who were diagnosed with AMI complicated by VSR at a specialized medical facility from 2018 to 2023 was conducted. The patients were categorized into 3 different treatment groups: group A received medical management, group B underwent surgical repair, and group C underwent percutaneous device closure.

Aims: Atrial septal defect (ASD) and partial abnormal pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) are noncyanotic congenital heart defects (CHD) that produce a left-to-right shunt. This single-center retrospective study aimed to assess the hemodynamic impact of isolated ASD, isolated PAPVC, and ASD-associated PAPVC using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR).
Methods And Results: From our CMR registry (2002-2024), 110 patients were included: isolated ASD (n=64), isolated PAPVC (n=18), ASD-associated PAPVC (n=28, mostly sinus venosus septal defects).

Background: To investigate the optimization of leadless pacemaker placement and to assess its impact on heart synchronization and tricuspid regurgitation.
Results: A clinical trial was conducted involving 53 patients who underwent leadless pacemaker implantation at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine and Hangzhou First People's Hospital between March 2022 and February 2023. Implantation site localization was determined using the 18-segment method under RAO 30° imaging.
