Background: Long-term exercise training induces various morphological adaptations in the heart. Although concentric left ventricular (LV) geometry is occasionally observed in young athletes, its clinical significance is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of young rugby athletes with concentric LV geometry and considered its clinical implications.

Objective And Rationale: Small studies have shown that the QT interval follows a circadian rhythm. This finding has never been confirmed in a large real-world hospital population and the clinical meaning of disrupted rhythmicity remains unknown.
Methods: In this cohort study, all consecutive adult patients with at least one 12-lead ECG acquired between 1991 and 2021 were considered.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated a shift to decentralized clinical trials. We present the potential feasibility of this approach from a phase 1 pharmacokinetic (PK) trial.
Methods: Healthy adults (18-55 years) with a body mass index of 19.

Background And Aims: Current heart failure (HF) risk stratification strategies require comprehensive clinical evaluation. In this study, artificial intelligence (AI) applied to electrocardiogram (ECG) images was examined as a strategy to predict HF risk.
Methods: Across multinational cohorts in the Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS), UK Biobank (UKB), and Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil), individuals without baseline HF were followed for the first HF hospitalization.

This paper reviews the literature on assessing electrical dyssynchrony for patient selection in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The guideline-recommended electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for CRT are QRS duration and morphology, established through inclusion criteria in large CRT trials. However, both QRS duration and LBBB morphology have their shortcomings.
