Article Synopsis
- People with frailty have a higher risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF), and this study aimed to investigate how long-term changes in frailty influence this risk.
- The study involved over 50,000 UK Biobank participants who were assessed on their frailty levels and monitored for new cases of AF, heart failure (HF), coronary heart disease (CHD), and stroke over approximately 5 years.
- Results indicated that even small increases in frailty (ΔFI) significantly raised the risk of AF, and participants who remained frail had nearly double the risk compared to those who maintained non-frail status; however, those who improved their frailty status saw a notable decrease in risk.
Evaluating the Real-World Safety of Icosapent Ethyl Versus Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid in Nationwide US Veterans Cohort: Examining Atrial Fibrillation and Bleeding Endpoints.

Purpose: The REDUCE-IT randomized trial demonstrated a cardiovascular benefit of icosapent ethyl (IPE) but also raised potential safety signals for atrial fibrillation (AF) and serious bleeding. We aimed to evaluate the real-world safety of IPE versus mixed omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (OM-3) formulations.
Methods: This retrospective active comparator new-user cohort study compared rates of new-onset AF and major bleeding (MB) among adult new users of IPE versus OM-3 in 2020-2024 US Veterans Affairs data.
Pregnancy & cardiovascular disease: the PREG-CVD-HH registry.
Cardiovasc Diagn Ther
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, University Heart & Vascular Center, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE), Hamburg, Germany.
Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in pregnant and peripartal women in western countries. Physiological changes during pregnancy can lead to cardiovascular complications in the mother; women with pre-existing heart disease may not tolerate these changes well, increasing their susceptibility to adverse cardiovascular outcomes during pregnancy. The aim of this study is to characterize pregnancy-induced changes in cardiac function, biomarker concentrations and cardiovascular outcomes in women with CVD during pregnancy at a tertiary care hospital in Germany.

This illustrates the outcomes of patients with esophageal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiation and esophagectomy, specifically focusing on those who develop new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF). Statistically significant findings (p < 0.05, dark red) increased mortality and ventricular fibrillation, as well as trends of (p > 0.

Approximately 10 % of patients who have suffered from myocardial infarction develop new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF). Coronary artery disease implicating atrial branches has been associated with AF. The following variables have been associated with new-onset AF in the setting of acute coronary syndrome: older age, history of hypertension, history of angina, history of stroke, chronic renal failure, body mass index, no statin use, worse nutritional status, worse Killip class, admission heart rate ≥ 85 bpm, complete atrioventricular block, Glasgow prognostic score, Syntax score, CHEST score > 3, PRECISE-DAPT score ≥ 25, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40 %, increased left atrial diameter, E/E' ratio > 12, epicardial fat tissue thickness, and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow <3.
