Risk factors for the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation: a meta-analysis.

Egypt Heart J

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, Lianyungang No 1 People's Hospital, No. 6 East Zhenhua Road, Haizhou District, Lianyungang, 222061, Jiangsu, China.

Background: The rate at which atrial fibrillation (AF) patients experience a return of symptoms after catheter ablation is significant, and there are multiple risk factors involved. This research intends to perform a meta-analysis to explore the risk factors connected to the recurrence of AF in patients following catheter ablation.

Methods: The PubMed, Cochrane Library, WOS, Embase, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases were explored for studies from January 1, 2000 to August 10, 2021, and research meeting the established inclusion requirements was chosen.

Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia in Patients With Biopsy-Proven Myocarditis.

JACC Asia

December 2024

Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College, National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases, Fuwai Hospital, Beijing, China.

Background: Catheter ablation (CA) is increasingly recognized as an effective treatment for ventricular tachycardia (VT) in myocarditis patients, although current evidence is based on less robust data.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to confirm CA's efficacy in reducing VT recurrence and to identify arrhythmic risk factors in biopsy-proven myocarditis patients.

Methods: In this dual-center, retrospective study, we included 50 patients with biopsy-proven myocarditis and VT.

Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is characterized by transient left ventricular dysfunction, often triggered by emotional or physical stress. It usually presents with clinical features similar to acute coronary syndrome, making its occurrence following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) challenging to diagnose and treat.

Case Summary: A 67-year-old man with ischaemic heart disease and recurrent angina underwent elective PCI of the right coronary artery.

Duodromic atrioventricular reentry tachycardia: a case report of a rare adenosine insensitive supraventricular tachycardia.

Eur Heart J Case Rep

January 2025

Arrhythmology, Pacing and Electrophysiology Unit, Cardiology Service, Santa Marta Hospital, Central Lisbon Hospital University Centre, R. de Santa Marta 50, Lisboa 1169-024, Portugal.

Background: Accessory pathways (AP) are associated with an increased risk of atrioventricular reentry tachycardia (AVRT), presenting as a wide QRS tachycardia if the mechanism is antidromic. Rarely, AVRT may not respond to adenosine, suggesting a duodromic mechanism if the patient has multiple APs. Herein, we present a case of a male patient with multiple APs, wide QRS complex tachycardia, and resistance to adenosine.
