The clinical diagnostic value of right-to-left shunt in cryptogenic stroke under right heart contrast echocardiography: a retrospective case-control study.

Background: About 30% of ischemic strokes do not have a clear cause, which is called cryptogenic stroke (CS). Increasing evidence suggests a potential link between CS and right-to-left shunt (RLS). RLS may lead to CS via paradoxical embolic mechanism.

Background: Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a rare conduction disorder in athletes associated with ventricular dyssynchrony, which can lead to left ventricular systolic dysfunction and exercise intolerance. Inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) is characterized by an excessive heart rate (HR) that is not related to physiological needs, often resulting in reduced exercise capacity. Managing these conditions in athletes can be challenging, as standard treatments like beta-blockers and ivabradine, while effective in controlling HR, are described to be associated with a reduction in maximal exercise performance.

Endurance exercise is associated with increased life duration and improved life quality. Paradoxically, high exercise intensity is also associated with increased coronary artery calcification (CAC) and a small but significant increased risk of adverse cardiac events during exercise. The mechanisms underlying the development of CAC during prolonged high-intensity endurance exercise are unknown.

Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA.
Aims: The relationship between body mass index (BMI) and clinical outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease, including acute heart failure (AHF) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI), remains debated. This study investigates the association between BMI and clinical outcomes within the PARADISE-MI cohort, while also evaluating the impact of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) versus angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) treatment on this relationship.
Methods And Results: The analysis included 5589 patients from the PARADISE-MI study with available baseline BMI data.
Specificities of Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure in Women.

Substantial evidence from previous clinical studies, randomized trials, and patient registries confirms the existence of significant differences in cardiac morphology, pathophysiology, prevalence of specific coronary artery disease (CAD), and clinical course of myocardial infarction (MI) between men and women. The aim of this review is to investigate the impact of sex or gender on the development and clinical course of MI, the mechanisms and features of left ventricular (LV) remodeling, and heart failure (HF). The main sex-related difference in post-MI LV remodeling is adverse LV dilatation in males versus concentric LV remodeling or concentric LV hypertrophy in females.
