Heart rate and heart rate variability parameters provide important information on sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of autonomous nervous system. These parameters are usually extracted from electrocardiograms often measured between two electrodes and called an ECG lead. Besides systems intended only for heart rate measurement, ECG measurement devices employ several well-known lead systems including the standard 12-lead system, EASI lead system and Mason-Likar systems. Therefore, the first step is to select the appropriate lead for heart rate variability analysis. The appropriate electrode locations for single-lead measurement systems or the preferred measurement lead in multi-lead measurement are choices that the user needs to make when the heart rate variability is of interest. However, it has not been addressed in the literature, if the lead selection has an effect on the obtained HRV parameters. In this work, we characterized the amount of deviation of heart rate and heart rate variability parameters extracted from nine ECG leads, six from EASI leads and three modified limb leads. The results showed a deviation of 2.04, 2.88, 2.06 and 3.45 ms in SDNN, rMSSD, SD1 and SD2, respectively. A relative difference up to 10% was observed in HRV parameters for single signal frames. Additionally, the discrimination of the R-peaks by amplitudes was evaluated. The A-S lead appeared to have the best performance in all the tests.

Novartis Singapore Pte Ltd, Singapore. Electronic address:
Objectives: This analysis evaluated the cost-effectiveness of inclisiran plus standard of care (SoC; comprising statins, ezetimibe, and fenofibrate) in primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia from a Singapore healthcare system perspective. Inclisiran + SoC was separately compared with SoC, alirocumab + SoC, and evolocumab + SoC.
Methods: A lifetime Markov model in the United Kingdom (UK) was adapted to the Singapore setting.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, Maebashi, Japan. Electronic address:
Background: Despite increasing awareness in general practice, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains under-diagnosed in the community due to diagnostic difficulties. Dedicated dyspnea clinics are responsible for diagnosing HFpEF and efficient referral from primary care physicians is the key to enhance its role.
Methods: This retrospective analysis was performed to assess the effectiveness of a one-year collaborative project between our dyspnea clinic and the Maebashi Medical Association.

Background: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous entity including patients with different phenotypes of near normal, normal, and supernormal left ventricular (LV) function.
Objectives: To assess the value of resting LV elastance (also known as force) with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to identify HFpEF phenotypes.
Methods: In a prospective, observational, multicenter study, 2380 HFpEF patients were recruited from July 2016 to May 2024.

IRCCS Centro Cardiologico Monzino, Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, 20138 Milan, Italy; Department of Biomedical, Surgical and Dental Sciences, University of Milan, 20100 Milan, Italy.
Purpose: To compare the overall survival and the risk of all-cause and heart failure-specific hospitalization in nonagenarian patients hospitalized for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or conservative treatment.
Methods: Population-based retrospective cohort study based on healthcare utilization databases of the Italian region of Lombardy. The cohort included all nonagenarians hospitalized for AS between 2017 and 2021, who underwent TAVI within 90 days from first diagnosis or conservative treatment.
