The Southern Brazilian Registry of Atrial Fibrillation (SBR-AF Registry): Predictors of Atrial Arrhythmia Recurrence after First-Time Catheter Ablation.
Arq Bras Cardiol
January 2025
Serviço de Arritmia Cardíaca, Hospital SOS Cardio, Florianópolis, SC - Brasil.
Background: Treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) with catheter ablation (CA) has evolved significantly. However, real-world data on long-term outcomes are limited, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
Objective: This multicenter prospective cohort of consecutive patients aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of first-time CA for AF in Southern Brazil from 2009 to 2024.
Impact of cardiac position, morphology and operative technique on long-term fontan outcomes in heterotaxy.
Eur J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, The Labatt Family Heart Centre, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the outcomes of heterotaxy patients undergone the Fontan operation, focusing on morphological features and surgical techniques.
Methods: Eighty-two consecutive heterotaxy patients who underwent the Fontan operation from 1985 to 2021 were compared to 150 patients with tricuspid atresia (TA) and 144 patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model were used to analyze transplant-free survival and predictor of outcomes.
The monocyte-to-HDL-cholesterol ratio predicts new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with acute STEMI.

January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Faculty of Medicine, Mugla Sitki Kocman University, Mugla, Turkey.
Objective: Newly diagnosed AF (NOAF) associated with acute STEMI holds significant relevance in clinical practice. This study seeks to assess the role of the monocyte to HDL-C ratio (MHR) in predicting NOAF in these patients.
Methods: Between July 2017 and May 2018, 663 patients who underwent primary PCI for STEMI were retrospectively analyzed.
"Breaking the Bleed" Spontaneous Hemorrhage in an Emphysematous Bulla Complicated by Anticoagulation: A Case Report.

Internal Medicine, Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center, Toledo, USA.
We present a case of spontaneous hemorrhage in an emphysematous bulla, complicated by anticoagulation. Bullous emphysema is a well-recognized complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and a rare manifestation is hemorrhage into preexisting pulmonary bullae. A 69-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department with hemoptysis, shortness of breath, and productive cough.

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)
January 2025
Department of Endocrinology, Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS), Srinagar, J&K, India.
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and myocardial and valvular calcifications, leading to increased mortality rates. While the association between PHPT and diastolic dysfunction has been well-documented, data on systolic dysfunction and its reversal after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX) remains limited.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of PTX on cardiovascular parameters, especially systolic dysfunction, in PHPT patients using conventional and speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE).
