Objective: The aim: To study the association of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and polymorphisms rs1801253 and rs1801252 of the ADRB1 gene with the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: The study included 179 patients which underwent clinical investigation, echocardiography, elektrokardiography. The examined were divided into groups with a low (110 people) and high risk (69 people) of SCD. The distribution of allelic polymorphisms was investigated with polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Results: Results: All patients of group with high-risk cardiovascular mortality showed a decrease in heart rate variability (RV) due to an increase in sympathetic activity (p=0.013). Also, in the group of patients with LVH, predictors of sudden cardiac death and arrhythmogenic substrate, were observed. The variability of the allele C1165G rs1801253 of the ADRB1 gene was associated with an increased risk (2.55-fold increase) of SCD and LVH. Also, the associations of polymorphic locus A145G (rs1801252) of the ADRB1 gene proved the presence of a permanent difference for the "risky" allele A in patients with a high risk of SCD.

Conclusion: Conclusions: It was set the probable association of alleles rs1801253 (C1165G) and rs1801252 (A145G) ADRB1 at the patients with a high risk of SCD compared to the control group.

Background: Data on the occurrence of unexpected sudden cardiac death (SCD) in different seasons are limited.

Methods: All unexpected sudden death victims have to undergo medico-legal autopsy obligated by the Finnish law. Consecutive series of all unexpected autopsied SCD victims (n=5,869) were prospectively collected from the geographically defined area in the Northern Finland during a twenty years period from 1998 to 2017.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the patterns of healthcare system utilization before sudden cardiac death (SCD) in Taiwan, and compare the patterns between patients treated at medical centers and non-center hospitals.

Methods: This descriptive multicenter retrospective cohort study recruited adult, nontraumatic SCD patients who were admitted to the National Taiwan University Hospital and its affiliated hospitals between January 2017 and December 2022. Healthcare utilization patterns, such as outpatient visits, emergency department (ED) visits, short-term ED returns, and hospitalizations, were analyzed during the weeks prior to SCD.

Vascular calcification(VC) significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular events, leading to thickening of the myocardium and arteries, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and potentially triggering myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death. Although VC is a reversible process, there are currently no methods or medications in clinical practice that can completely reverse or cure it. The current treatment strategies primarily focus on slowing the progression of VC and exploring new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, making the identification of early diagnostic markers for VC particularly important.
