Background: This case report outlines the presentation of an emerging complication arising from left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP).
Case Summary: A 43-year-old male with no history of cardiac problems experienced recurrent episodes of syncope with no prodromal symptoms. During monitoring in the emergency department, the patient underwent an episode of asystole, leading to LBBAP implantation. The procedure encountered technical challenges, resulting in an interventricular septal hematoma and subsequent ventricular arrhythmias. Despite initial concerns, conservative management led to resolution, demonstrated through echocardiographic follow-ups.
Discussion: This report underscores the significance of ventricular arrhythmias as indicators of interventricular septal hematoma, providing insights into its diagnosis, management, and implications for LBBAP procedures.

Lipoprotein(a) and the risk of type I cardiorenal syndrome in patients with coronary artery disease: A retrospective clinical study.
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc
February 2025
Shaoxing Central Hospital, No. 1 Huayu Road, Keqiao District, Shaoxing Province, 312030, China.
Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between lipoprotein(a) (Lp-a) and coronary artery disease (CAD) complicated by type I cardiorenal syndrome (CRS).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with CAD admitted to the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Shaoxing Central Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022, with chief complaints of "chest distress and dyspnea." Patient demographic data, biochemical indicators (including blood lipid levels and serum creatinine), cardiac function markers (such as pro-brain natriuretic peptide, pro-BNP), echocardiography, and coronary angiography results were collected.
Assessment of left ventricular systolic function using a non-invasive index of myocardial work in amateur marathon runners.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on the impact of marathon running on cardiac function in amateur athletes, highlighting the risk of heart fatigue and structural changes like thickening of the ventricular septum.
- It involved 35 amateur runners and 33 healthy controls, using a novel method called the left ventricular pressure-strain loop to analyze heart performance.
- Results indicated that amateur runners had higher global wasted work (GWW) and lower global work efficiency (GWE), with specific parameters showing potential for early detection of cardiac issues.
Smoking and Health Profiles of Hypertensive Patients with COVID-19: An Exploratory Study of Key Physiological Markers.
J Clin Med
November 2024
Pneumology Department, University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 200349 Craiova, Romania.
: Smoking and hypertension are major contributors to cardiovascular diseases, with smoker hypertensives typically presenting with exacerbated health risks. These factors are associated with COVID-19 aggravation, but their cumulative impact in the context of this disease remains understudied. Our hypothesis was that hypertensive smokers display a more vulnerable health profile (versus non-smokers) upon hospital admission for COVID-19.

Objective: To investigate the effect of Tongmai Hypoglycemic Capsule (THC) on myocardium injury in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) rats.
Methods: A total of 24 Sprague Dawley rats were fed for 4 weeks with high-fat and high-sugar food and then injected with streptozotocin intraperitoneally for the establishment of the DCM model. In addition, 6 rats with normal diets were used as the control group.
