We present a case of a young man with a new-onset supraventricular arrhythmia accompanied by polyuria and natriuresis with subsequent renal salt-wasting causing hypovolemic hyponatremia. Resolution of the electrolyte imbalance occurred only after successful atrial flutter ablation.

Background: Pregnancy increases the risk of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) due to physiological changes. This study reviews the management of SVT in pregnant patients in the emergency department (ED).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 15 pregnant patients with SVT treated at Shenzhen Second People's Hospital ED from 2015 to 2023.

Cardiovascular involvements are one of the most important and threatening problems of SARS-CoV-2 infection and can cause a wide range of clinical manifestations in children. Therefore, a review of previous studies is necessary to prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular complications and reduce the risk of mortality in this age group of patients. To investigate the cardiovascular complications in children with COVID-19, international authoritative databases including PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Persian databases were searched using the main concepts, all articles were published between January 2020 and November 2022.

Background: Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is generally associated with life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Supraventricular arrhythmias are an accepted cause of SCD in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and complex congenital heart disease. However, the role of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATAs) in SCD in patients with structurally normal hearts is unclear.

Background: IAH0968 is an afucosylated anti-epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) monoclonal antibody which improved the activity of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and superior anti-tumor efficacy.
Methods: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), a single institution, phase Ia/Ib study was undertaken, using 3 + 3 design. The primary endpoints were safety, tolerability and preliminary clinical activity.

Complex ventricular tachycardias involving the fascicular system (fascicular ventricular tachycardias [FVTs]) can be challenging. In this review, we describe our approach to the diagnosis and ablation of these arrhythmias with 10 illustrative cases that involve (1) differentiation from supraventricular tachycardia; (2) assessment for atypical bundle branch reentry and other interfascicular FVTs; (3) examination of P1/P2 activation sequences in sinus rhythm, pacing, and tachycardia; and (4) entrainment techniques to establish the tachycardia mechanism and aid circuit localization. To summarize, 5 cases had prior ablation with 2 previously misdiagnosed as supraventricular tachycardia.
