Background: Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) is widely performed in routine clinical practice. Achieving LBBAP requires deep insertion of the lead into the interventricular septum. LBBAP may be challenging in patients with a history of open-heart surgery (OHS) because of myocardial fibrosis associated with surgical trauma.

L-transposition of the great arteries (L-TGA) represents a spectrum of congenital heart defects (CHD) associated with atrioventricular block (AVB). However, the incidence and prognosis of postoperative AVB among patients with variants of L-TGA is uncertain. Assess the incidence and risk factors for postoperative AVB requiring permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation for pediatric patients with L-TGA undergoing cardiac surgery.

Clinic of Hematology, University Clinical Centre of Serbia, Serbia; Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade, Serbia. Electronic address:

Targeted therapies, consisting of Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) or BCL-2 inhibitors, are the mainstay of contemporary treatments for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The most common adverse effects (AEs) of BTKis are fatigue, bruising, infection, hematological and cardiovascular AEs. While AEs during treatment are usually mild (grades 1 and 2), grade 3 and 4 AEs have been detected in some patients, necessitating additional medical care and temporary or permanent drug discontinuation.

Background: Conduction disturbances are common after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and frequently require permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). Data regarding its impact on mortality and morbidity are conflicting. This study aims to assess the impact of PPI before or within 30 days after TAVI on mortality and health-related Quality of Life (QoL) during the first year after TAVI.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) often coexist and impact morbidity and mortality. There is limited knowledge on the association of AF subtypes with HF according to sex.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore sex-specific associations between AF subtypes and subsequent HF, identifying HF risk factors in participants with AF, and exploring the combined impact on mortality.
