Objective Frailty is a known risk factor for adverse outcomes after cardiac interventions.
However, the extent to which it increases the likelihood of adverse outcomes in heart failure …

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited ion channel channelopathy predisposing to
ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Originally believed to be predominantly …

A comprehensive understanding of the interaction between triggers and electrical substrates
leading to ventricular fibrillation (VF) and sudden cardiac arrest is lacking, and electrical …

Sinus node dysfunction may be either transient (reversible/physiological) due to the
involvement of the autonomic nervous system or pharmaceuticals, or chronic due to …

Background His-bundle pacing (HBP) is a physiological alternative to right ventricular
pacing (RVP). The outcomes of HBP in patients with longstanding atrioventricular block …

Abstract Aims Cardiac involvement in Fabry disease (FD) occurs prior to left ventricular
hypertrophy (LVH) and is characterized by low myocardial native T1 with sphingolipid …

summary Purpose The prevalence of frailty among patients with heart failure is about 45%.
Frailty may result in patients' functional decline, falls, disability, and decreased quality of life …

Tobacco cigarette smoking is associated with increased sudden death risk, perhaps through
adverse effects on ventricular repolarization. The effect of electronic (e-) cigarettes on …

Annually, approximately 17 million people die from cardiovascular diseases worldwide, half
of them suddenly. The most common direct cause of sudden cardiac death is ventricular …

Introduction Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) has recently been reported to be a
new physiological pacing strategy with clinical feasibility and safety. The present study aims …
