Anticoagulation is the mainstay of stroke prevention in appropriate patients with atrial fibrillation. Due to advances in pharmacotherapy the anticoagulants used for this purpose have evolved significantly over the past decades with the aim of optimizing effectiveness while minimizing bleeding risks. Though significant improvements have been made toward this goal, bleeding risk remains the major concern with these therapies.

Introduction Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is of diagnostic and prognostic value in a range of cardiopulmonary conditions. Current methods for evaluating CMR studies are laborious and time-consuming, contributing to delays for patients. As the demand for CMR increases, there is a growing need to automate this process. The application of artificial intelligence (AI) to CMR is promising, but the evaluation of these tools in clinical practice has been limited.

Edwards Lifesciences ended last week with the biggest structural interventions launch that we’ve seen in some time, announcing the FDA approval of its EVOQUE transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement system (TTVR). The EVOQUE is the first TTVR therapy to receive FDA approval, following its European CE Mark in October. The TTVR system is indicated for patients with severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) who haven’t responded to optimal medical therapy.

Background Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a frequent complication that may increase morbidity and mortality risk following cardiac surgery. The systemic immune–inflammation index (SII) is an emerging biomarker that provides an integrated measure of inflammation by incorporating neutrophil, lymphocyte, and platelet counts. Recent studies have reported associations between elevated SII and increased POAF risk; however, significant heterogeneity exists regarding its predictive efficacy

Abstract The digital revolution provides many opportunities for researchers to develop and evolve data collection methods. A key process in qualitative research data collection is the transcription of interviews, focus groups or fieldwork notes. Transcription is the process of converting audio, video or notes into accessible written format for qualitative data analysis.

Mitochondria-associated membrane (MAM) serve as crucial contact sites between mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recent research has highlighted the significance of MAM, which serve as a platform for various protein molecules, in processes such as calcium signaling, ATP production, mitochondrial structure and function, and autophagy. Cardiac diseases caused by any reason can lead to changes in myocardial structure and function, significantly impacting human health.

Background Carotid artery atherosclerosis is a major cause of ischemic stroke, and ischemic stroke is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Unfortunately, the reason for the build-up of atherosclerosis plaque is unknown. The miRNA-29c was reported to promote the phenotype transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in diabetes mice, eventually leading to plaque formation and bleeding.

A case of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)-associated myocarditis with reversible advanced atrioventricular block (AVB) was reported. We innovatively used active fixation lead connected to an external device for prolonged temporary pacing until atrioventricular conduction recovered. Invasive electrophysiology studies were performed to evaluate atrioventricular conduction in detail.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to revolutionize how science, and biomedical research in particular, are done. With AI, problem solving and complex tasks using massive data sets can be performed at a much higher rate and dimensionality level compared to humans. With the ability to handle huge data sets and self-learn, AI is already being exploited in drug design, drug repurposing, toxicology, and material identification.
