Neurofibromatosis type I (NF1) is a genetic disorder characterized by the tumor’s development in nerve tissue. Complications of NF1 can include pigmented lesions, skin neurofibromas, and heart problems such as...
Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy (S-IVL) is widely used during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of calcified coronary arteries. Ventricular capture beats during S-IVL are common but arrhythmias are ...
The coexistence of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) usually exhibits poor prognosis. However, there are few contemporary data available on the burden of cardiac arrhythmia...
During normal sinus rhythm, atrial depolarization is conducted from right atrium to left atrium through Bachmann’s bundle, and a normal P wave axis which is measured on the frontal plane is between 0º and + 75...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) often indicates a poor prognosis.
Research shows women experience higher mortality than men after cardiac surgery but information on sex-differences during postoperative recovery is limited. Days alive and out of hospital (DAH) combines death,...

Cardiovascular disorders (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Lower- and middle-income countries (LMICs), such as Bangladesh, are also affected by several types of CVDs, such as heart failure and s...
Atrial fibrillation is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia. Electrical cardioversion, a well-established part of the rhythm control strategy, is probably underused in community settings. Here, we d...
One of the pathogenic causes of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA), a dangerous vascular condition that can cause aortic rupture, is autoimmune disorders. Currently, immune cell clustering is becoming more and mor...
