DOI: 10.1007/s10840-022-01216-x
Abstract: Catheter ablation for the treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) has been shown to reduce arrhythmia events, electrical storm, and recurrent device therapies, and successful ablation has been associated with improved survival in patients with structural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/ehaa946.0117
Abstract: Novel echocardiographic software allows for layer-specific evaluation of myocardial deformation by 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography. Endocardial, epicardial- and whole wall global longitudinal strain (GLS) may be superior to conventional echocardiographic parameters in predicting all-cause mortality… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/circep.118.006330
Abstract: Background: We explored the hypothesis that increased cholinergic tone exerts its proarrhythmic effects in Brugada syndrome (BrS) through increasing dispersion of transmural repolarization in patients with spontaneous and drug-induced BrS. Methods: BrS and supraventricular tachycardia… read more here.
