DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14645
Abstract: Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) is characterized by increased wall thickness, diastolic dysfunction and progressive heart failure symptoms. The disease may infiltrate the conduction system leading to conduction disturbances requiring an implantation of permanent cardiac pacemaker… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joa3.12479
Abstract: Elderly patients having a permanent pacemaker frequently have atrial remodeling. We examined the association between routine biomarkers and atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients receiving a dual‐chamber pacemaker for sinus node disease (SND) or second‐/third‐degree atrioventricular… read more here.
