DOI: 10.1001/jamaophthalmol.2017.5466
Abstract: Importance Idiopathic disease is the most frequent diagnosis in a uveitis clinic. The need to distinguish sarcoidosis from idiopathic uveitis is controversial. However, cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis can be life-threatening. Objective To report a series… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joa3.12084
Abstract: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a noncaseating granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Lifelong immunosuppressive therapy, most frequently using corticosteroids, is a standard therapy to control hypersensitivity of immune reactions and prevent inflammation. However, it sometimes causes… read more here.

Outcomes after transvenous defibrillator implantation in cardiac sarcoidosis: A systematic review
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Arrhythmia"
DOI: 10.1002/joa3.12753
Abstract: Sarcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disorder associated with ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) and sudden death in the context of cardiac involvement. Guidelines advocate implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator (ICD) implantation in specific subcohorts, but there is a paucity of… read more here.
