Background Initial studies of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) have demonstrated impressive efficacy. Follow-up analyses found mixed results and the role SBRT VT remains unclear. We performed palliative, cardiac radio ablation in patients with to medical management. Methods Arrhythmogenic regions were targeted by combining computed tomography imaging electrophysiologic mapping collaboration from a oncologist, electrophysiologist...
Abstract Objectives Compare in‐hospital outcomes of patients treated with either mechanical thrombectomy (MT) or catheter directed lysis (CDL) in treatment acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods This is a multicenter, retrospective cohort study undergoing MT CDL for PE between 2014 and 2021. The primary outcome was the composite death, significant bleed, vascular complication, need support post‐procedure. Secondary included individual components addition to blood transfusions, invasive...
To compare retinal microvascular density among women with ischemia no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) and without dysfunction (CMD). Cross-sectional study. Patients myocardial INOCA often have CMD, possibly indicating systemic vascular dysfunction. While microvasculature relates to many cardiovascular risk factors, its link CMD remains unknown. Women (N = 18) function testing were enrolled classified into non-CMD groups, defined as flow reserve (CFR) <2.5 in response adenosine....
Discordant and concordant left bundle branch block (dLBBB/cLBBB) are characterized by negative or positive T waves, respectively, in lateral leads. We assessed if the two morphologies associated with different clinical status prognosis patients heart failure (HF) current indication to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT)/CRT-Defibrillator (CRT-D). Baseline electrocardiograms of 1270 LBBB Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial–Cardiac cohort were analysed identify dLBBB...
Background Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a disease of unknown etiology that causes stenosis, aneurysmal dilatation, and dissection vascular beds. Known to affect medium-sized arteries, FMD not typically considered the aorta. We tested hypothesis aortic size in abnormal compared with age- sex-matched controls. Methods Results Medical records computed tomography angiography images were reviewed female patients diagnosis who seen medicine clinic at Emory Healthcare. Aortic dimensions...
Introduction: Patients with myocardial ischemia but no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) often have microvascular dysfunction (CMD), which may be a manifestation of systemic vascular dysfunction. The state retinal microvasculature is linked to variety cardiovascular risk factors, the relationship between CMD and unknown. Research Question: Among individuals INOCA, are changes reflective CMD? Aim: To evaluate in women comparing those without CMD. Methods: Women INOCA (N=18) who had...

Introduction: Women with myocardial ischemia but no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) often have microvascular dysfunction, a condition associated adverse cardiovascular outcomes. INOCA patients recurrent chest pain and reduced quality of life, therapeutic strategies to treat are poorly defined. In this study we used mixed methods gain an understanding their symptom patterns burden clustered other co-morbid conditions, while considering overall experience having chronic angina....
Introduction: Myocardial ischemia with no obstructive coronary arteries (INOCA) is more common in women and associated adverse cardiovascular outcomes. INOCA patients have recurrent chest pain reduced quality of life, therapeutic strategies are poorly defined. Central nervous system factors can promote maintain spontaneous clinical pain. We explored central sensitization INOCA. Methods: Twenty-nine diagnosed based on angiography were enrolled. Baseline demographics, risk factors, angina...
