The refractoriness of recurrent paroxysms of ventricular tachycardia to ATP therapy increases the risk of repeated ICD shocks. \u0000Despite the existence of universal recommendations for ICD programming and ATP therapy, there is a need in clinical practice for individualized ATP programming in patients refractory to nominal settings. Increasing the number of ATP series and changing algorithms enables to increase the efficiency of ATP up to 8089%. Refractoriness to standard ATP settings may be also overcome by using alternative ATP pacing algorithms (Ramp, Burst-plus, or Ramp-plus instead of Burst), changing the pacing interval, ATP sequence duration, pacing type, and even adding 12 extra stimuli, as well as using data from the previous intracardiac electrophysiological heart test. \u0000The presented clinical case of a patient with postinfarction cardiosclerosis and paroxysmal stable monomorphic VT (SM-VT) of several morphologies demonstrates that the arrhythmogenic substrate after myocardial infarction changes for a long time without new stenoses in large coronary arteries and without new episodes of acute coronary syndrome, as well as generates several different morphologies of VT from one scar (with different heart rates) and the effect on hemodynamics. The efficiency of early ATP pacing may differ for VT of various morphologies, which makes it reasonable to use alternative pacing algorithms (in addition to the standard Burst sequences recommended by the 2019 Consensus on ICD programming) and testing possible ATP algorithms during ablation of monomorphic VT, including during preventive VT ablation before ICD implantation.","PeriodicalId":33934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73696424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the general population, the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) ranges from 1% to 2%, which increases with age, that is, from 0.5% at the age of 4050 years to 5%15% at the age of 80 years [2]. HF and AF aggravate significantly each others course and mutually increase the risk of adverse outcomes [3, 4]. Moreover, the incidence of AF in patients with HF increases with increasing New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade; that is, among patients with HF of NYHA grade I, the incidence of AF is 5%, whereas among patients with HF NYHA grade IV, the AF incidence in 50% [5]. \u0000Chronic HF is a syndrome with complex pathophysiology, which is characterized by the activation of neurohumoral systems, namely, the reninangiotensinaldosterone system (RAAS), sympathetic nervous system (SNS), and insufficient activity of the natriuretic peptide (NUP) system. In the early stage of HF, i.e. asymptomatic dysfunction of the left ventricle, the activation of the SNS and RAAS plays a compensatory role aimed at maintaining cardiac output and circulatory homeostasis [6]. Moreover, the NUP system has a counter-regulatory function in relation to the RAAS and SNS, and with prolonged and excessive activation of the SNS and RAAS or with insufficient NUP system activity, imbalance occurs and HF progresses [7]. \u0000The brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and biologically inactive N-terminal fragment of BNP (NT-proBNP) are the most studied and significant in clinical practice representatives of the NUP system. BNP and NT-proBNP are secreted by cardiomyocytes of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium in response to an increase in the mechanical load and stress of the LV myocardium. NT-proBNP is widely used as a test to rule out HF in patients with dyspnea. The NUP level also correlates with the severity and prognosis in patients with an established diagnosis of HF, and studies have reported that the NUP level acts as a criterion for treatment efficiency in patients with HF [8]. NT-proBNP is a biomarker not only for HF but also for several other conditions, such as acute coronary syndrome and myocardial infarction (MI), because it is associated with an increased risk of death from all causes, regardless of age, stable effort angina grade, myocardial infarction history, and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) [9]. \u0000NT-proBNP levels can be influenced by several additional factors such as age, obesity, or glomerular filtration rate. The prognostic value of NT-proBNP is relevant in comorbid patients with AF associated HF because AF can increase NT-proBNP levels independently [10]. Given that NUP secretion depends on intracardiac hemodynamics, the NT-proBNP levels may also depend on the approach to managing AF. Tachycardia is associated with high NT-proBNP levels [11]. \u0000The rhyth","PeriodicalId":33934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias","volume":"156 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72617387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For CHF treatment and primary prevention of sudden cardiac death, a cardioverter-defibrillator with CRT (CRT-D) function was implanted. The enrolled patients were followed up prospectively for 1 year to record the endpoint, namely, hemodynamic response to CRT, assessed by a decrease in the end-systolic volume of the left ventricle by 15%. \u0000RESULTS: During the 1-year follow-up, the primary endpoint was registered in 62 (46%) patients. With a one-way logistic regression, four indicators with the highest predictive potential (p 0.05) and associated with the occurrence of the studied endpoint were identified. Based on the results of the multivariate regression analysis, a prognostic model was developed, which included three factors with the highest levels of statistical significance, namely, a history of indications of a previous correction of valvular insufficiency, QRS duration, and LBBB criteria according to Strauss. The diagnostic efficiency of the model was 73% (sensitivity, 80%; specificity, 68%). The electrocardiographic parameters of the Strauss LBBB criteria and QRS duration were independent predictors of the studied endpoint. \u0000CONCLUSIONS: The developed multivariate prognostic model may be useful in the selection of patients with CHF reduced ejection fraction for implantation of devices with CRT function; the lack of external validation limits its application in practice.","PeriodicalId":33934,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiac Arrhythmias","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76938834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of the wide QRS complex morphology has been introduced due to the complex problem of detecting atrial waves on ECG. A slow conduction index based on the ratio of the initial and terminal QRS amplitudes is one of the solutions to evaluate conduction velocity based on the surface ECG due to a significant variability of QRS morphology and real complexity of its detailed assessment. However, one of the significant limitations of this algorithm is a need to search for the RS wide complex type and randomly select an ECG lead with this morphology which can finally create a contradictory result. \u0000AIM: To evaluate a possibility of using the slow conduction index for differential diagnosis of wide QRS complex arrhythmias with left bundle branch (LBBB) morphology in any of 12-leads ECG followed by evaluation of the obtained diagnostic accuracy values. \u0000MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 280 single premature wide QRS complexes with LBBB morphology recorded during holter ECG monitoring in randomly selected 28 patients.

This review article highlights the role of major IL in the pathogenesis of AF. IL-1 had elevated levels in permanent and persistent AF patients as compared to paroxysmal AF. A study had shown a straightforward connection between the development of postoperative atrial fibrillation and IL-2 sera levels shortly after cardiopulmonary bypass graft for the first time. IL-4 has been involved in anti-inflammatory response and played no role in the contribution of AF. The elevated level of IL-6 rapidly induces atrial electrical remodeling by downregulating cardiac connexins. This change could be significantly increased the risk of AF and related complications during active inflammatory processes. Moreover, a study has shown higher IL-8 levels in permanent AF patients as compared with paroxysmal AF patients. An association was found between IL-10 gene -592A/C polymorphism and AF in Han Chinese. Recombinant human IL-11 therapy shortened atrial refractoriness and also created favorable conditions for AF by an indirect mechanism involving volume expression, stretching of atrial myocardial tissue and sodium retention. An elevated IL-12 expression was observed in the left atrial tissues of AF patients. IL-17 signaling pathway has played a significant role, and some genes could be used as potential therapeutic targets for AF. An association between the risk of AF with single nucleotide polymorphism of IL-18 and also resulted in the increased left atrial diameter and decreased left ventricular ejection fraction in AF subjects as compared to control. IL-27 genetic variants had increased the occurrence of AF.
