Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with COVID-19 and their risk factors. Methods: In this retrospective observational study, we included 288 consecutive COVID-19 patients who were admitted to the emergency department. Patients with a history of old arrhythmia, including atrial fibrillation, flutter, and atrial tachycardia, were excluded. Electrocardiographic data were collected in the first 24 hours of hospitalization, and hematological biomarkers were measured. Results: Arrhythmia occurred in 23.6% of patients and 61.8% of ICU patients. Its prevalence was significantly higher in ICU patients compared to ward patients. Arrhythmias were categorized as atrial fibrillation (11.8%), ventricular tachycardia (4.2%), premature ventricular contraction (2.7%), and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (2.4%). Gender, age, and lab tests were not associated with the incidence of arrhythmia in COVID-19 patients. Conclusions: Arrhythmia was observed in 23.6% of patients with COVID-19 and in 61.8% of ICU patients with COVID-19. No risk factor was found for cardiac arrhythmia in COVID-19 patients.","PeriodicalId":502770,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141273742","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 potential benefits of AI-assisted arrhythmia prognosis, early screening, and improved accuracy in arrhythmia classification are discussed. Evidence Acquisition: Artificial intelligence methods are a new way to classify different types of arrhythmias. For example, deep learning (DL) algorithms, including long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, convolutional neural networks (CNN), CNN-based autoencoders (AE), and convolutional recurrent neural networks (CRNN), have been extensively utilized for ECG signal analysis and arrhythmia detection. Results: This study explores different DL techniques for classifying arrhythmias. The two-dimensional (2D) CNN model achieved an accuracy of 97.42% in classifying five different arrhythmias. After classifying five types of ECG signals, an accuracy of 99.53% was achieved by the CNN-based AE and transfer learning (TL) models. The CNN-Bi-LSTM model achieved an accuracy of 98.0% in categorizing five categories of ECG signals. The CNN+LSTM model achieved an accuracy of 98.24% in classifying five classes of arrhythmias. The CNN-support vector machine (SVM) classifier model demonstrated an accuracy of 98.64% in detecting seventeen classes of heartbeats. The results indicated that the CNN-based AE and TL models perform exceptionally well with high accuracy in detecting ECG signals. Conclusions: The present study demonstrates the growing interest in utilizing DL for ECG signal detection in medical and healthcare applications over the past decade. Deep learning models have been shown to outperform experienced cardiologists, delivering state-of-the-art and more accurate results.","PeriodicalId":502770,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140490314","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 Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (SYNTAX) score explains the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) and guides to an appropriate treatment strategy. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the correlation between GRACE and SYNTAX scores. Methods: A total of 101 ACS patients were recruited in this case-control study. Coronary angiography (CA) was performed for all of the participants. Correlation analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between GRACE risk and SYNTAX angiographic scores. Results: A total of 83 men and 18 women who had ACS with an average age of 57.2 ± 11.6 years (minimum of 33 and maximum of 89 years) were investigated. The SYNTAX angiographic score and the GRACE risk score for participants of this study were 15.09 ± 5.87 and 114.47 ± 26.2, respectively. A strong positive correlation, which was statistically significant, was demonstrated between the GRACE risk score and the SYNTAX angiographic score (r = 0.867, P < 0.001) Conclusions: Our findings point out a significant strong positive correlation exists between GRACE risk score and SYNTAX angiographic score in patients with unstable angina (UA), ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).","PeriodicalId":502770,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140495786","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}

Objectives: Here, the association of ejection fraction (EF), as a parameter of systolic function, with TFC and STR was assessed in patients with STEMI who underwent PPCI. Methods: Ejection fraction was evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography using Simpson’s biplane method before PPCI in the first 24 hours after the admission of STEMI patients. Also, STR and TFC were assessed in all patients after PPCI. Then, the association of EF with STR and TFC was examined before and after the operation. Results: STEMI patients with STR less or greater than 50% were comparable in terms of clinical and demographic characteristics and laboratory indices. Our results showed a weak inverse correlation between EF before PPCI and TFC (r = -0.2336, P = 0.0002). However, there was a strong inverse correlation between EF after PPCI and TFC (P < 0.0001, r = -0.3137). The results of correlation analysis showed that the mean EF (pre- and post-PPCI) was significantly higher in patients with STR of ≥50% compared to those with STR < 50%. Conclusions: The results of this study showed that EF after PPCI, as an echocardiographic indicator, could reflect the status of cardiac and microvascular perfusion. We also found that cardiac status on ECG could better reflect EF.","PeriodicalId":502770,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139128756","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}
