BACKGROUND: The characteristics and clinical outcomes associated with sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation (VT/VF) in Japanese acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients remain unknown.Methods and Results: Consecutive AMI patients (n=1,941) transferred to the Hirosaki University Hospital and treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 12 h of onset were retrospectively studied. The incidence of VT/VF during hospitalization was 8.3%, and 75% of cases occurred by the end of PCI...

BACKGROUND: Although right ventricular (RV) enlargement may affect RV diastolic dysfunction assessed by end-diastolic forward flow (EDFF) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), EDFF may also be modified by left ventricular (LV) hemodynamics. We hypothesized that EDFF is affected by LV hemodynamics, not limited to RV diastolic stiffening.Methods and Results: Among 145 consecutive patients with repaired TOF who underwent catheterization, hemodynamic properties in 47 with consistent EDFF and 75 without EDFF were analyzed...

BACKGROUND: This study assessed the prognostic importance of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentrations for clinical events after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF).Methods and Results: We enrolled 1,750 consecutive patients undergoing initial AF ablation whose baseline BNP data were available from a large-scale multicenter observational cohort (TRANQUILIZE-AF Registry). The prognostic impact of BNP concentration on clinical outcomes, including recurrent tachyarrhythmias and a composite of heart failure (HF) hospitalization or cardiac death, was evaluated...

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most diagnosed arrhythmia in clinical settings. The fatty liver index (FLI) is a marker of liver steatosis with potential cardiovascular implications. This study investigated whether FLI could predict the risk of AF.Methods and Results: We used data from the Suita Study, a Japanese population-based prospective cohort study. A total of 2,346 men and 3,543 women, aged 30-84 years, without prevalent AF were included and followed up...

BACKGROUND: Polypharmacy was reported to be associated with major bleeding in various populations. However, there are no data on polypharmacy and its association with bleeding in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods and Results: Among 12,291 patients in the CREDO-Kyoto PCI Registry Cohort-3, we evaluated the number of medications at discharge and compared major bleeding, defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium Type 3 or 5 bleeding, across tertiles (T1-3) of the number of medications...

BACKGROUND: Early intervention in prehospital settings is important for treating patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Emergency medical technicians (EMTs) are the essential first responders who treat these patients, and their current attitudes towards electrocardiograms (ECGs) have not been identified. This study investigated the awareness of EMTs of ECGs to shorten hospital arrival time, improving patient prognosis.Methods and Results: An anonymous questionnaire survey, with 27 statements about ECG and ACS response, was administered to 395 EMTs...

BACKGROUND: Acute aortic dissection (AAD) has high morbidity and a high fatality rate for a cardiovascular disease. Recent studies suggested that the incidence of AAD is increasing. However, the actual incidence and mortality rates of AAD are not well known. This study investigated the current epidemiology of AAD within the Yatsushiro medical jurisdictional area.Methods and Results: A population-based review of patients with AAD was performed in a geographically well-defined area...

BACKGROUND: Little is known about clinical or sociodemographic factors that influence health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD).Methods and Results: We conducted a nationwide prospective cross-sectional multicenter study at 4 large ACHD centers in Japan. From November 2016 to June 2018, we enrolled 1,223 ACHD patients; 1,025 patients had an HRQoL score. Patients completed a questionnaire survey, including sociodemographic characteristics, and the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36)...
