SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy and Risk of Incident Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With HFpEF and Type 2 Diabetes
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexists with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction, particularly in patients with Type 2 Diabetes, due to shared cardiometabolic and inflammatory mechanisms. Sodium-glucose cotrans...

Failure of P-Wave Duration as a Surrogate Marker for Left Atrial Enlargement in African Americans: Insights from the Jackson Heart Study
Introduction: Electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for left atrial enlargement (LAE) serve as clinical surrogates for structural and hemodynamic left atrial (LA) overload. Their diagnostic performance compared to echocardiography remains ...

Association of 24-Hour Anion Gap Difference with Short-Term Mortality in Critically Ill Patients with Heart Failure and Infection
Introduction High anion gap (AG) indicates poor prognosis in critical illness. However, the prognostic significance of dynamic early AG changes in patients with concurrent heart failure and infection remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate...

Semaglutide in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction and Obesity: The Gap Between Discussion and Use
Introduction: Semaglutide improves symptoms and physical function in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and obesity. Whether discussion of treatment is accompanied by its use in routine care is less well understood. M...

Left Atrial Appendage Closure or Medical Therapy in Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Background: The use of anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation is often limited by the significant risk of bleeding, and difficulties maintaining consistent adherence over time. These challenges have led to the development o...
