Dronedarone vs class Ic agents for early AF: Protocol for the DRIVE-AF randomized clinical trial

Hyoung Seok Lee, Yeji Kim, Ki Yung Boo, Ha Young Choi et autres

Background Early rhythm control is crucial in atrial fibrillation (AF), yet clinical equipoise remains regarding the optimal initial antiarrhythmic drug (AAD). While Class Ic agents are widely used, their safety profile often necessitates complex co-administration with rate-control drugs, potentially limiting adherence. Dronedarone …

Real-world off-label apixaban dosing and clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure and end-stage kidney disease

Sung Il Im, Su Hyun Bae, Soo Jin Kim, Bong Joon Kim et autres

Apixaban plays a crucial role in preventing cardioembolic events in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). However, in clinical practice, physicians often adjust apixaban dosing based on kidney function, deviating from guideline-recommended dosing. This study investigated the effects of real-world, off-label apixaban …

Impact of Pirfenidone on Arrhythmic and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Sung Il Im, Su Hyun Bae, Soo Jin Kim, Bong Joon Kim et autres

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrosis is an important substrate for atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in structural heart disease. A previous study reported that pirfenidone, an antifibrotic agent, reduced atrial and left ventricular fibrosis in an animal model. OBJECTIVE: The present research aims to evaluate …

A single-center analysis of guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction according to current heart failure guidelines

Bong-Joon Kim, Suhyun Bae, S. Kim, Sung Il Im et autres

Background: Recent landmark trials have shown that several pharmacologic therapies improve outcomes in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), leading to updates in heart failure (HF) management guidelines. However, real-world …

Optimizing beat-wise input for arrhythmia detection using 1-D convolutional neural networks: A real-world ECG study

Sunghan Lee, Guangyao Zheng, Jeonghwan Koh, Haoran Li et autres

BACKGROUNDS AND OBJECTIVES: Cardiac arrhythmias, characterized by irregular heartbeats, are difficult to diagnose in real-world scenarios. Machine learning has advanced arrhythmia detection; however, the optimal number of heartbeats for precise classification remains understudied. This study addresses this using machine learning while assessing …
