Fine versus coarse atrial fibrillation in rheumatic mitral stenosis: The impact of aging and the clinical significance
ConclusionCoarse morphology of AF is common in patients with rheumatic MS. While echocardiographic or most clinical parameters do not seem to associate with the occurrence of coarse or fine morphology, age seems to be the only independent factor correlated with the presence of fine subtype of AF in this population.

Bizarre and scary ECG in yew leaves poisoning: Report of successful treatment
Yew leaves poisoning is a rare life‐threatening intoxication, whose diagnosis can be difficult. Initial symptoms are nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dizziness, tachycardia, muscle weakness, confusion, beginning within 1 hr from ingestion and followed by bradycardia, ventricular arrhythmias, ventricular fibrillation, severe hypotension, and death. Taxine‐derived alkaloids are responsible for the toxicity of the yew leaves, blocking sodium and calcium channels, and causing conduction abnormalities. Because of lack of a specific antidote and limited efficacy of common antiarrhythmic drugs, prompt diagnosis, detoxificat...

Prognostic value of T ‐wave morphology parameters in coronary artery disease in current treatment era
ConclusionT‐wave morphology parameters describing repolarization heterogeneity improve the predictive power of the clinical risk model for CD in patients with CAD in the current treatment era. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Transient left septal fascicular block in the setting of acute coronary syndrome associated with giant slurring variant J ‐wave
We report a case of acute coronary syndrome with transient prominent anterior QRS forces (PAF) caused by proximal subocclusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery before the first septal perforator branch. The ECG change indicates left septal fascicular block (LSFB) with associated slurring‐type giant J‐wave. Currently, this J‐wave variant is considered as a lambda‐like wave or QRS‐ST‐T “triangulation”. Its presence is indicative of poor prognosis because of the risk for cardiac arrest as a consequence of ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF). (Source: Annals of Noninvas...

Symptomatic arrhythmia in the form of multiple premature ventricular extrasystoles as the first symptom of polymyositis
Polymyositis (PM) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the involvement of multiple internal organs, including the cardiovascular system. The involvement of heart is observed in up to 75% of patients with PM. Conduction and rhythm disorders are one of the most common cardiological abnormalities in these patients. The presented clinical case is the patient where ventricular arrhythmia (in the form of multiple premature ventricular extrasystoles) was the first symptom of polymyositis.

Baseline fragmented QRS increases the risk of major arrhythmic events in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionBaseline fQRS increased major arrhythmic events up to sevenfold. Our study suggests that fQRS could be an important tool for risk assessment in patients with HCM. (Source: Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology)

Acute coronary syndrome of very unusual etiology
We report a case of a 40‐year‐old male patient admitted with a clinical picture of acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina). He had no risk factors for coronary artery disease. The physical examination revealed nothing remarkable. The admission electrocardiogram (ECG) showed ST segment depression in the anterolateral and inferior leads (Figure 1). The coronary angiogram showed critical ostial stenosis of the right (RCA) and left main coronary artery (Figure 2a, b). Cardiac‐computed tomography showed aortic wall thickening with involvement of bilateral coronary ostia (Figure 2b, c). The patient was referred for co...
