Genetic insight into sick sinus syndrome
ConclusionWe report the associations of variants at six loci with SSS, including a missense variant inKRT8 that confers high risk in homozygotes and points to a mechanism specific to SSS development. Mendelian randomization supports a causal role for AF in the development of SSS. (Source: European Heart Journal)

Coronary stent CD31-mimetic coating favours endothelialization and reduces local inflammation and neointimal development in vivo
ConclusionCD31-mimetic coating favours vascular homeostasis and arterial wall healing, preventing in-stent stenosis and thrombosis. Hence, such coatings seem to improve the metal stent biocompatibility. (Source: European Heart Journal)

Cardiac arrest in COVID-19: characteristics and outcomes of in- and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. A report from the Swedish Registry for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
ConclusionDuring the pandemic phase, COVID-19 was involved in at least 10% of all OHCAs and 16% of IHCAs, and, among COVID-19 cases, 30-day mortality was increased 3.4-fold in OHCA and 2.3-fold in IHCA. (Source: European Heart Journal)
