COVID-19 and Long COVID

COVID-19 and Post COVID-19 Condition (Long COVID)
The COVID-19 outbreak presents the unprecedented challenge for world public and medical practitioners and health care providers, the post COVID-19 condition (or long COVID) includes long term symptoms which may persist for months or years after SARS-CoV-2 infection. We will consider submissions related to all aspects of COVID-19 and Long COVID, and process the manuscripts in priority.
Collection of COVID-19 articles.

Highlights

Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: The Role of Genetics in Diagnosis, Management, and Screening
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a predominantly autosomal dominant genetic condition in which fibrous and fatty tissue infiltrate and replace healthy myocardial tissue. This uncommon yet debilitating condition can cause ventricular arrhythmias, cardiac failure, and sudden cardiac death.

Comparison of Tricuspid Regurgitation Severity Between Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Versus Right Ventricular Pacing in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Right ventricular (RV) lead placement can worsen tricuspid regurgitation (TR). TR is known to be associated with lower survival irrespective of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) or pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Isolated Tricuspid Valve Replacement for Infective Endocarditis
Existing data regarding isolated tricuspid valve replacement for primary tricuspid valve disease such as infective endocarditis (IE) are limited. The aim of this study was to review our experience of isolated tricuspid valve replacement for IE.

An Analysis of Global Research Trends and Top-Cited Research Articles in Cardio-Oncology
As novel cancer therapies continue to improve patient outcomes, there is an increased need for prevention and management of the cardiovascular side effects of these therapies. For this reason, the field of cardio-oncology has experienced significant scientific growth, particularly during the last decade.

Prevalence and Risk Factors for Preprocedural Medication Errors in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter
Perfect adherence to anticoagulant medications is an important aspect of care for patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing cardiac electrophysiology procedures to minimize the risk of stroke.

Editorial			Video Report
Heart Failure Research and Polypharmacy For many years the therapy for heart failure with a low ejection fraction was digoxin and diuretics with a very grim prognosis. Starting the 1980s we have been fortunate to see the introduction of evidence-based therapies that improve how patients feel, as well as reducing mortality.

Featured Article

The Association Between Admission Heart Failure and In-Hospital Outcomes in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) study showed that admission HF is associated with longer hospital stay and higher mortality in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. No data are available on the effect of heart failure (HF) on the length of cardiac care unit (CCU) stay and in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). Full Text

Key Clinical Image

A Curious Case of an Anomalous Right Coronary Artery
Single coronary artery (SCA) is an unusual congenital anomaly, seen by diagnostic coronary angiography. Absence of the right coronary artery (RCA) is one of the rarest coronary artery anomalies occurring when the artery fails to develop in the right atrioventricular (AV) groove. Herein, we describe the case of a 58-year-old man presenting with new onset decompensated congestive heart failure found to have a congenitally absent right coronary ostium. Full Text
