Uncovering the Risks of Asymptomatic WPW Syndrome
Introduction What happens when the heart sends out an alarm with no warning signs? Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome may show no symptoms—yet harbor the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). A new state-of-the-art review sheds light on the complexities of asymptomatic WPW, aiming to guide clinicians in early detection and safe intervention.

Linking Myocardial Fibrosis to Sudden Cardiac Death in HCM
Introduction: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most prevalent cardiac genetic disorder, affecting approximately 0.2% of the general population. It is characterized by myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). This systematic review investigates the role of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging as a predictor of…

Understanding Coronary Artery Anomalies A Case Based Insight
Introduction Congenital coronary artery anomalies, though rare, pose a significant risk of sudden cardiac events, particularly in physically active individuals. These anomalies, where a coronary artery arises from the opposite aortic sinus, can lead to ischemia and even sudden death.

Heart Disease and Endogenous Toxicity A New Perspective
Introduction Heart disease remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, with ongoing research exploring new mechanisms behind its development. A recent hypothesis suggests that endogenous toxicological factors may play a crucial role in certain cardiac pathologies. This perspective examines whether internal biochemical imbalances—rather than solely external risk factors—could contribute to heart disease. Visit https://www.cardiologymedjournal.com/jccm for…
