Ethnic comparison in takotsubo syndrome : novel insights from the International...
Imori, Yoichi; Kato, Ken; Cammann, Victoria L.; Szawan, Konrad A.; Wischnewsky, Manfred; Dreiding, Sara; Würdinger, Michael; Schönberger, MaximilianBackground: Ethnic disparities have been reported in cardiovascular disease. However, ethnic disparities in takotsubo syndrome (TTS) remain elusive. This study assessed differences in clinical characteristics between Japanese and European TTS patients and determined the impact of ethnicity on in-hospital outcomes. Methods: TTS patients in Japan were enrolled from 10 hospitals and TTS patients in Europe were enr...
Clinical predictors and prognostic impact of recovery of wall motion abnormalit...
Jurisic, Stjepan; Gili, Sebastiano; Cammann, Victoria L.; Kato, Ken; Szawan, Konrad A.; D'Ascenzo, Fabrizio; Jaguszewski, Milosz; Bossone, EduardoBackground: Left ventricular (LV) recovery in takotsubo syndrome (TTS) occurs over a wide‐ranging interval, varying from hours to weeks. We sought to investigate the clinical predictors and prognostic impact of recovery time for TTS patients. Methods and Results: TTS patients from the International Takotsubo Registry were included in this study. Cut‐off for early LV recovery was determined to be 10 days after t...
Prediction of short‐ and long‐term mortality in Takotsubo syndrome : the InterT...
Wischnewsky, Manfred B.; Candreva, Alessandro; Bacchi, Beatrice; Cammann, Victoria L.; Kato, Ken; Szawan, Konrad A.; Gili, SebastianoRecent evidence suggests comparable in‐hospital and long‐term outcomes between takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and acute coronary syndrome. Medical scoring systems are practical tools for decision making and prognostic assessment. However, TTS‐specific scoring systems for risk stratification have not yet been established. Recently, classification based on triggering conditions proved useful in predicting adverse outco...
