TL;DR: It is concluded that the adverse effects of class I drugs are mainly due to induction of unidirectional retrograde conduction of the manifest accessory pathway and the greater prolongation of the retrogrades conduction time of the concealed accessory pathway than the refractory period, regardless of the subclassification ofclass I drugs.

TL;DR: Among patients aged ≥75 years with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation and previous stroke/TIA, the risk of hemorrhagic events was lower in patients taking direct oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin.

TL;DR: Histological observation of the specimen was compatible with pleomorphic liposarcoma and high-intensity magnetic resonance image demonstrated low-intensity mass with high- intensity crescent on T2weighted MRI.

TL;DR: Results indicate that dilatation of the epicardial coronary artery was achieved with intracoronary nicorandil in a dose-dependent manner without any adverse effects in man, and the dilatory effect on coronary resistance vessels was of short duration.
