TL;DR: Patients with takotsubo cardiomyopathy had a higher prevalence of neurologic or psychiatric disorders than did those with an acute coronary syndrome and physical triggers, acute neurologics or psychiatric diseases, high troponin levels, and a low ejection fraction on admission were independent predictors for in-hospital complications.

Stefan H. Hohnloser,Karl-Heinz Kuck,Paul Dorian,Robin S. Roberts,John R. Hampton,Robert Hatala,Eric Fain,Michael Gent,Stuart J. Connolly +8 more
TL;DR: Prophylactic ICD therapy does not reduce overall mortality in high-risk patients who have recently had a myocardial infarction, and is associated with a reduction in the rate of death due to arrhythmia, that was offset by an increase in the rates of death from nonarrhythmic causes.
