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.

TL;DR: A signature of four circulating miRNAs as a robust biomarker to distinguish TTC from STEMI patients is described for the first time and suggests a close connection of TTC with neuropsychiatric disorders.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hemodialysis leads to decrease of CVIBS in ESRD patients and that early mitral annulus velocity (Em) could be preload independent marker of left ventricular diastolic function in E SRD patients.

TL;DR: An 82-year-old female after a stress event, with no past medical history of cardiovascular diseases, was referred for emergency coronary angiography and prominent ST-segment elevation in V1–V5 and increased troponin I level suggested anteroseptal acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: In women with typical angina and normal coronary angiogram, the position in menstrual cycle influences the ST depression but not myocardial contractility during exercise echocardiography.
