TL;DR: For patients with standard indications for ICD therapy, no indication for cardiac pacing, and an LVEF of 40% or less, dual-chamber pacing offers no clinical advantage over ventricular backup pacing and may be detrimental by increasing the combined end point of death or hospitalization for heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Calcium Antagonist vs a Non-Calcium Antagonist Hypertension Treatment Strategy for Patients With Coronary Artery Disease The International Verapamil-Trandolapril Study (INVEST): A Randomized Controlled Trial
Carl J. Pepine,Eileen M. Handberg,Rhonda M. Cooper-DeHoff,Ronald G. Marks,Peter R. Kowey,Franz H. Messerli,Giuseppe Mancia,Jose L. Cangiano,David Garcia-Barreto,Matyas Keltai,Serap Erdine,Heather A. Bristol,H Robert Kolb,George L. Bakris,Jerome D. Cohen,William W. Parmley +15 more
TL;DR: The verapamil-trandolapril- based strategy was as clinically effective as the atenolol-hydrochlorothiazide-based strategy in hypertensive CAD patients, and was also recommended for patients with heart failure, diabetes, or renal impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-Scale Assessment of a Smartwatch to Identify Atrial Fibrillation

TL;DR: This siteless study design provides a foundation for large-scale pragmatic studies in which outcomes or adherence can be reliably assessed with user-owned devices and the probability of receiving an irregular pulse notification was low.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dronedarone for maintenance of sinus rhythm in atrial fibrillation or flutter
Bramah N. Singh,Stuart J. Connolly,Denis Roy,Peter R. Kowey,Alessandro Capucci,David Radzik,Etienne Aliot,Stefan H. Hohnloser +7 more
TL;DR: Dronedarone was significantly more effective than placebo in maintaining sinus rhythm and in reducing the ventricular rate during recurrence of arrhythmia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Should a Moratorium Be Placed on Sublingual Nifedipine Capsules Given for Hypertensive Emergencies and Pseudoemergencies
TL;DR: The use of nifedipine capsules for hypertensive emergencies and pseudoemergencies should be abandoned because of the seriousness of the reported adverse events and the lack of any clinical documentation attesting to a benefit.
