Background: Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is an abnormally rapid heart rhythm that results from improper electrical activity in the upper part of the heart. Acute management of children presenting with SVT may be a challenge, as the exact tachycardia mechanism is often unknown. The strategy for treatment depends on the presentation and clinical status of the patient. Methodology: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify and select original research reports on supraventricular tachycardia management drugs in children and infants with no structural heart disease (all children from 1 hour to 17 years of age) in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. Data were analyzed with Review manager version 5.4. P -value and I 2 were used to test the signifi cance difference. Results: 26 studies out of 65 total studies assessed for eligibility were included in the review by fulfi lling the inclusion criteria. There were 8103 patients from 13 countries with SVT who were treated with different antiarrhythmic drugs including (Adenosine, Dexmedetomidine) as acute management and (Amiodarone, Beta-Blockers, Flecainide, Digoxin and Ivabradine) as chronic control. There was a signifi cant difference between the patients who took the drugs and the patients who responded to the drugs, with P -value <0.005 and I 2 = 72%.

Objectives: Previous studies have suggested that atherosclerosis is a chronic infl ammatory disease and impli-cate components of the immune system in atherogenesis. The CD40 and CD40 ligand system regulates mul-tiple phases of the humoral and cellular immune response. Soluble CD40 (sCD40) ligand especially releases from activated platelets. Platelets are involved not only in thrombosis, but also in atherosclerotic lesion formation and restenosis processes. The aim of our study is to evaluate whether there is a relationship between the level of sCD40 ligand and angiographic extent and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and to compare other cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: 102 participants were included in our study. Among them, 37 patients constituted acute coronary syndrome (ACS) group, 41 patients were diagnosed as stable angina pectoris group (SAP), while 24 subjects served as control group. Peripheral venous blood samples were drawn at the Coronary Care Unit admission of ACS group patients. From SAP group patients and controls who have normal coronary arteries, blood samples collected after coronary angiography. The Gensini score was computed for each patient by assigning the severity score to each coronary stenosis in accordance with the degree

The authors expose a case report of a 75-year-old woman admitted due to syncope and history of endometrial sarcoma. Echocardiography at hospital admission revealed two cardiac masses (in the right atrium [32×38 mm] and the other in the left ventricle [42×32 mm]), both with mobility and causing dynamic obstruction of the tricuspid valve and left ventricular outfl ow tract. Metastatic lesions were promptly suspected, considering the previous history, and an approach based on multimodality cardiovascular imaging was performed for differential diagnosis. Endometrial stromal sarcomas are rare tumors of the uterus corresponding to 0.2–1% of all uterine malignancies. Intracardiac metastasis from endometrial stromal sarcoma is a rare fi nding. The majority of reported metastasis is to the right side of the heart, being this case report a rare case of left chamber involvement. Klíčová

Background: Coronary angiography has some limitations in the proper assessment of coronary artery lesions. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can identify signifi - cant stenosis, select the appropriate stent and detect complications. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of intravascular ultrasound on clinical and angiographic outcomes after revascularization by stenting for patients with unprotected left main (ULM) or proximal left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery disease (CAD). Materials and methods: A prospective randomized controlled study that was carried on sixty patients presented with stable angina or non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome. Coronary angiography that was carried out at cardiac catheterization laboratory at the National Heart Institute in Egypt revealed signifi cant left main or proximal LAD coronary artery disease. Patients were scheduled for revascularization
