Article Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is more common in patients with malignancies than in general population. The pathophysiological processes include the pro-inflammatory condition and the exaggerated inflammatory reaction to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery interventions. Thus, it is pivotal to decrease morbidity and mortality in this group by providing appropriate care and prevention. In this subset, the risk of thromboembolic and bleeding events is high and the common risk score such as CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED employed in non-oncologic patients have limited evidence in cancer patients. A paucity of evidence in the setting in individuals having both malignancies and atrial fibrillation entangle the clinician when it comes to therapeutic management. Tailored management is recommended of anticoagulation treatment could be difficult, and there is. In this review, we try to explain the mechanism of AF in cancer patients as well as its management in this setting.

Artificial Intelligence Automation of Echocardiographic Measurements.

Background: Accurate measurement of echocardiographic parameters is crucial for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease and tracking of change over time; however, manual assessment requires time-consuming effort and can be imprecise. Artificial intelligence has the potential to reduce clinician burden by automating the time-intensive task of comprehensive measurement of echocardiographic parameters.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate open-sourced deep learning semantic segmentation models for the automated measurement of 18 anatomic and Doppler measurements in echocardiography.

Background: The effectiveness of ethanol infusion of the vein of Marshall (EIVOM) for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with mitral valve replacement (MVR) remains to be determined.
Objectives: This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of EIVOM in catheter ablation of persistent AF in patients with MVR.
Methods: This is a retrospective case-control study.

Evaluation of Bleeding and Thrombotic Outcomes of Anticoagulation Strategies Upon Intensive Care Unit Admission for Patients with Atrial Fibrillation on Direct Oral Anticoagulants.

Critically ill adults are more commonly being admitted to intensive care units (ICU) with a recent history of direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) use. No consensus guidance exists on optimal anticoagulation strategies in critically ill adults with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) on DOAC's prior to ICU admission, and there is considerable variability in clinical practice. To evaluate rates of major bleeding and thrombosis between 2 anticoagulation strategies for NVAF upon ICU admission: package insert (continuation of oral or parenteral anticoagulation per manufacturer recommendations) vs non-package insert (prophylactic dosing or delayed therapeutic anticoagulation).

Background: Catheter ablation of scar-related interatrial septal atrial tachycardias (IAS-ATs) is challenging and can be refractory to conventional unipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA).
Aim: This multicenter study investigated the safety and efficacy of bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation (Bi-RFCA) in patients with IAS-AT refractory to conventional unipolar RFCA.
Methods: Consecutive patients with scar-related IAS-AT refractory to conventional unipolar RFA across three electrophysiological centers were included in the study.
