Introduction: Wave speed (WS) mapping, enabled by omnipolar technology, allows for real-time visualization of local conduction velocity (CV). Its utility in ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation has not been fully characterized.
Methods And Results: We describe a case series of patients undergoing VT ablation in which WS mapping was applied alongside established techniques such as peak frequency (PF) mapping and isochronal late activation mapping (ILAM).

Background: Between November 2023 and March 2024, coastal Kenya experienced another wave of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections detected through our continued genomic surveillance. Herein, we report the clinical and genomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 infections from 179 individuals (a total of 185 positive samples) residing in the Kilifi Health and Demographic Surveillance System (KHDSS) area (~ 900 km).
Methods: We analyzed genetic, clinical, and epidemiological data from SARS-CoV-2 positive cases across pediatric inpatient, health facility outpatient, and homestead community surveillance platforms.

Background: To compare surgical and long-term patient-reported outcomes (PRO) between excisional (Nesbit) and incisional (Yachia) corporoplasty for correction of uncomplicated Peyronie's-related penile curvature in a large, single-surgeon cohort. A retrospective audit identified men who underwent Nesbit or Yachia corporoplasty (2015-2021). Operative data was extracted from records.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of asthma severity on biventricular cardiac functions using tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE), and three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE).
Methods: Sixty-three children with asthma, aged between 5 and 16 years, were enrolled in the study along with 63 matched controls. All participants underwent cardiac assessments, including TDI, 2D-STE, 3D-STE, conventional echocardiography, and pulmonary function testing with spirometry.

While most sudden cardiac deaths are due to structural heart disease or cardiac ischemia, intoxications are rather rare and often unrecognized. Here we present a case of a 35-year-old patient who trickled cumulative 60 mg of the pure nicotine liquid. This led to cardiac arrest and ventricular fibrillation.
