5-Year Results From the AMPLATZER Amulet Left Atrial Appendage Occluder Randomized Controlled Trial
Lakkireddy D, Ellis CR, Thaler D, Swarup V, Gambhir A, Hermiller J, Nielsen-Kudsk JE, Worthley S, Nair D, Schmidt B, Horton R, Gupta N, Anderson JA, Zhao H, Alkhouli M and Windecker S
The Amulet IDE trial (AMPLATZER Amulet Left Atrial Appendage Occluder [LAAO] Investigational Device Exemption [IDE] Trial) evaluated the safety and effectiveness of the Amulet occluder (Abbott) in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. The Amulet IDE trial is the largest randomized LAAO trial, comparing the Amulet occluder with the Watchman 2.5 device (Boston Scientific).

Anatomic and Physiologic Repair of Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries
Jacob KA, Hörer J, Hraska V, Agbor VN, Duchateau S, van Wijk A, Barron DJ and Schoof PH
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is a rare cardiac anomaly. The management strategy historically consisted of physiologic repair, leaving the morphologic right ventricle to support the systemic circulation. More recently, anatomic repair has been implemented to bring the left ventricle into the systemic circulation. Uncertainty persists about which repair strategy has the best outcome.

Outpatient Worsening Heart Failure in Patients with Transthyretin Amyloidosis with Cardiomyopathy in the HELIOS-B Trial
Fontana M, Maurer MS, Gillmore JD, Bender S, Aldinc E, Eraly SA, Jay PY and Solomon SD
Transthyretin amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a fatal disease, caused by misfolded transthyretin depositing as amyloid fibrils in the heart. Because disease progression is common, practical and sensitive methods are needed to monitor patients and optimize treatment decisions. Outpatient worsening heart failure (HF) (oral loop diuretic intensification or initiation) is simple to assess and has been shown to be prognostic of mortality in patients with ATTR-CM.

Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate for Management of Hyperkalemia During Spironolactone Optimization in Patients with Heart Failure
Kosiborod MN, Cherney DZI, Desai AS, Testani JM, Verma S, Chinnakondepalli K, Dolling D, Patel S, Dahl M, Eudicone JM, Friberg L, Ouwens M, Antunes MO, Connelly KA, Madrini V, Kuthi L, Lala A, Lorenzo M, Guimarães PO, Marcos MC, Merkely B, Nuñez J, Squire I, Václavík J, Wranicz J and Petrie MC
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) improve outcomes in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) but are underused in clinical practice. Observational data suggest that hyperkalemia is the leading obstacle for the suboptimal use of MRA.

Machine Learning-Based Prediction of Death and Hospitalization in Patients With Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators
Rosman L, Lampert R, Wang K, Gehi AK, Dziura J, Salmoirago-Blotcher E, Brandt C, Sears SF and Burg M
Predicting the clinical trajectory of individual patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) is essential to inform clinical care. Machine learning approaches can potentially overcome the limitations of conventional statistical methods and provide more accurate, personalized risk estimates.
