- Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a poorly recognized heart disease that was initially regarded as a benign condition. Recently, it has been shown that TTS may be associated with severe clinical complications including death and that its prevalence is probably underestimated. Since current guidelines on TTS are lacking, it appears timely and important to provide an expert consensus statement on TTS. The clinical expert consensus document part I summarizes the current state of knowledge on clinical presentation and characteristics of TTS and agrees on controversies surrounding TTS such as nomenclature, different TTS types, role of coronary artery disease, and etiology. This consensus also proposes new diagnostic criteria based on current knowledge to improve diagnostic accuracy.

International Expert Consensus Document on Takotsubo Syndrome (Part II): Diagnostic Workup, Outcome, and Management
- 2018

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The clinical expert consensus statement on takotsubo syndrome (TTS) part II focuses on the diagnostic workup, outcome, and management. The recommendations are based on interpretation of the limited clinical trial data currently available and experience of international TTS experts. It summarizes the diagnostic approach, which may facilitate correct and timely diagnosis. Furthermore, the document covers areas where controversies still exist in risk stratification and management of TTS. Based on available data the document provides recommendations on optimal care of such patients for practising physicians.

The staging and grading system in defining periodontitis cases: consistency and accuracy amongst periodontal experts, general dentists and undergraduate students
- 2021

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Aim The objective of this study was to evaluate consistency and accuracy of the periodontitis staging and grading classification system. Methods Thirty participants (10 periodontal experts, 10 general dentists and 10 undergraduate students) and a gold-standard examiner were asked to classify 25 fully documented periodontitis cases twice. Fleiss kappa was used to estimate consistency across examiners. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to calculate consistency across time. Quadratic weighted kappa and percentage of complete agreement versus gold standard were computed to assess accuracy. Results Fleiss kappa for stage, extent and grade were 0.48, 0.37 and 0.45 respectively. The highest ICC was provided by students for stage (0.91), whereas the lowest ICC by general dentists for extent (0.79). Pairwise comparisons against gold standard showed mean value of kappa >0.81 for stage and >0.41 for grade and extent. Agreement with the gold standard for all three components of the case definition was achieved in 47.2% of cases. The study identified specific factors associated with lower consistency and accuracy. Conclusions Diagnosis was highly consistent across time and moderately between examiners. Accuracy was almost perfect for stage and moderate for grade and extent. Additional efforts are required to improve training of general dentists.

The European Heart Journal: fulfilling the mission
- 2022

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In September 2020, the new Editors of the European Heart Journal (EHJ) wrote the following in their inaugural editorial: “The fundamental mission of the Journal remains the reduction of the global burden of cardiovascular disease. We aspire to advance this aim by worldwide teamwork to communicate practice-changing research, inspire clinical cardiologists, and pursue rigour and transparency in the application of science at the service of human health. The Journal will strive to lead the field in its impact, influence, and reach”. After more than one year of experience the Editors hope the cardiological community will agree that they are fulfilling this mission. As stewards of the EHJ, the Editor's primary goal is not solely to achieve a high Impact Factor (which attests to the scientific quality and influence of our publications) but also to elevate the practice of cardiovascular medicine worldwide. Accordingly, various initiatives of the EHJ strive to strengthen further links among Editors, Authors, Reviewers and Readers through a series of coordinated and diverse activities, including webinars, active social media presence, and active participation at congresses worldwide. The Editors are proud to serve one of the most important scientific journals in cardiovascular medicine.
