Risk of Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Cardiac Sarcoidosis Independent of Left Ventricular Function

This study investigated the association between left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and the risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VA), heart transplantation, and death in cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). We identified 110 CS patients meeting 2014 Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) diagnostic criteria with baselin...
