    Abstract Objectives: The aim of the study was to answer whether the central government has been more efficient than the regional governments or vice versa. Likewise, through the analysis of the data, the aim was to shed light on whether decentralisation has had a positive impact on the efficiency of the hospital sector or not.
    Design: In this paper, we have used data envelopment analysis to analyse the evolution of efficiency in the last 10 Autonomous Regions to receive healthcare competences at the end of 2001.
    Participants: For this study, we have taken into account the number of beds and full-time workers as inputs and the calculation of basic care units as outputs to measure the efficiency of the Spanish public sector, private sector and jointly in the years 2002, 2007, 2012 and 2017 for the last Autonomous Regions receiving healthcare competences.
    Results: Of the Autonomous Regions that received the transfers at the end of 2001, the following stand out for their higher efficiency growth: the Balearic Islands (81.44% improvement), the Madrid Autonomous Region, which practically reached absolute efficiency levels (having increased by 63.77%), and La Rioja which, together with the Balearic Islands which started from very low values, improved notably (46.13%).
    Conclusion: In general, it can be observed that the transfer of responsibilities in the health sector has improved efficiency in the National Health Service.

    Abstract Background: Several studies have shown an independent relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, little is known about the influence of BMI on AF recurrence after electrical cardioversion (ECV).
    Methods: We selected 1121 patients who reverted to sinus rhythm after scheduled ECV and were included in three prospective Spanish registries of ECV in persistent AF. The patients were classified according to baseline BMI into three categories (normal weight, overweight, obesity). We assessed the influence of BMI on the rate of AF recurrence at 3 months.
    Results: We identified 538 patients (48%) who had AF recurrence in the first 3 months after successful ECV. The patients who suffered AF recurrence had a higher BMI than those who remained in sinus rhythm (29.66±4.57 vs. 28.87±4.64 Kg/m2, respectively; p = 0.004). We observed a higher incidence of AF recurrence in the overweight and obese patients (BMI ≥25 kg/m2) than in those classified as normal weight (50.5% vs. 35.6%, respectively; p<0,001). BMI≥25 Kg/m2 was shown to be independently related to of AF recurrence in the multivariate analysis (OR = 1.75, 95% confidence interval = 1.20-2.58; p = 0.004).
    Conclusions: Increased BMI is independently related to AF recurrence after ECV. BMI should also be taken into account when making decisions about the indication for ECV in persistent AF.

    Abstract Objectives: The purpose of this study was to validate the ability of mapping algorithms to detect rotational activations (RoA) and focal activations (FoA) during fibrillatory conduction (FC) and atrial fibrillation (AF) and understand their mechanistic relevance.
    Background: Mapping algorithms have been proposed to detect RoA and FoA to guide AF ablation.
    Methods: Rapid left atrial pacing created FC-fibrillatory electrograms-with and without AF induction in dogs (n = 17). Activation maps were constructed using Topera (Abbott, St. Paul, Minnesota) or CARTOFINDER (Biosense Webster, Irvine, California) algorithms. Mapping strategies included: panoramic noncontact mapping with a basket catheter (CARTOFINDER n = 6, Topera n = 5); and sequential contact mapping using 8-spline OctaRay catheter (Biosense Webster) (n = 6). Offline frequency and spectral analysis were also performed. Algorithm-detected RoA was manually verified.
    Results: The right atrium (RA) consistently exhibited fibrillatory signals during FC. FC with and without AF had similar left-to-right frequency gradients. Basket maps were either uninterpretable (847 of 990 Topera, 132 of 148 Cartofinder) or had unverifiable RoA. OctaRay contact mapping showed 4% RoA (n = 30 of 679) and 63% FoA (n = 429 of 679). Verified RoA clustered at consistent sites, was more common in the RA than left atrium (odds ratio: 3.5), and colocalized with sites of frequency breakdown in the crista terminalis and RA appendage. During pacing, spurious FoA sites were identified around the atria, but not at the actual pacing sites. RoA and FoA site distribution was similar during pacing with and without induction, and during induced AF.
    Conclusions: Mapping algorithms were unable to detect pacing sites as true drivers of FC, and detected epiphenomenal RoA and FoA sites unrelated to AF induction or maintenance. Algorithm-detected RoA and FoA did not identify true AF drivers.

    Abstract Background: The prevalence of cancer patients with concomitant cardiovascular (CV) disease is on the rise due to improved cancer prognoses. The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term outcomes of cancer patients referred to a cardiology department (CD) via primary care using e-consultation.
    Methods: We analysed data from cancer patients with prior referrals to a CD between 2010 and 2021 (n = 6889) and compared two care models: traditional in-person consultations and e-consultations. In e-consultation model, cardiologists reviewed electronic health records (e-consultation) to determine whether the demand could be addressed remotely or necessitated an in-person consultation. We used an interrupted time series regression model to assess outcomes during the two periods: (1) time to cardiology consultation, (2) rates of all-cause and CV related hospital admissions and (3) rates of all-cause and CV-related mortality within the first year after the initial consultation or e-consultation at the CD.
    Results: Introduction of e-consultation for cancer patients referred to cardiology care led to a 51.8% reduction (95%CI: 51.7%-51.9%) in waiting times. Furthermore, we observed decreased 1-year incidence rates, with incidence rate ratios (iRRs) [IC95%] of .75 [.73-.77] for CV-related hospitalizations, .43 [.42-.44] for all-cause hospitalizations, and .87 [.86-.88] for all-cause mortality.
    Conclusions: Compared to traditional in-person consultations, an outpatient care program incorporating e-consultation for cancer patients significantly reduced waiting times for cardiology care and demonstrated safety, associated with lower rates of hospital admissions.
