In patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and an ICD who had ventricular tachycardia despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy, there was a significantly lower rate of the composite primary outcome of death, ventricular tachycardia storm, or appropriate
ICD shock among patients undergoing catheter ablation than among those receiving an escalation in antiarrhythmic drug therapy.

RECENT ADVANCES IN THE MANAGEMENT OF REFRACTORY HEART FAILUREApollo Hospitals
Heart failure is a pathophysiological state in which structural or functional cardiac disorder impairs the ability of the heart to function as a pump to support the physiological circulation. The medical therapy remains the
mainstay of treatment in these patients. The medical therapy can improve the quality of life and the longevity in
these patients, but this becomes insufficient in refractory heart failure. The heart failure is considered refractory when patients continued to be symptomatic despite optimal dose of medications, characterized by advanced structural heart disease. These patients will need frequent hospitalizations and the overall prognosis is very poor.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

5. BACKGROUND
• Whether revascularization by percutaneous
coronary intervention (PCI) can improve
event-free survival and left ventricular
function in patients with severe ischemic left
ventricular systolic dysfunction, as compared
with optimal medical therapy (i.e., individually
adjusted pharmacologic and device therapy
for heart failure) alone, is unknown.
6. Methods
• We randomly assigned patients with a left ventricular
ejection fraction of 35% or less, extensive coronary
artery disease amenable to PCI, and demonstrable
myocardial viability to a strategy of either PCI plus
optimal medical therapy (PCI group) or optimal medical
therapy alone (optimal-medical-therapy group).
• The primary composite outcome was death from any
cause or hospitalization for heart failure.
• Major secondary outcomes were left ventricular
ejection fraction at 6 and 12 months and quality-of-life
scores.
7. • Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to
a strategy of PCI plus optimal medical therapy
(PCI group) or optimal medical therapy alone
(optimal-medical-therapy group).
• Optimal medical therapy refers to individually
adjusted pharmacologic and device therapy for
heart failure. In the PCI group, the protocol
required that revascularization be attempted on
all diseased proximal coronary vessels subtending
areas of viable myocardium.
8.
9. • The extent of revascularization was
characterized by the British Cardiovascular
Intervention Society jeopardy score and
anatomical revascularization index, which was
calculated as follows: [(the pre-PCI jeopardy
score minus the post-PCI jeopardy score)
divided by (the pre-PCI jeopardy score)]×100,
with 100% indicating complete
revascularization of all angiographically
significant coronary disease
10. • Medical therapy for heart failure was initiated
before enrollment and customized according
to the patient’s individual needs throughout
the trial by heart-failure specialists at the
recruiting centers.
11. • A medical-therapy committee reviewed
guidelines periodically and refined
recommendations to ensure that the
pharmacologic and device therapy given to all
patients in the trial remained contemporary.
The decision to insert an implantable
cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac
resynchronization therapy device was at the
discretion of treating clinicians but had to be
documented before randomization.

19. CONCLUSIONS
• Among patients with severe ischemic left
ventricular systolic dysfunction who received
optimal medical therapy, revascularization by
PCI did not result in a lower incidence of death
from any cause or hospitalization for heart
failure. (Funded by the National Institute for
