Abstract
This virtual workshop was convened by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, in partnership with the Office of Strategic Coordination of the Office of the National Institutes of Health Director, and held September 2 to 3, 2020. The intent was to assemble a multidisciplinary group of experts in basic, translational, and clinical research in neuroscience and cardiopulmonary disorders to identify knowledge gaps, guide future research efforts, and foster multidisciplinary collaborations pertaining to autonomic neural mechanisms of cardiopulmonary regulation. The group critically evaluated the current state of knowledge of the roles that the autonomic nervous system plays in regulation of cardiopulmonary function in health and in pathophysiology of arrhythmias, heart failure, sleep and circadian dysfunction, and breathing disorders. Opportunities to leverage the Common Fund's SPARC (Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions) program were characterized as related to nonpharmacologic neuromodulation and device-based therapies. Common themes discussed include knowledge gaps, research priorities, and approaches to develop novel predictive markers of autonomic dysfunction. Approaches to precisely target neural pathophysiological mechanisms to herald new therapies for arrhythmias, heart failure, sleep and circadian rhythm physiology, and breathing disorders were also detailed.

Management of ventricular tachycardia in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy: contemporary armamentarium. Europace 2021; 24:538-551.

Abstract
Worldwide, ∼4 million people die from sudden cardiac death every year caused in more than half of the cases by ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). Prevention of sudden cardiac death after myocardial infarction by implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is the most common, even though not curative, therapy to date. Optimized ICD programming should be strived for in order to decrease the incidence of ICD interventions. Catheter ablation reduces the recurrence of ventricular tachycardias (VTs) and is an important adjunct to sole ICD-based treatment or pharmacological antiarrhythmic therapy in patients with ICM, as conclusively demonstrated by seven randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in the last two decades. However, none of the conducted trials was powered to reveal a survival benefit for ablated patients as compared to controls. Whereas thorough consideration of an early approach is necessary following two recent RCTs (PAUSE-SCD, BERLIN VT), catheter ablation is particularly recommended in patients with recurrent VT after ICD therapy. In this context, novel, pathophysiologically driven ablation strategies referring to deep morphological and functional substrate phenotyping based on high-resolution mapping and three-dimensional visualization of scars appear promising. Emerging concepts like sympathetic cardiac denervation as well as radioablation might expand the therapeutical armamentarium especially in patients with therapy-refractory VT. Randomized controlled trials are warranted and on the way to investigate how these translate into improved patient outcome. This review summarizes therapeutic strategies currently available for the prevention of VT recurrences, the optimal timing of applicability, and highlights future perspectives after a PAUSE in BERLIN.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction is a prevalent major cardiovascular event that arises from myocardial ischemia with or without reperfusion, and basic and translational research is needed to better understand its underlying mechanisms and consequences for cardiac structure and function. Ischemia underlies a broad range of clinical scenarios ranging from angina to hibernation to permanent occlusion, and while reperfusion is mandatory for salvage from ischemic injury, reperfusion also inflicts injury on its own. In this consensus statement, we present recommendations for animal models of myocardial ischemia and infarction. With increasing awareness of the need for rigor and reproducibility in designing and performing scientific research to ensure validation of results, the goal of this review is to provide best practice information regarding myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and infarction models.
