Abstract
Introduction Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) features transient left ventricular apical dysfunction or ballooning. The underlying mechanism remains elusive; however, evidence suggests the role of different physical and psychological stressors. We systematically reviewed patients presenting with TCM and autoimmunity to explore the link between the two conditions. Methods We applied the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) to report this review. Using keywords related to autoimmune/immune-mediated diseases and TCM, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and WOS in March 2022. The final results were added to a data extraction sheet. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 26.0. Results Our search yielded 121 studies, including 155 patients. Females were considerably predominant. Most patients had a history of autoimmune disease, and almost a third had a history of cardiovascular disease. Dyspnea and chest pain were the most common chief complaints. More than 70% of patients had experienced physical stress. Myasthenia gravis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis were the most frequently reported autoimmune diseases. Conclusion There were similarities in age and sex compared to classic TCM. TCM should be considered as a differential diagnosis for ACS, especially in patients with a positive background of autoimmunity. A precise reporting system is required for further studies.

Abstract
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a stress-induced cardiomyopathy that presents with sudden onset of chest pain and dyspneic and cardiac dysfunction as a result of extreme physical or emotional stress. The sigma-1 receptor (Sigmar1) is a ligand-dependent molecular chaperone that is postulated to be involved in various processes related to cardiovascular disease. However, the role of Sigmar1 in TTS remains unresolved. In this study, we established a mouse model of TTS using wild-type and Sigmar1 knockout mice to investigate the involvement of Sigmar1 in TTS development. Our results revealed that Sigmar1 knockout exacerbated cardiac dysfunction, with a noticeable decrease in ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) compared to the wild-type model. In terms of the gut microbiome, we observed regulation of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes ratios; suppression of probiotic Lactobacillus growth; and a rise in pathogenic bacterial species, such as Colidextribacter. Metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses further suggested that Sigmar1 plays a role in regulating tryptophan metabolism and several signaling pathways, including MAPK, HIF-1, calcium signaling, and apoptosis pathways, which may be crucial in TTS pathogenesis. These findings offer valuable insight into the function of Sigmar1 in TTS, and this receptor may represent a promising therapeutic target for TTS.

Abstract
Background Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TTC) is characterized by reversible left ventricular apical ballooning in the absence of angiographically significant coronary artery disease. While TTC is usually preceded by an emotionally stressful event, physical trauma has been documented as a precipitating incident as well. Case summary An 82-year-old female with no past medical history, presented to the emergency department following a motor vehicle collision. Trauma workup was significant for an ulnar fracture, elevated cardiac enzymes, and ST-segment changes. Bedside echocardiogram revealed apical ballooning. She underwent cardiac catheterization, which failed to demonstrate significant coronary artery disease. The patient developed cardiogenic shock and required temporary vasopressor support after failing a trial of intra-aortic balloon pump. Conclusion Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy is a rare complication of trauma, which presents with signs and symptoms similar to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) but without evidence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Following trauma, signs of ACS in elderly women should raise provider's suspicion for TTC and prompting bedside echocardiography, which can assist with early diagnosis.

Abstract
Takotsubo syndrome is a condition characterized by acute transient left ventricular systolic dysfunction, which at presentation can be challenging to distinguish from acute myocardial infarction. Although previously thought to be a benign, self-limiting condition, recent studies have confirmed that patients with takotsubo syndrome have persistent subtle ongoing cardiac dysfunction, and many continue to have limiting symptoms despite restoration of left ventricular ejection fraction. Moreover, these patients have a substantial burden of morbidity as well as mortality with high rates of subsequent major adverse cardiovascular events that approach those of patients with acute coronary syndrome. The mechanisms behind this condition remain elusive. Despite substantial research, the medical community continues to have an incomplete understanding of its underlying etiology and pathophysiology. Catecholamine-induced myocardial injury is the most established and well-known theory, but this does not explain all of the clinical features and presentations of the condition, and numerous other pathways and abnormalities are emerging. Because of the poor understanding of its underlying pathophysiology, there is a lack of evidence-based interventions to treat the acute episode, to avoid recurrences and to prevent major adverse cardiovascular events. This highlights the need for further research to gain a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology in order to inform appropriate randomized controlled trials of interventions targeting the causative pathways. Only then can evidence-based management strategies be established to improve clinical outcomes of this potentially lethal condition.
