“…Ninety percent (90%) of cases are diagnosed in postmenopausal women, with the majority being Caucasian women. [2][3][4][5]7,[9][10] In animal studies, estrogen has been shown to impair sympathetic activity. Thus, decreased estrogen levels in postmenopausal women may contribute to the sympathetic overactivation in takotsubo cardiomyopathy.…”

“…2,7,9 Complications are rare but may include heart failure, cardiogenic shock if systolic function is significantly impaired, arrhythmias, and even death. 3,7 Men who are affected have a four-fold increased risk of mortality compared to women. This is likely due to the fact that men have complications more frequently than women.…”

“…Women comprise the majority of the disease population. [2][3][4][5]7,[9][10] Significant negative emotional stressors, such as those causing grief and shock, have been identified as triggers most often. Physical stressors such as infection and surgery explain why takotsubo cardiomyopathy is commonly seen in the critical care setting.…”

“…4 This suggests an interlinked pathway between cognitive, emotional, and physical stimuli which trigger a sympathetic central nervous system response, ultimately affecting the function of the cardiovascular system. [3][4]7,11 cAse An 81-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with new onset left-sided chest tightness associated with nausea and vomiting. The chest pain radiated to her left arm and jaw.…”

Exact natural history and physiopathology of takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) are incompletely understood. In the last years, a lot of special cases of TC appeared in the literature. This case report is a typical case of TC, which meets all Mayo Clinic diagnosis criteria, over the exceptions; its main feature is that it has both physical (medical) and emotional (psychiatric) triggers. The protagonist is a woman affected by anxious-depressive syndrome, hospitalized for a cardiogenic syncope. After pacemaker (PMK) implantation, she first has convulsive hysteric crisis, and the following day, she has a transient left ventricular apical ballooning without coronary artery stenosis: takotsubo syndrome. This case underlines the depth and strong relationship between takotsubo syndrome and psychiatric illness, which is both clinical substrate and triggering acute event, with the significant role of PMK implantation which might have had a role both as flare of psychiatric disease and as a trigger for the syndrome itself.

IMPORTANCEMachine learning algorithms enable the automatic classification of cardiovascular diseases based on raw cardiac ultrasound imaging data. However, the utility of machine learning in distinguishing between takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been studied.OBJECTIVES To assess the utility of machine learning systems for automatic discrimination of TTS and AMI. DESIGN, SETTINGS, AND PARTICIPANTSThis cohort study included clinical data and transthoracic echocardiogram results of patients with AMI from the Zurich Acute Coronary Syndrome Registry and patients with TTS obtained from 7 cardiovascular centers in the International Takotsubo Registry.
