Is pulse palpation helpful in detecting atrial fibrillation? A systematic review.
Cooke G, Doust J, Sanders S. Cooke G, et al. J Fam Pract. 2006 Feb;55(2):130-4. J Fam Pract. 2006. PMID: 16451780 Review.
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation in the elderly is common and potentially life threatening. ...CONCLUSIONS: Pulse palpation has a high sensitivity but relatively low specificity for atrial fibrillation. It is therefore useful for ruling out atrial …

Misdiagnosis of aortic dissection: A systematic review of the literature.
Lovatt S, Wong CW, Schwarz K, Borovac JA, Lo T, Gunning M, Phan T, Patwala A, Barker D, Mallen CD, Kwok CS. Lovatt S, et al. Am J Emerg Med. 2022 Mar;53:16-22. doi: 10.1016/j.ajem.2021.11.047. Epub 2021 Dec 4. Am J Emerg Med. 2022. PMID: 34968970
CONCLUSIONS: Misdiagnosis in patients with an eventual diagnosis of aortic dissection affects 1 in 3 patients. Clinicians should consider aortic dissection as differential diagnosis in patients with chest pain, back pain and syncope. Imaging should be used ea …

Challenges and limitations in the diagnosis of atrioesophageal fistula.
Ha FJ, Han HC, Sanders P, Teh AW, O'Donnell D, Farouque O, Lim HS. Ha FJ, et al. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2018 Jun;29(6):861-871. doi: 10.1111/jce.13494. Epub 2018 Apr 23. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2018. PMID: 29603477
INTRODUCTION: Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF) is a dire complication of atrial fibrillation ablation. The diagnostic yield of computed tomography (CT) chest, the role and timing of repeat testing, and the value of other investigations in the diagnosis of AEF is …

How do neurologists diagnose transient ischemic attack: A systematic review.
Fitzpatrick T, Gocan S, Wang CQ, Hamel C, Bourgoin A, Dowlatshahi D, Stotts G, Shamy M. Fitzpatrick T, et al. Int J Stroke. 2019 Feb;14(2):115-124. doi: 10.1177/1747493018816430. Epub 2018 Dec 3. Int J Stroke. 2019. PMID: 30507363 Free PMC article.
BACKGROUND: Identifying and treating patients with transient ischemic attack is an effective means of preventing stroke. However, making this diagnosis can be challenging, and over a third of patients referred to stroke prevention clinic are ultimately found to have altern …
