Takotsubo syndrome: Comparison of data from the 2024 world literature and the 2016-2018 InterTak registry subgroup.

A comparison of data on patients with takotsubo syndrome (TTS), from the World literature (WL) 2024 with the InterTalk 2016-2018 registry subgroup showed a much younger population of patients suffering TTS triggered by physical stresses, with a high rate of neurological and other comorbidities in the former. While the rates of hypertension and hypercholesterolemia, and prescription of β-blockers, ACE-inhibitors/Angiotensin blockers, and aspirin at discharge were higher in InterTAK, resuscitation, cardiogenic shock, mechanical support, and thrombus formation was higher in WL.
