Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transitory stress-related cardiomyopathy characterized by acute but reversible left ventricular failure. The disease most commonly affects postmenopausal women following a traumatic experience, often presenting as an acute myocardial infarction (MI), and its prevalence is increasing globally. Cardiovascular events such as Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and stroke have well-defined seasonal variations and are most common in the winter [[8], [9], [10]]. However, there is insufficient data on the impact of such climatic variations on the etiopathogenesis and outcomes of TTS-related hospitalization in the United States.
应激性心肌病(TTS)是一种与应激相关的短暂性心肌病,其特征为急性但可逆的左心室衰竭。该疾病最常影响经历创伤后的绝经后女性,常表现为急性心肌梗死(MI),且其全球患病率正在上升。急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)和中风等心血管事件有明确的季节性变化,且在冬季最为常见[[8], [9], [10]]。然而,关于此类气候变化对美国应激性心肌病相关住院的病因及预后影响的数据不足。
