The role of electrocardiography (ECG) in predicting mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not been sufficiently established. Research question: Is a normal ECG associated with a better prognosis than an abnormal ECG in patients with COPD? ECG parameters were assessed in patients enrolled in the Czech Multicenter Research Database of COPD. We assessed ECGs from baseline (August 2013) until December 31, 2019, or until death. The primary endpoint was 5-year overall survival depending on the ECG findings. A total of 300 subjects were enrolled in the study and 143 died during follow-up. This multicenter noninterventional observational prospective study revealed a significant difference in 5-year overall survival between COPD patients with normal ECGs and those with prognostically significant or other ECG abnormalities (76.8%, 38.2%, and 63.4%, respectively; P < 0.001). Patients with prognostically significant ECG abnormalities had a 2.537-fold greater mortality risk at 5 years than those with normal ECGs. In the COPD setting, patients with normal ECGs had a better prognosis than those with prognostically significant abnormalities suggesting that ECG may be a valuable tool for predicting mortality risk in these patients.

Megymenum tuberculatum Hemala Kocorek, sp. nov. (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Dinidoridae: Megymeninae: Megymenini) from Java (Indonesia) is described, illustrated and compared with M. brevicorne (Fabricius, 1787). Although the description is based on only one female specimen, the differences in the morphology of head, pronotum, and spermatheca are significant. In addition, M. brevicorne is briefly redescribed and its distribution and biology reviewed along with its first record from Nepal.

The genus Sternosternus Guillebeau, 1894 was described as an aberrant taxon of the family Phalacridae from Sumatra, based on the unique morphology of its meso- and metaventrite resembling those of Cetonia aurata Linnaeus, 1758 (Guillebeau 1894). It contained the single species, S. grouvellei Guillebeau, 1894, known from a single specimen. The identity of Sternosternus was long unclear, and nothing was published on the genus until Gimmel (2013) studied the type specimen and recognized it actually belonged to the family Hydrophilidae, likely being a member of the genus Dactylosternum Wollaston, 1854.
