Outcomes of catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia in patients with sarcoidosis: Insights from the National Inpatient Sample database (2002–2018)

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 33, Issue 12, Page 2585-2598, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Introduction Data on utilization, major complications, and in‐hospital mortality of catheter ablation (CA) for sarcoidosis‐related ventricular tachycardia (VT) are limited. We sought to determine the outcomes of sarcoidosis‐related VT, and incidence and predictors of complications associated with the CA procedure.

Autologous Nonmyeloablative Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: Identifying Disease Risk Factors for Toxicity and Long‐Term Outcomes in a Prospective, Single‐Arm Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Two randomized trials for patients with diffuse systemic sclerosis (SSc) demonstrated an overall survival (OS) and event‐free survival (EFS) advantage of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) using CD34+ selected peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) compared with monthly cyclophosphamide (CY).

A European update on transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the COVID era

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 242, Issue 1, Page 50-63, January 2023., 2023
A timely review of key Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) device trials delineated by surgical risk. Abstract Minimally invasive approaches for aortic valve replacement are now at the forefront of pathological aortic valve treatment. New trials show comparability of these devices to existing therapies, not only in high‐risk surgical cohorts

Zero-Shot Fact-Checking with Semantic Triples and Knowledge Graphs [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Despite progress in automated fact-checking, most systems require a significant amount of labeled training data, which is expensive. In this paper, we propose a novel zero-shot method, which instead of operating directly on the claim and evidence sentences, decomposes them into semantic triples augmented using external knowledge graphs, and uses large ...

Mathematical Analysis of the role of Information on the Dynamics of Typhoid Fever [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
We consider a deterministic mathematical model to study the role of Information on the dynamics of Typhoid Fever. We analyses the model to study its boundedness and compute the threshold value known as basic reproduction number for determination of number of secondary cases and establishment of the the condition for local and global asymptotic ...
