Differing impacts of cardiac implantable electronic device leads on tricuspid regurgitation. [PDF]
J ArrhythmThis study evaluates the impact of different CIED lead types (ICD, RV‐PM, His‐PM) on the progression of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). The effect of CIED leads on TR grade represents a spectrum related to the type of lead traversing the tricuspid valve.

“Electrocardiogram Changes with Elevated Troponins Mimicking MI: All that Glitters is not Gold” [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2018 Temporary transvenous pacing is often required as life saving measure in conditions such as Stokes Adams attack and symptomatic bradyarrhythmias. Bradyarrhythmias are also known complications of acute Myocardial Infarction (MI), which can be transient or

Quality of Life in Autistic Children: Discrepancies Between Self- and Caregiver-Proxy Reports and Associations With Individual Characteristics. [PDF]
Autism ResABSTRACT Quality of life (QoL) is important for everyone and has been identified as a priority for autistic people. However, studies typically focus on caregiver‐proxy‐reported QoL and its related individual characteristics, even though self‐ and caregiver‐proxy‐reported QoL may differ in autistic children. In 74 autistic children (5.04–10.99 years old,
