Safety and Efficacy of Right‐ Versus Left‐Sided Transvenous Lead Extraction
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed for malfunction or infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices. Because of anatomic differences, TLE for right‐sided (RS) electrodes may differ in outcome. This study aimed to evaluate whether RS TLE differs in patient characteristics and outcomes compared ...

SGLT2i use and fracture risk compared with DPP4i in patients with T2DM

Most previous studies have focused on treatment‐naïve patients, despite many patients in routine clinical practice initiating SGLT2i therapy after prior dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitor (DPP4i) use.
