Safety and Efficacy of Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Elderly Patients
Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) was evaluated in 479 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), 52% paroxysmal. Among 104 patients > 75 years, complication rates and 6‐ and 12‐month arrhythmia‐free survival were not significantly different from younger patients. Age did not predict recurrence. PFA appears safe and effective in elderly AF patients.

Autonomization of Microvascular Free Flaps in Reconstructive Surgery: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background Microvascular free tissue transfer is a key technique in reconstructive surgery, enabling functional and aesthetic restoration of complex defects. While initial flap survival relies on the vascular pedicle, some flaps may become independent through a process known as autonomization, where new vascular connections form between the ...
