Successful cryoablation of an incessant atrial tachycardia arising from the right atrial appendage

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2015
The right atrial appendage can be the origin of focal atrial tachycardias. Their ablation can be challenging owing to the complexity of the appendage anatomy.

Variability of the Left Atrial Appendage in Human Hearts. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Atrial fibrillation increases the risk of thrombus formation. It is commonly responsible for cerebral stroke whereas less frequently for pulmonary embolism.

72-year-old woman after a left atrial appendage occluder

, 2019
A 72-year-old woman presented for routine echocardiography 6 months following percutaneous insertion of a left atrial appendage occluder (LAAO) due to atrial fibrillation with contraindications to anticoagulation. The procedure was uncomplicated, and she

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Symptomatic giant left atrial aneurysm in a child : a rare entity [PDF]

, 2010
Isolated left atrial aneurysms are rare entities in clinical practice. Usually the condition is diagnosed in the second to fourth decades of life. The presence of such lesions in the pediatric age group is scantily described.

Chemically Doped Conductive Polymers for Wearable Health Monitoring

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Among conductive polymers, poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), polyaniline (PANI), and polypyrrole (PPy) are the most studied and applied. Chemical doping significantly boosts intrinsic conductivity and mechanical robustness.

Displacement of occluder after left atrial appendage closure: A case report

Clinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Atrial fibrillation is closely associated with thrombotic events. In non‐valvular atrial fibrillation, 90% of thrombi are formed by the left atrial appendage.

Factors associated with left atrial appendage thrombus (results of a retrospective analysis)

Journal of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University: Series Medicine
Background. Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia and, due to thrombus formation in the left atrial appendage, is associated with a significant increase in the risk of thromboembolic complications, primarily ischemic stroke, transient

The missing left atrial appendage [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography, 2012
A 34 year old man underwent a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) prior to implantation of a biventricular ICD and DC cardioversion, to exclude left atrium and left atrial appendage thrombus. He had a history of repaired tetralogy of Fallot as a child, Stickler syndrome, atrial flutter and was status post recent mitral valve replacement, pulmonary ...

Direct Gravity‐Induced Modulation of Cardiac Conduction Pathways Evidenced Through Propagation Features in Electrophysiological Mapping

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A high‐density wearable body‐surface potential mapping array reveals how gravity reshapes cardiac conduction in real time. By resolving spatiotemporal delay patterns invisible to conventional ECG, the platform uncovers posture‐dependent electrophysiological adaptations across the thorax.
