Characterisation of nocturnal arrhythmia avalanche dynamics: Insights from generalised linear model analysis

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Summary Nocturnal arrhythmia avalanche (NAA) episodes, characterised by transient non‐sustained cardiac arrhythmias during sleep, have been demonstrated as a predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. However, their dynamics and association with sleep architecture and events remain unclear.

Comparative Efficacy of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Mandibular Advancement Devices in the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a prevalent condition linked to various health issues, including cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline. This systematic review evaluates the comparative efficacy and patient adherence of two primary treatment modalities: Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Mandibular Advancement Devices.

Is Adipose Tissue Inflammation the Culprit of Obesity‐Associated Comorbidities?

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In individuals with obesity, the onset of chronic comorbidities coincides with the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in various tissue beds. As obesity progresses, adipose tissue becomes increasingly dysfunctional causing chronic low‐grade inflammation.

Fundamentals of System Design for Cardiac Pulsed Field Ablation: Optimization of Safety, Efficacy, and Usability

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The goal of a cardiac pulsed field ablation (PFA) system is to provide safe, effective, and usable therapy for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. Achieving this goal is a complex exercise in system design, requiring optimization of catheter, waveform, and dosing. This optimization is often iterative, as myriad design factors are balanced to

A teacher-guided early-learning method for medical image segmentation from noisy labels

open access: yesComplex & Intelligent Systems
The success of current deep learning models depends on a large number of precise labels. However, in the field of medical image segmentation, acquiring precise labels is labor-intensive and time-consuming.

Lesion Formation in Cardiac Pulsed‐Field Ablation: Acute to Chronic Cellular Level Changes

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) emerges as a promising therapy for atrial arrhythmias, an understanding of the cellular injury to cardiac tissue is critical to evaluating and interpreting results for each PFA system. This review aims to detail the mechanism of cell death for PFA, compare the cell death mechanism to thermal ablation modalities ...

Addition of Atrial Myopathy to HATCH Score for Predicting New‐Onset Atrial Fibrillation After Ablation of Atrial Flutter

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The available risk prediction models are inadequate to identify a true low‐risk patient for developing new‐onset atrial fibrillation (AF) after typical atrial flutter (AFL) ablation. We aimed to determine whether adding markers of atrial myopathy to HATCH score (hypertension, age ≥75 years, transient ischemic attack/stroke, chronic ...

Geocaching MOOC’s and the investigation of virtual places [PDF]

open access: yes
Whereigo is a form of Geocaching; a GPS based treasure hunt game that is played throughout the world. Participants find hidden containers, called geocaches, using GPS coordinates and then share their experiences online.
