Circulating mitochondrial cell-free DNA levels are associated with the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation

American Heart Journal Plus
Background: Although catheter ablation, including pulmonary vein isolation, is the primary nonpharmacological therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial arrhythmia often recurs.

An Intravesical Akkermansia muciniphila‐Based Chemo‐Immunotherapeutic Platform for Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila is engineered into an intravesical F127/doxorubicin platform that couples localized chemotherapy with immune remodeling. By inducing apoptosis, ferroptosis, and immunogenic cell death, this chemo‐immunotherapeutic system enhances dendritic‐cell maturation, antigen cross‐presentation, and tumor‐specific CD8+ T‐cell ...

Efficacy and Safety of Catheter Ablation in Very Elderly Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Short‐ To Mid‐Term Outcomes From a Multicenter Study

Journal of Arrhythmia
Background Catheter ablation has become a cornerstone of atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment. The prevalence of AF increases with age. However, research on catheter ablation in very elderly patients (age ≥ 80 years) is limited.

One‐Step Immobilized Phage Depolymerase Coatings for Catheter‐Related Bloodstream Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSI) caused by drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria remain a major clinical challenge. Here, a polydopamine‐assisted depolymerase coating degrades bacterial capsules and restores serum‐mediated killing, effectively suppressing biofilms and reducing bacterial burden in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo, presenting a

An Injectable ROS‐Responsive Nanozyme Hydrogel Regulates the Uterine Microenvironment to Prevent Intrauterine Adhesions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The injectable CeTA@GPP hydrogel is administered via intrauterine injection, forming a protective barrier. In the high ROS inflammatory microenvironment of injured endometrium, boronate ester cleavage triggers responsive CeTA release and local enrichment.
