Prognostic Impact of Spontaneous Conversion to Sinus Rhythm in Patients With Symptomatic Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: A Propensity‐Matched Follow‐Up Study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 36, Issue 12, Page 3222-3230, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) patients do not invariably progress to persistent AF, with a consistent group of patients showing AF regression during follow‐up. The prognostic implications of spontaneous conversion (SCV) to sinus rhythm (SR) in those patients has never been evaluated yet.

Nanocrystalline Diamond as a Coating for Joint Implants: Cytotoxicity and Biocompatibility Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Nanomaterials, Volume 2008, Issue 1, 2008., 2008
Nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) coatings combine a very low surface roughness with the outstanding diamond properties, such as superlative hardness, low self‐friction coefficient, high wear and corrosion resistance, and biotolerance, which are ideal features for applications in medicine (knee and hip replacement) and surgical tools.

Magnetic Actuation Under DC and AC Fields of Thermoplastic Polyurethane With Strontium Hexaferrite

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 13, July 8, 2025.
Magnetic thermoplastic polyurethane composites with strontium hexaferrite (SrFe12O19) are produced through a solvent‐free melt‐mixing technique. These composites display a magnetomechanical actuation mechanism, being able to deform (bend and twist) through DC and AC magnetic fields, showcasing their potential as a promising material for the fabrication
