Dual versus split right coronary artery: What is there in the name?

International Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2021
Congenital coronary artery anomalies are rare which are generally detected incidentally during coronary angiograms. Double right coronary artery (RCA) is one such rare coronary anomaly, and various other terms are being used to describe it such as dual ...

Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Intracardiac Echocardiography and Coronary Angiography During Ventricular Ablation From the Aortic Cusps and Commissures: Marked Inter‐Center Variability Without an Observed Coronary Injury Signal

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Catheter ablation of premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) arising from the aortic cusps and commissures is effective but performed near the coronary ostia, raising concern for coronary injury. Adjunct imaging with intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and coronary angiography is variably used, and ...

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 616-630, April 2025.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

NT‐proBNP as a Predictor of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Cryoballoon, Radiofrequency and Pulsed‐Field Ablation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Central Illustration: In a study investigating AF recurrence after PVI with RFA, CBA, and PFA, elevated NT‐proBNP emerged as a strong predictor of recurrence within the first year, outperforming other clinical measures. Color‐coded recurrence‐free survival probability charts derived from these data are proposed to support individualized clinical ...

PFA Under Deep Sedation and Non‐Invasive Monitoring in Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical data about pulsed field ablation (PFA) under deep sedation among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are limited, while the optimal periprocedural monitoring is not established. We report our experience in PFA among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and OSA, using a continuous non‐invasive respiratory and ...

Navigating the Zero Fluoroscopy Frontier: Current Tools, Evidence and Future Directions in Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...
