Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT After hybrid surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation, a 73‐year‐old‐man underwent pulmonary vein isolation, roof, and anterior mitral line using Farapulse. He developed atypical atrial flutter from reconnection of the anterior mitral line; four “stamps” were applied along the line with immediate termination and no recurrence at 1 year.

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.This manuscript explores empirical linkages between a suite of concentrations of chemicals of emerging concern (CEC) and hydroclimatological and spatial watershed characteristics. Our analysis was carried out at the regional scale allowing us to explore how complex patterns of land use relate to CEC concentrations.

Risk assessments for the insect repellents DEET and picaridin [PDF]
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2008 For the use of topical insect repellents, DEET and picaridin, human health risk assessments were conducted for various population subgroups. Acute, subchronic, and chronic dermal exposures were examined. No-observed-effect-levels (NOELs) of 200, 300, and 100mg/kg body weight (BW) were used as endpoints for DEET for acute, subchronic, and chronic ...

The mysterious multi-modal repellency of DEET [PDF]
Fly, 2015 DEET is the most effective insect repellent available and has been widely used for more than half a century. Here, I review what is known about the olfactory and contact mechanisms of DEET repellency. For mosquitoes, DEET has at least two molecular targets: Odorant Receptors (ORs) mediate the effect of DEET at a distance, while unknown chemoreceptors ...

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.The essential oil and major compounds from Piper cyrtopodon exhibit potent, long‐lasting repellent activity against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, combined with low cytotoxicity and favorable molecular docking interactions with odorant‐binding proteins. These findings highlight its potential for the development of alternative products for bite prevention ...
