Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

High Defibrillation Threshold: The Science, Signs and Solutions
Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing has traditionally been an integral part of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. With the increasing number of patients receiving ICDs, physicians are encountering high DFT more often than ...

FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Minimally invasive, pericardial implantable cardioverter-defibrillator placement in a young child
We report the successful minimally invasive placement of a pericardial implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) in a 16-kg child. A transvenous ICD dual coil was advanced through a small subxiphoid incision and screwed into the oblique sinus ...

Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework
ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...

Abstract Introduction Unplanned hospital readmissions are associated with higher morbidity, mortality, and financial burden. This study evaluated the association between the use of remote biometric sensing devices (RBS) and all‐cause readmission and mortality rates among adult patients discharged from the hospital.

Mechanochemical Treatment of Cellulose: A Strategy for Developing Functional Biocomposite Materials
Mechanochemistry as an integrated approach for combining fiber defibrillation, activation, surface functionalization, and cellulose‐based composite fabrication in a single or reduced number of steps. ABSTRACT Cellulose‐based biocomposites are attracting increasing scientific and industrial interest due to their sustainable origin, biodegradability, and
