Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Clinical Prediction Model for Unsuccessful Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
A clinical prediction model based on NIVCD, interventricular septal thickness, and right atrial area enables individualized estimation of unsuccessful LBBAP and may help guide procedural strategy. ABSTRACT Introduction Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) has rapidly become a preferred form of cardiac physiologic pacing; however, predictors of ...

Incidence and Predictors of Successful Lead Extraction With Short Active Mechanical Extraction Sheaths Only

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is increasingly performed for malfunction or infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). Active mechanical rotational sheaths facilitate extraction and are available in short and long sizes, but it is unclear how many patients short active mechanical extraction sheaths ...

A Simplified Epicardial Ablation Strategy for Ventricular Tachycardia Integrating CT‐Derived Epicardial Adipose Tissue Into Three‐Dimensional Electroanatomic Mapping

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) can attenuate electrograms and limit lesion formation during epicardial ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Case Presentation We developed a simplified workflow using predefined CT attenuation values to integrate EAT into the CARTO 3 system. We applied this approach in three patients with dilated

Pre‐anaesthetic risk assessment and management of dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease: a spectrum of care narrative review

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Myxomatous mitral valve disease, an acquired valvular degeneration, is the most common cardiac disorder in dogs, affecting approximately 10% of dogs in primary care veterinary practice. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease frequently require anaesthesia for routine procedures.

BSAVA Petsavers Article: Validation of an ELISA assay for measurement of the metabolite of serotonin, 5‐hydroxyindole acetic acid (5‐HIAA), in canine urine

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives Serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptophan), implicated in a number of canine diseases, has a very short half‐life in the serum. Urine concentration of its breakdown product 5‐hydroxyindole acetic acid after an 8 hour fast is a more reliable measure of circulating serotonin in humans.

Impact of Dental Status on Heart Transplantation Outcomes

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral infections and poor dental health may contribute to systemic complications after heart transplantation, yet data on their impact is limited. In the absence of standardized dental guidelines for transplant candidates, this study evaluated preoperative dental status and its association with post‐transplant outcomes.
