Direct and indirect effects of different dentifrices on the initial bacterial colonization of enamel in situ overnight

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 178-187, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the direct and indirect influence of fluoridated toothpastes and fluoride‐free toothpaste with hydroxyapatite (HAP) as active ingredient on initial bacterial colonization on enamel in situ. Methods For this clinical‐experimental pilot study, eight subjects were instructed to brush their teeth ...

Management of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices in Patients With Severe Symptomatic Tricuspid Regurgitation—Proposed Algorithm and Selected Case Examples

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Management of severe TR includes treatment of the underlying cause(s), medical therapy and less commonly surgical tricuspid valve repair. Newer transcatheter tricuspid valve repair devices show promise for those patients who remain symptomatic with ...

Novel Transthoracic Pulmonary Valve Implantation Using Self‐Expanding Salus Valve: A Prospective Study of Safety and Mid‐Term Outcomes

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) has emerged as a valuable treatment for severe pulmonary regurgitation (PR). The Salus valve (Balance Medical Technology Co. Ltd., Beijing, China) represents a novel self‐expanding valve stent designed for deployment through a transthoracic approach with a small subxiphoid incision ...

Outcomes of catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia in patients with sarcoidosis: Insights from the National Inpatient Sample database (2002–2018)

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 33, Issue 12, Page 2585-2598, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Introduction Data on utilization, major complications, and in‐hospital mortality of catheter ablation (CA) for sarcoidosis‐related ventricular tachycardia (VT) are limited. We sought to determine the outcomes of sarcoidosis‐related VT, and incidence and predictors of complications associated with the CA procedure.

Synthesis of a Set of Staphylococcus Aureus Capsular Polysaccharide Type 1 Oligosaccharides Carrying Taurine Esters

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Staphylococcus aureus serotype 1 is a highly virulent pathogen and the capsular polysaccharide (CP1) has been shown to play an important role in virulence and be a target for opsonic antibodies. We here describe the synthesis of a set of CP1 oligosaccharides, varying in length and with different taurination patterns. Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is a

Evaluation of lead‐based echodensities on transesophageal echocardiogram in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 7-13, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Introduction Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is recommended to rule out endocarditis in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). A lead‐based echodensity (LBE), however, is often found on TEE in patients with a CIED and may not represent an infection.

Endocarditis at the Millennium [PDF]

The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1999
The members of the Interplanetary Society (Pus Club) have made significant contributions to the understanding of the pathogenesis of infective endocarditis (IE). Although the incidence of IE has essentially remained unchanged, the spectrum and characteristics of patients potentially affected by this disorder are expanding.

Refractory heart failure due to acquired aortic coarctation after total arch replacement: find the right antidote!

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract A 31‐year‐old male presented with unexplainable symptoms of heart failure including recurrent fatigue and orthopnoea after total arch replacement for type A aortic dissection 2 months ago. Computed tomography angiography detected a severe intra‐luminal stenosis, and we successfully implanted a balloon‐expandable stent to dilate the stenosis ...

Achromobacter species endocarditis: A Case Report and Literature Review

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2011
Endocarditis due to Achromobacter species is a rare, yet serious, endovascular infection. Achromobacter species infective endocarditis is associated with underlying immunodeficiencies or prosthetic heart valves and devices. A case of prosthetic pulmonary
