Comparing clinical manifestations, treatment strategies and outcomes of Staphylococcus lugdunensis bacteraemia versus Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia – a retrospective cohort study

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase‐negative Staphylococcus that has been increasingly recognised as a significant pathogen capable of causing invasive infections similar to Staphylococcus aureus. Data comparing the clinical manifestations and outcomes of S. lugdunensis bacteraemia to S. aureus bacteraemia remain limited. This

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Results of heart valve replacement with the SORIN prosthesis.

Texas Heart Institute journal, 1987
From March 1977 to December 1981, 872 patients at our institution underwent valve replacement with a pyrolytic carbon tilting disc prosthesis manufactured in Italy by SORIN-Biomedica. To verify the performance characteristics of this prosthesis, we analyzed the intermediate-term results obtained over a cumulative total of 3,041 patient-years (pt-yr) of

Segmental Snare Traction Technique for Helix‐Fixed Leadless Pacemaker Implantation Across a Repaired Tricuspid Annulus

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Helix‐fixed leadless pacemaker delivery can be challenging after tricuspid annuloplasty with a rigid ring. An 80‐year‐old woman with prior mitral valve repair, tricuspid annuloplasty (26‐mm MC ring), and Maze III surgery presented with syncope due to atrial fibrillation with a slow ventricular response. Standard maneuvers failed to advance the

Around and Through: Successful Mitral Paravalvular Leakage Closure Using Both Anterograde and Retrograde Approaches

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 2179-2182, June 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a recognized complication after surgical mitral valve replacement and may cause heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, or hemolysis when moderate or severe. Although redo surgery is the definitive treatment, it carries substantial risk in elderly patients or those with multiple prior cardiac surgeries.
