Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

Efficacy and Safety of the Sync‐AV II Temporary Cardiac Pacing Catheter (EASY II Trial)
ABSTRACT Background Cardiac pacing is crucial for patients with hemodynamically unstable bradyarrhythmias. For most indications, transvenous pacemakers are used to pace the right ventricle, causing atrioventricular dyssynchrony, which may lead to significant hemodynamic compromise.

Safety Outcomes of Hybrid Open Chest Transvenous Lead Extraction: A Multicenter Experience
ABSTRACT Background: Hybrid open chest transvenous lead extraction (TLE), combining surgical and endovascular techniques, may be utilized in patients requiring concomitant cardiac surgery or with high‐risk features for endovascular extraction. Outcome data in this population remains sparse.

Photodynamic inactivation increases cell death rate on persistent Staphylococcus aureus
Persistent bacteria have the ability to survive extended periods of antibiotic stress by entering a metabolically dormant state. This study investigated persistence formation in two S. aureus strains and evaluated the effects of PDI using curcumin. Post‐PDI time‐kill assays conducted after metabolic recovery showed a higher rate of bacterial death ...
