Impact of Left Bundle Branch Pacing on Left Ventricular Mechanical Efficiency
The analysis of myocardial work in 115 consecutive patients receiving left bundle branch area pacing revealed a strong correlation between all myocardial work indices recorded during spontaneous or paced rhythm. Conversely, no significant correlations were observed between myocardial work indices and the R wave peak time in V6 or the V6–V1 interpeak ...

Metrology of two wearable sleep trackers against polysomnography in patients with sleep complaints
Summary Sleep trackers are used widely by patients with sleep complaints, however their metrological validation is often poor and relies on healthy subjects. We assessed the metrological validity of two commercially available sleep trackers (Withings Activité/Fitbit Alta HR) through a prospective observational monocentric study, in adult patients ...
