Immune checkpoint inhibitor‐induced arrhythmias: Mechanistic insights from clinical and preclinical studies

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy, but their efficacy continues to be limited by immune‐related adverse events. Among these, ICI‐induced cardiac arrhythmias are increasingly recognised as a major adverse reaction, encompassing a broad spectrum of clinical phenotypes, including conduction blocks, atrial fibrillation and

Invasive aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient: A retrospective case report and review of the literature

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries
Introduction: Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is rare in immunocompetent patients. We present the case of a 44-year-old female with IA invading the lungs, mediastinum, heart, and brain, with a disease duration of 11 years.

Lung Cancer Brain Metastasis: Brain Microenvironmental Adaptation, Therapeutic Resistance and Translational Strategies

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Lung cancer brain metastasis is shaped by dynamic crosstalk among tumor cells, the blood–brain barrier, glial and immune cells, neurons, and metabolic niches. This review integrates these mechanisms with therapeutic resistance, translational models, CNS delivery, and multidisciplinary treatment strategies.

“Bendy” stents help negotiate hairpin intracardiac curves [PDF]

, 2015
Simple transposition of the great arteries (TGA) occurs in 0.2 per 1000 live births. The condition is surgically repaired in the neonatal period by the arterial switch procedure (ASO) sometimes preceded by an atrial septostomy.

Cellular Dynamics and Dentine Bridge Formation Following Direct Pulp Capping With MTA and Biodentine in a Murine Model

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Formation of a mineralized dentine bridge is the hallmark of successful direct pulp capping (DPC). Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine are widely used capping materials, but in vivo evidence comparing their regenerative potential remains inconclusive. This study used a controlled murine model to compare dentine bridge formation

Spontaneous Migration of Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Into the Right Heart and Pulmonary Vasculature

JACC: Case Reports
A 73-year-old woman with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt presented for stress echocardiogram for evaluation of chest pain. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed an incidental right heart mass representing a migrated VP shunt.

Clinical Utility of Tissue Proximity Indication With a Variable‐Loop Circular Catheter for Pulmonary Vein Isolation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The variable‐loop circular catheter (VLCC, VARIPULSE) is a pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) catheter equipped with a Tissue Proximity Indication (TPI) function, which monitors catheter‐tissue contact. Although TPI‐negative sites have been reported to contribute to gap formation, no studies have evaluated the utility of real‐time function.

Intracardiac Extension of Lung Carcinoma Presenting as an Atrial Myxoma: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports
Left atrial (LA) mass is most commonly presumed to be a cardiac myxoma, as it is approximately 75% of primary cardiac tumors, with a strong predilection for the LA.

Percutaneous Vacuum-Assisted Aspiration of Mobile Caseous Mitral Annulus Calcification

JACC: Case Reports
A 68-year-old woman presented with an incidentally found intracardiac mass. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed a 26 × 8 mm mobile mass attached to a calcified posterolateral mitral annulus.
