Australian clinical practice guideline: diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare condition. The pathogenesis is incompletely understood; however, interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) is a major mediator. The clinical presentation is heterogeneous, from mild constitutional symptoms to severe multi‐organ failure.

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

Prospective Trial of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of High Dominant Frequencies After Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Non‐Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAD‐AF Trial): A Multicenter, Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
In persistent AF, adjunctive dominant frequency‐guided ablation after pulmonary vein isolation did not significantly improve outcomes. Limited overlap between high‐frequency sites and low‐voltage areas suggests functional–structural dissociation, while right atrial low‐voltage burden predicts recurrence.

Zero‐Contrast Versus Contrast‐Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: A Comparative Analysis of Procedural and Long‐Term Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Zero‐contrast left atrial appendage occlusion yielded high procedural success and similar periprocedural adverse event rates compared to the contrast‐guided approach. At 45‐day follow‐up, successful LAA closure (defined as peri‐device leak ≤ 5 mm) and device‐related thrombus rates were similar.

Implementation of a Standardized Nurse‐Guided Heparinization Protocol Improves Anticoagulation During Left Atrial Ablation Procedures

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
A standardized, nurse‐led heparinization protocol significantly improves the speed, consistency, and precision of achieving therapeutic ACT levels during left atrial ablation, while reducing excessive anticoagulation and maintaining a comparable safety profile to conventional operator‐guided dosing.
