GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Cancer Risk in Obesity Treatment
Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Obesity is a well‐established risk factor for numerous cancers, with body habitus, especially central adiposity, contributing to increased cancer incidence and worse prognosis. Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs), initially developed to treat Type 2 diabetes, have rapidly gained prominence as powerful anti‐obesity agents due ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.We developed and validated the DOORS‐GHF, a novel dedicated operative risk scoring system for geriatric hip fracture, which outperformed existing scores with superior predictive accuracy and clinical utility. ABSTRACT Objective With China's accelerating population aging, geriatric hip fractures pose a growing clinical challenge. High comorbidity burden

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We hereby report a case of a 75‐year‐old patient who developed a large left‐sided hemopneumothorax after a routine dual‐chamber pacemaker insertion. The rare complication was caused by the pacing lead injuring the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) after perforating the right ventricle.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Leadless pacemakers traditionally rely on femoral venous access, which may be limited in patients with unfavorable IVC anatomy, prior interventions, or situations where preserving femoral access is preferred. Internal jugular (IJ) access offers an alternative route, but real‐world data on IJ implantation of single‐ and dual‐chamber ...

Late Extraction of Micra AV and Implantation of Right Atrial Leadless Pacemaker
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Tine‐based leadless pacemakers have been commercially implanted over the last 10 years. Retrieval of older devices is rarely discussed and based on rare case reports only. Methods A retrospective review of an extraction case of a Micra AV leadless pacemaker was performed. Internal Review Board approval was obtained.

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome is an uncommon complication of transvenous cardiac device leads. Diagnosis may be challenging due to gradually developing and nonspecific symptoms. Furthermore, anatomical imaging does not always reflect the hemodynamic significance of venous stenosis.

Management of Left Atrial Appendage Thrombi and Spontaneous Echo Contrast
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background To analyze the efficacy and safety of various anticoagulation strategies/regimen used for managing thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage. Methods Thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in the left atrial appendage was detected via transesophageal echocardiography in 83 patients, most often during a stroke

A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has emerged as a non‐pharmacological alternative to oral anticoagulation (OAC) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Following the publication of recent CHAMPION‐AF and CLOSURE‐AF trials, an updated synthesis of evidence is warranted to clarify the long‐term ...
