Exploring the cause of conduction delays in patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot [PDF]
Aim Cardiac dyssynchrony in patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rToF) has been attributed to right bundle branch block (RBBB), fibrosis and/or the patches that are inserted during repair surgery.

Constructing co-Higgs bundles on CP^2 [PDF]
On a complex manifold, a co-Higgs bundle is a holomorphic vector bundle with an endomorphism twisted by the tangent bundle. The notion of generalized holomorphic bundle in Hitchin's generalized geometry coincides with that of co-Higgs bundle when the generalized complex manifold is ordinary complex.

Left orderability and taut foliations with one-sided branching [PDF]
For a closed orientable irreducible $3$-manifold $M$ that admits a co-orientable taut foliation with one-sided branching, we show that $\pi_1(M)$ is left orderable.

Left bundle branch area pacing: A promising modality for cardiac resynchronization therapy
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is recognized as the first-line management for patients with heart failure (HF) and conduction disorders. As a conventional mode for delivering CRT, biventricular pacing (BVP) improves cardiac function and reduces HF hospitalizations and mortality, but there are still limitations given the high incidence of a ...

Useful Electrocardiographic Signs to Support the Prediction of Favorable Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy [PDF]
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a cornerstone therapeutic opportunity for selected patients with heart failure. For optimal patient selection, no other method has been proven to be more effective than the 12-lead ECG, and hence ECG ...

Shrinking target equidistribution of horocycles in cusps [PDF]
Consider a shrinking neighborhood of a cusp of the unit tangent bundle of a noncompact hyperbolic surface of finite area, and let the neighborhood shrink into the cusp at a rate of $T^{-1}$ as $T \rightarrow \infty$. We show that a closed horocycle whose length $\ell$ goes to infinity or even a segment of that horocycle becomes equidistributed on the ...

Predictors of short-term clinical response to cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]
Aims: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces morbidity and mortality in patients with symptomatic heart failure and QRS prolongation but there is uncertainty about which patient characteristics predict short-term clinical response.

Adoption and outcomes for conduction system pacing (CSP), which includes His bundle pacing (HBP) or left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), in real-world settings are incompletely understood. We sought to describe real-world adoption of CSP lead implantation and subsequent outcomes.We performed an online cross-sectional survey on the implantation and ...
