Cardiac Device Algorithms for Optimal Outcomes in Patients with Sick Sinus Syndrome [PDF]
Sick sinus syndrome (SSS) is a relatively common chronic condition affecting the electrical conduction system of the heart. In the absence of any reversible cause of SSS, the most effective treatment is implantation of a permanent pacemaker to maintain ...

Patients with severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation were assigned to transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention. Most patients showed discontinuous renal vein blood flow (arrows, Grade IV°) prior to TTVI (baseline). At follow‐up after 1 to 3 months, patients showed continuous renal vein blood flow profile (arrows, Grade I°) representing a marked ...

Molecular and Cellular Underpinnings of Primary Hypertension: An Integrative Mechanistic Framework
ABSTRACT Hypertension is a highly prevalent clinical condition and a major contributor to global cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite extensive research, its complex and multifaceted pathogenesis is yet to be fully elucidated. This paper explores the updated understanding of primary hypertension as a systemic disorder rather than an isolated

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...

Force‐driven microneedles are presented as active therapeutic microdevices that overcome the diffusion limits of conventional patches. By integrating gas generation, magnetic actuation, cavitation, or iontophoresis, these systems drive payloads deeper into tissue, enabling faster, more controlled delivery and highlighting key design principles and ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
