Cardiac Device Algorithms for Optimal Outcomes in Patients with Sick Sinus Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

Transcatheter Intervention Is Associated With Visceral Decongestion in Patients With Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 10, October 2026.
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

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 241, Issue 10, October 2026.
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

Nationwide Lifespan Trends in Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device Strategies in Japan: Age‐Dependent Changes in Transvenous and Epicardial Systems

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
Nationwide data revealed age‐dependent differences in CIED implantation strategies. Epicardial systems remain essential in pediatric and congenital heart disease care, whereas alternative technologies are increasingly adopted in older adult populations, reflecting evolving lifespan‐related device strategies.

Successful Treatment of Superior Vena Cava Syndrome Induced by Transvenous Permanent Pacemaker Implantation with Balloon Angioplasty

open access: yes, 2011
Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome is a rare but potentially lethal complication of transvenous permanent pacemaker implantation. The pathogenesis is unclear, but thrombosis and fibrotic constriction of the vessels are believed to be responsible for this ...

Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
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 ...

Driving Drugs Deeper: Force‐Driven Microneedle Systems for Active Therapy and Their Road Towards Clinical Implementation

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 55, 1 October 2026.
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

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
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.
