Clinical and radiographic predictors of cardiovascular implantable electronic device lead failure at the time of initial implantation

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Objective To assess the clinical and radiographic factors associated with lead failure by comparing subjects with lead failure within 10 years of implantation with an implant‐year‐matched group without lead failure.

Genetically engineered cardiac pacemaker: stem cells transfected with HCN2 gene and myocytes - a model

open access: yes, 2005
Artificial biological pacemakers were developed and tested in canine ventricles. Next steps will require obtaining oscillations sensitive to external regulations, and robust with respect to long term drifts of expression levels of pacemaker currents and ...

Conversion to Cardiac Surgery During Elective and Urgent Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an established treatment for severe aortic stenosis. However, the need for unplanned conversion to cardiac surgery (CS) during TAVI remains an infrequent but critical event. It is unclear whether this risk is higher in patients undergoing urgent procedures.

Stimuli‐Responsive Chemical Systems That Mimic Biological Dynamics

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Chemists are designing synthetic systems that mimic life's dynamic behaviors, such as motion, sensing, adaptation, and compartmentalization, by integrating reaction networks with stimuli like light, pH, and chemical fuels. This mini‐review surveys molecular machines, responsive materials, nucleic acid networks, and artificial cells, highlighting how ...

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

eGFR slope as predictor of mortality in heart failure patients

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1217-1226, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) leads to an imbalance between heart and kidney function, resulting in poor outcomes. However, the prognostic significance of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) trajectory in HF patients remains unclear. We analysed electronic health records (EHRs) of real‐world HF patients, assessing eGFR trajectories and ...

Are physiological oscillations physiological?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

The Vestibular Implant Input Interacts with Residual Natural Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2017
ObjectivePatients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) can still have residual “natural” function. This might interact with “artificial” vestibular implant input (VI-input). When fluctuating, it could lead to vertigo attacks.
