Efficacy of Sequential Hepatic Vein Embolization Following Portal Vein Embolization in Promoting Regeneration of Liver Volume and Function Before Right‐Sided Major Hepatectomy

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Sequential hepatic vein embolization (HVE) following portal vein embolization (PVE) significantly improves both the volume and function of the future remnant liver (FRL) compared to PVE alone. In this study, the FRL regeneration rates for volume and function were markedly higher and faster in the PVE–HVE group, with no differences in surgical outcomes ...

Unusual Case of Colonized Pacemaker Lead Presenting with Endocarditis, Hemoptysis and Tricuspid Valve Stenosis

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 2011
The present report is the first to describe a case of hemoptysis caused by an endocardial pacemaker lead. In addition, the patient presented with endocarditis and tricuspid valve stenosis.

Longitudinal Pancreaticojejunostomy Reconstruction Following Pancreaticoduodenectomy for Patients With Concomitant Chronic Pancreatitis: How I Do It

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This report details a modified reconstructive technique, longitudinal pancreaticojejunostomy (LPJ), following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for patients with both pancreatic head pathology and extensive chronic pancreatitis. This approach ensures wide‐area drainage of the remnant pancreatic duct, providing effective symptom relief and preserving long ...

Temporary Endocavitary Pacemakers and their Use and Misuse: The Least is Better

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2014
Temporary pacemakers are classically indicated for severe bradydysrhythmia, especially when the clinical settings require prompt intervention. Implantation of a temporary pacemaker is not a benign procedure since it may be associated with serious adverse

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 ...

How tropical Pacific surface cooling contributed to accelerated sea ice melt from 2007 to 2012 as ice is thinned by anthropogenic forcing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Over the past 40 years the Arctic sea ice minimum in September has declined. The period between 2007 and 2012 showed accelerated melt contributed to the record minima of 2007 and 2012.

Deterioration of autonomic neuronal receptor signaling and mechanisms intrinsic to heart pacemaker cells contribute to age‐associated alterations in heart rate variability in vivo

open access: yesAging Cell, 2016
We aimed to determine how age‐associated changes in mechanisms extrinsic and intrinsic to pacemaker cells relate to basal beating interval variability (BIV) reduction in vivo.

Challenges and Opportunities in Combining Ultrasound and Inductive Coupling for Energy Supply and Bidirectional Data Exchange in Bioelectronics Medicine Implant Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
In this contribution, it is shown that miniaturized nerve stimulation implants can be used in collaborative networks. Inductive links and ultrasound are combined to supply these implants with energy and data; the advantages and disadvantages of each method, as well as safety risks and possibilities for improvement are discussed and the best ...

Concealed malfunction of the temporary pacemaker

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2006
The 12-lead ECG shows sequential atrial and ventricular pacing (Figure 1A). A tracing, obtained simultaneously during pacemaker interrogation, disclosed pacemaker functioning as VDD mode (Figure 1B).

Cardiac magnetic resonance in a patient with MRI-conditional pacemaker

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2013
An implanted pacemaker is generally considered a contraindication for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The increasing number of indications for MRI and the rising prevalence of implanted cardiac pacemakers have prompted the recent development of MRI ...
