Successful Removal of 15-year-old Pacemaker Leads by Weight and pulley method [PDF]
Extraction of old pacemaker leads remains a complex procedure owing to fibrotic encapsulation and lead adhesions. We report a case of extraction of 15-year-old pacemaker leads by weight and pulley method.

Long-term follow-up of the patients with pacemaker leads implanted through persistent left superior vena cava [PDF]
Introduction/Objective. Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common congenital malformation of the thoracic venous system and may often complicate cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) lead implantation. The purpose of this study

Pacemaker Dependency after Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review of Current Evidence. [PDF]
Severe postoperative conduction disturbances requiring permanent pacemaker implantation frequently occur following cardiac surgery. Little is known about the long-term pacing requirements and risk factors for pacemaker dependency in this population.We ...

A 59-year-old man suffered from a pacemaker infection. He was born with a complex cardiac malformation (dextrocardia, transposition of the great arteries, and atrial switch). He was implanted of a bicameral pacemaker for complete atrioventricular block in 1995. [...]

WD patients with dystonia were more susceptible to suffer from low BMI and highߚlevel neurological dysfunctions. It was the first time to apply the PSE of EEG to detect the cortical synaptic activity in WD patients. The cortical activities of the WD patients with dystonia seemed to be more chaotic during the eyes‐closed and reading tasks but lower ...

miR-786 Regulation of a Fatty-Acid Elongase Contributes to Rhythmic Calcium-Wave Initiation in \u3cem\u3eC. elegans\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
Background: Rhythmic behaviors are ubiquitous phenomena in animals. In C. elegans, defecation is an ultradian rhythmic behavior: every ∼50 s a calcium wave initiating in the posterior intestinal cells triggers the defecation motor program that comprises ...

Evidence of emerging BBB changes in mid‐age apolipoprotein E epsilon‐4 carriers
This study demonstrated a tendency towards BBB permeability in APOEε4 participants emerging from mid‐age, with quantitative differences observable on a number of the measures. Results from this study may help identify at‐risk populations at an early stage which will be crucial in facilitating the development of early interventions to change the ...

Entrainment of Coupled Oscillators on Regular Networks by Pacemakers [PDF]
We study Kuramoto oscillators, driven by one pacemaker, on $d$-dimensional regular topologies with nearest neighbor interactions. We derive the analytical expressions for the common frequency in the case of phase-locked motion and for the critical frequency of the pacemaker, placed at an arbitrary position in the lattice, so that above the critical ...

Bidirectional Cardio-Respiratory Interactions in Heart Failure
We investigated cardio-respiratory coupling in patients with heart failure by quantification of bidirectional interactions between cardiac (RR intervals) and respiratory signals with complementary measures of time series analysis.

Management of pacemaker patients after myocardial infarction
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause of death and disability in the population. Effective restoration of coronary blood flow in the infarction-dependent artery during percutaneous coronary intervention contributes to the regression of ...
