Impact of Leadless Pacemaker Therapy on Cardiac and Atrioventricular Valve Function Through 12 Months of Follow-Up.

open access: yesCirculation: Arrhythmia and Electrophysiology, 2019
BACKGROUND Endocardial pacemaker leads and right ventricular (RV) pacing are well-known causes of tricuspid valve, mitral valve, and cardiac dysfunction. Lead-related adverse consequences can potentially be mitigated by leadless pacemaker (LP) therapy by

‘Twiddling’ of the pacemaker resulting in lead dislodgement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Twiddler’s syndrome is a rare condition in which patient manipulation of the pulse generator within its pocket may result in coiling of the lead and lead dislodgement, thereby causing pacemaker malfunction.

[18F]Fluorodeprenyl‐D2 PET as a Tool to Monitor Disease Activity in GAD65‐Ab Autoimmune Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate [18F]fluorodeprenyl‐D2 ([18F]F‐DED) positron‐emission tomography (PET) imaging as a biomarker of disease activity in autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies. Methods [18F]F‐DED PET was performed in 25 GAD65‐AIE patients and 8 controls using dynamic (0–60 min) and ...

Left bundle branch area pacing optimized cardiac resynchronization – a promise of way better?

open access: yesCardiologia Hungarica
Conduction system pacing may revolutionize conventional pacemaker therapy. Both His- and left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) can prevent right ventricular pacing induced cardiomyopathy in bradycardia pacemaker indications, furtheron they might improve

Canonical Wnt5b signaling directs outlying Nkx2.5+ mesoderm into pacemaker cardiomyocytes

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2019
Summary Pacemaker cardiomyocytes that create the sinoatrial node are essential for the initiation and maintenance of proper heart rhythm. However, illuminating developmental cues that direct their differentiation has remained particularly challenging due

Microfabricated Anisotropic Myobundles for the Scalable Production of Cardiac Tissue Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlling the anisotropy of cardiac tissue remains an outstanding challenge in the field of cardiac tissue engineering. Here, we introduce an approach to generate anisotropic cardiac myobundles using cell‐adhesive, synthetic, electrospun fibers and stem cell‐derived cardiac fibroblasts.
