Lower risk of peripheral venous catheter-related bloodstream infection by hand insertion
Introduction Little is known about the bloodstream infection (BSI) risk associated with short-term peripheral venous catheters (PVCs) and no large study investigated the insertion site-related risk for PVC-BSI.

PCI comes to age as age increasingly comes to PCI [PDF]
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has evolved as the standard procedure for the treatment of acute coronary syndromes and for the majority of situations with stable coronary artery disease. Patients aged 75 and older represent one third of those hospitalised with acute ischaemic events and account for more than half of all cardiac deaths.

: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) of Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO) represents the most challenging procedure in modern endovascular treatments. In recent years, the success rate of CTO PCI has substantially improved, owing to increasing operator expertise and advancements in CTO equipment and algorithms as well as the development of expert ...

Attosecond spectroscopy reveals alignment dependent core-hole dynamics in the ICl molecule
Here the authors report a study measuring lifetimes of core-hole states of ICl molecule using attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. They find that lifetimes depend on the alignment of the orbital relative to the molecular axis.

Clinical impact of FFR‐guided PCI compared to angio‐guided PCI from the France PCI registry
AbstractObjectivesWe sought to compare, in a national French registry (FrancePCI), the clinical impact of fractional flow reserve (FFR)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with angio‐guided PCI at 1 year.BackgroundFFR has become the invasive gold standard to quantify myocardial ischemia generated by a coronary stenosis in patients ...
