Efficacy and Safety of Pulsed‐Field Versus High‐Power Short‐Duration Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis With Reconstructed Time‐to‐Event Data

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) and high‐power short‐duration (HPSD) ablation (45–90 W) are emerging technologies in atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment, both achieving durable pulmonary vein isolation. We aim to investigate the efficacy and safety of PFA versus HPSD ablation.

Tolerance for uncertainty and medical students' specialty choices: A myth revisited

Medical Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In 1962, the idea emerged that medical students' tolerance of uncertainty could determine their specialty choice. While some studies supported this claim, others refuted it, often using independently developed instruments. We explored whether the reported link between specialty choice and uncertainty tolerance is more myth than ...

Life-threatening constrictive pericarditis accompanied by synthetic cannabinoid use: A case report and literature review

Journal of Acute Disease
Rationale: Synthetic cannabinoids are increasingly used as recreational drugs and have been associated with adverse cardiovascular effects. However, reports of synthetic cannabinoids accompanied by constrictive pericarditis are limited. Patient’s concern:

Role of Autonomic Dysfunction in Initiating Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in a Canine Sterile Pericarditis Model

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Autonomic dysfunction plays a significant role in initiating postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) by causing atrial ectopic triggers, potentially through mechanisms such as increased sympathetic activity and altered vagal tone.

Transient constrictive pericarditis in Bruton disease: a case report

Российский кардиологический журнал
Introduction. Constrictive pericarditis is a long-term consequence of any pathological process developing in the pericardium due to fibrinous thickening and calcification of its layers, which prevents normal cardiac diastolic filling. One of its forms is

Voltage‐Gradient Mapping‐Guided Slow Pathway Ablation in Typical Atrioventricular Nodal Re‐Entrant Tachycardia

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction High‐density mapping is useful for common atrioventricular nodal re‐entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) ablation. This study aimed to evaluate the effective targets for slow pathway (SP) ablation using voltage‐gradient mapping. Methods Fifty‐two patients diagnosed with slow/fast AVNRT were enrolled.

Submaximal 2‐day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and post‐exertional symptom exacerbation in people with long COVID

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long COVID has a complex pathology and a heterogeneous symptom profile that impacts quality of life and functional status. Post‐exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE) affects one‐third of people living with long COVID, but the physiological basis of impaired physical function remains poorly understood. Sixty‐eight people (age (mean ± SD): 50 ±
