Leadless Versus Transvenous Dual‐Chamber Pacemakers: Real‐World Evidence From AVEIR DR Coverage With Evidence Development Study

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background AVEIR DR, an industry‐first dual‐chamber leadless pacemaker (LP), provides continuous atrioventricular synchrony through implant‐to‐implant (i2i) communication between atrial and ventricular LP devices. It is important to evaluate the early real‐world comparative safety of AVEIR DR LP.

Overlapping forms of granulomatosis with polyangiitis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis: Insights from a European multicenter study

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) are distinct forms of antineutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)‐associated vasculitis (AAV). Increasing evidence suggests overlapping features, particularly in proteinase 3 (PR3)‐ANCA‐positive EGPA and GPA with eosinophilia.

Clinical profiles associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease in antisynthetase syndrome: A multicentric cohort study (TYPASS study)

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To assess factors associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD) (RP‐ILD) at time of ILD diagnosis in a multicentric retrospective cohort study of antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS). We used a complementary unsupervised approach, hierarchical clustering, to delineate distinct phenotypes among ASyS patients with ILD.
