Guideline for Medication Management of Distressing Symptoms in Older Patients Receiving End‐of‐Life Palliative Care

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Older patients receiving end‐of‐life palliative care often present with multiple geriatric syndromes, frailty, and comorbid symptom burden, resulting in a high risk of medication‐related harm. This guideline focuses on pharmacological management of distressing symptoms in older patients receiving end‐of‐life or hospice‐oriented palliative care,

3D transparent technology displays the developmental patterns of ductus arteriosus morphology in chicken embryos before and after birth

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
At the eighth week of human embryonic development, 3D transparent imaging enables clear visualization of the outflow tract's morphological features, revealing its anatomical components in detail. Abstract The ductus arteriosus (DA) is a critical fetal vascular structure that shunts blood from the pulmonary artery to the aorta, bypassing the non ...

Hypermanganesemia in Children With Liver and Portosystemic Circulation Disorders: A Systematic Review

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Children with chronic liver disease and portosystemic circulation disorders may have long‐term neurocognitive problems. Hypermanganesemia, reported in this group, could be a contributor. This systematic review aimed to characterise liver and portosystemic circulation disorders associated with hypermanganesemia and reported neurocognitive ...

Navigating the Zero Fluoroscopy Frontier: Current Tools, Evidence and Future Directions in Electrophysiology Procedures

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Graphical Abstract ABSTRACT Fluoroscopy has traditionally been the mainstay imaging technique for guidance during electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures. The numerous disadvantages associated with radiation exposure for both operators and patients have created the need for zero‐fluoroscopy (ZF) approaches. Today, electrophysiologists have access to

Cryoballoon Versus Radiofrequency Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Trials

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone achieves modest arrhythmia freedom in persistent atrial fibrillation (PeAF). Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) offers a single‐shot alternative to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) that streamlines procedural workflow.

Persistent Left Cranial Vena Cava in a Dog [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Persistent left cranial vena cava with absent right cranial vena cava is a rare anomaly. Congenitally persistent left cranial vena cava is the most common variant of the systemic venous return to the heart, embryologically resulting from ...

Lead‐Associated Superior Vena Cava Syndrome: Diagnostic Delay and the Role of Invasive Pressure Measurements

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome is an uncommon complication of transvenous cardiac device leads. Diagnosis may be challenging due to gradually developing and nonspecific symptoms. Furthermore, anatomical imaging does not always reflect the hemodynamic significance of venous stenosis.
