Comparative Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Multi‐Segment Thoracolumbar Tuberculosis Treated Through the Posterior “Detour Method” Versus the Combined Anterior–Posterior Approach: A Technique Note and Preliminary Retrospective Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
A simple schematic diagram; the red dashed arrow indicates the direction of surgical decompression. ABSTRACT Objective With the progress of spinal tuberculosis treatment theory and surgical tools, how to further improve the surgical efficacy, reduce surgical trauma, and increase safety in multi‐segmental spinal tuberculosis is still controversial ...

Modified Anatomical Ablation Strategy for Mitral Isthmus

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Durable mitral isthmus (MI) block remains challenging in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Ethanol infusion into the vein of Marshall (EI‐VOM) enhances efficacy, but the minimal endocardial ablation extent post‐EI‐VOM is undefined.

Intra‐Procedural Three‐Dimensional Rotational Angiography in Cryoballoon Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: An RCT

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 707-713, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The impact of various imaging techniques on the safety and outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation remains unclear. Intra‐procedural three‐dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) is the least used imaging method despite some benefits.

Beware of venous anomalies in young patients with sick sinus syndrome: A report of two cases of sick sinus syndrome with systemic venous anomalies

Heart Views, 2015
We report two young patients with symptomatic sick sinus syndrome admitted for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). On evaluation with echocardiography, one of them was found to have persistent left superior vena cava and venography showed absent ...

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

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

A new algorithm to diagnose atrial ectopic origin from multi lead ECG systems - insights from 3D virtual human atria and torso [PDF]

, 2015
Rapid atrial arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF) predispose to ventricular arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death and stroke. Identifying the origin of atrial ectopic activity from the electrocardiogram (ECG) can help to diagnose the early onset of ...
