Autonomic Profile Changes after Pulsed‐Field versus Thermal Ablation in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Catheter ablation is an established therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF), with thermal ablation as a standard modality. Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) is a nonthermal alternative that selectively ablates myocardium while sparing collateral tissue. Its comparative autonomic impact relative to thermal ablation remains unclear.

Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava Incidentally Recognized Postoperatively After Venous Port Placement

European Journal of Breast Health, 2016
Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common congenital venous anomaly of the thoracic venous system, occurring in 0.3% to 0.5% of individuals in the general population.

Isolation of persistent left superior vena cava during atrial fibrillation ablation

Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2015
Persistent left superior vena cava is a rarely seen anomaly but it may be an arrhythmogenic source for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, the complex anatomicregion between the left superior vena cava and the pulmonary veins may leads to ...

Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Obesity: Procedural and Clinical Outcomes

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Procedural and clinical outcomes in patients with obesity undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) have been mixed. Clinical data in the context of pulsed field ablation (PFA) are currently limited in this patient cohort.

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 ...

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 ...

Cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator upgrade with the atrial and left ventricular leads introduction through the persistent left superior vena cava facilitated by the balloon angioplasty [PDF]

The persistent left superior vena cava is the systemic venous system malformation observed in 0.1–0.5% ofthe general population. It can result in many obstacles in pacemaker implantation.The report presents a case of a 62-year-old male patient who ...

Prospective in silico trials identify combined SK and K2P channel block as an effective strategy for atrial fibrillation cardioversion

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In silico trials were conducted in 654 virtual patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) to assess the cardioversion efficacy of three pharmacological treatments: single SK and K2P channel block and combined SK+K2P channel inhibition. Left: representative virtual AF patient with the atria inside the torso.
