Efficacy and Safety of Catheter Ablation in Very Elderly Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Short‐ To Mid‐Term Outcomes From a Multicenter Study

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 3, June 2026.
Patients aged ≥ 80 years with atrial fibrillation underwent catheter ablation. At 2 years, the recurrence‐free survival rate was 85.8% in paroxysmal AF and 63.6% in persistent AF (p = 0.024), and periprocedural complications occurred in 12.0%, including severe complications in 3.3%.

Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing vs. Biventricular Pacing for Cardiac Resynchronization: Propensity Score Analysis

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 3, June 2026.
In this two‐center propensity score–weighted cohort of de novo CRT recipients, left bundle branch area pacing was associated with comparable resynchronization and clinical outcomes to biventricular pacing, with fewer late device‐related complications. ABSTRACT Background Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) has emerged as a promising alternative to ...

A Novel Surgical Approach to Induce an Ankle Joint Contracture in Rats

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Our primary aim was to establish a novel surgical immobilization approach to induce a persistent ankle plantar‐flexion contracture in the Wistar rat. A stainless steel suture was placed in experimental animals (n = 14) and pulled taut between the calcaneal bone and the knee joint, restricting dorsal‐flexion while still allowing for limited ...

Role of Pediatric Otolaryngologist in Pediatric Tracheostomy Code Blue Cases: A New Safety Initiative

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2769-2776, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective A “Code Blue” is a term to activate an alarm for the resuscitation team for a patient who has a cardiopulmonary arrest. The role of a pediatric otolaryngologist in a tracheostomy‐related code blue case is not clearly defined. We aim to describe the role of pediatric otolaryngologists in pediatric tracheostomy code blue (PTCB) cases ...

Structural Lung Disease in Children and Adolescents With Severe Neurological Disorders

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Children with severe neurological disorders are at risk of secondary respiratory morbidity due to impaired airway clearance and dysphagia, but systematic data on structural lung changes remain scarce. Methods We retrospectively analyzed all clinically indicated chest CT examinations at a tertiary care center (2015–2025)
