ABSTRACT Background Pentaspline pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) has emerged as a novel modality for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and posterior wall isolation (PWI) in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the learning curve associated with combined PVI + PWI and the contribution of anatomical factors to acute lesion completeness remain ...

Pulmonary Vein Isolation Alone Versus Adjunctive Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
Clinical Outcomes of Pulmonary Vein Isolation Alone Versus Additional Lesion Sets in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the standard ablation strategy for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). Despite guideline recommendations favoring PVI alone in PAF, some operators routinely perform extra pulmonary ...

Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Arthroscopic Upper Third Subscapularis Tendon Repair Using H‐Loop Technique: A Case Series
The images show the surgical technique. (a) Partial subscapularis tendon tear; (b) A PDS suture is passed through the medial and distal edges of the tear and tied at the end to bring in a #2 Fiber Wire suture; (c) Another PDS suture is passed through the tear and inside the loop; (d) The end of the PDS suture is tied, securing both tails of the #2 ...

This modified arthroscopic suture‐bridge technique, utilizing a unique “5 o'clock” portal, achieves reliable perpendicular fixation for bony Bankart lesions, reducing mean glenoid bone loss from 18.2% to 2.5% (p < 0.001) with a 97.2% healing rate and 80% return‐to‐sport rate. ABSTRACT Purpose Bony Bankart lesion is a primary cause of traumatic shoulder

Chronic hip pain remains predominantly studied from the perspective of body‐level impairments and symptom management. Using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework, this review synthesized evidence published between 2020 and 2025 and found that most studies focused on structures and functions, while ...
