Transient unexpected improvement of AV conduction: What is the mechanism? [PDF]
This ECG was recorded from a 93 year old patient with a previously documented third degree AV block and an underlying LBBB. The twelve lead ECG demonstrates sinus bradycardia at a rate of 52 beats per minute, a PR interval of 230 milliseconds, and a ...

Inspired by cat vibrissae, biomimetic biomass PHFs/SA aerogels (BFAs) are developed via precursor‐assisted in situ polymerization and freeze‐synergistic assembly. These ultralight, porous pressure sensors exhibit high sensitivity and excellent durability, enabling pulse detection, handwriting recognition, Morse code transmission, and notably real‐time ...

EFFECTIVENESS OF UNIPOLAR RADIOFREQUENCY SURGICAL ABLATION FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION
Aim. To verify the effectiveness of surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation by irrigated unipolar radiofrequency, applied to both atria, for the reversal and maintenance of the sinus rhythm in the short and medium term in patients undergoing ...

Spontaneous Pothole Cardioversion of a Wide Complex Tachycardia
External mechanical forces, if properly timed and of sufficient energy, have rarely been reported to convert tachyarrhythmias to sinus rhythm. We report a case of a patient with a wide-complex tachycardia that spontaneously converted to sinus rhythm ...

Comparison of the Relationship Between Inflammatory Markers and Atrial Fibrillation Burden
Background: Atrial fibrillation is a complex disease with irregular ventricular response and tachycardia as a result of irregular and rapid contraction of the atria, with poor cardiovascular outcomes unless treated. Various mechanisms are involved in its

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.
