B cells and systemic sclerosis interstitial lung disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Interstitial lung disease is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc‐ILD) with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to FDA‐approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of interstitial lung diseases of other systemic autoimmune ...

Effects of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy on the Arrhythmic Substrate in a Patient with Long QT and Torsades de pointes

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2011
We describe a patient with torsades de pointes (TdP) who was implanted with cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D). At the time of CRT-D implantation, left ventricular (LV) epicardial pacing exacerbated TdPs and developed into electrical

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia [PDF]

, 2005
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by frequent ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricle and fibro-fatty replacement of right ventricular myocardium. Though the disorder was originally

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

‘SOMS BrainSpace’: A digital serious game for undergraduate neuroscience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy is challenging for many undergraduates, requiring strong visuospatial skills and a deep understanding of complex concepts. This study developed and evaluated SOMS BrainSpace, a digital serious game for neuroanatomy education, using a mixed methods approach.

New Insights into Pacing Induced Cardiomyopathy

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Pacing induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) can occur as a complication due to pacing the right ventricle. Its precise definition varies across different studies, leading to uncertainty as to the best approach for managing this entity. More than 10% of patients

Pacemapping [PDF]

, 2005
Pacemapping (PM) is an electrophysiologic technique designed to help locating tachycardia sources by stimulating at different endocardial sites in order to reproduce the clinical tachycardia characteristics.

The paper puzzle as an active learning tool in the teaching of anatomy: A qualitative study of perceptions in students and near‐peer teachers

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Active learning strategies enhance medical education by fostering self‐directed learning, communication, and problem‐solving skills. The paper puzzle, a game‐based learning approach, provides an engaging way to reinforce anatomical knowledge and promote collaboration.

The incidence of in-hospital atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting using ventricular and atrial pacing

ARYA Atherosclerosis, 2013
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is a common problem. In this study, we sought to evaluate the safety and tolerance of continuous atrial pacing after CABG. We hypothesized that a strategy of temporary

Effects of right ventricular septum or His-bundle pacing versus right ventricular apical pacing on cardiac function: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Journal of International Medical Research, 2018
Objective Recent studies have demonstrated that right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing has a deleterious impact on left ventricular function, while right ventricular septum (RVS) or His-bundle pacing (HBP) contribute to improvements in cardiac function. A
