Changes in Lead Parameters of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices After VT/VF Ablation Using a Dual‐Energy Lattice‐Tip Catheter

ABSTRACT Background Interactions between cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) and pulsed field ablation (PFA) have been studied mainly in the context of atrial ablation, whereas the effects of ventricular ablation using a dual‐energy lattice‐tip catheter on ventricular...

Optimal Depolarization Sequence for CRT Patients

Abstract Background Electrical ventricular dyssynchrony is a hallmark of intraventricular conduction disease in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is effective, a proportion of patients with ECG evidenced electrical dyss...

Male Sexual and Reproductive Health in Diabetes and Obesity Pharmacotherapy: A Source‐Triangulated Counseling Map

BACKGROUND: Drugs used for diabetes and obesity increasingly shape male sexual and reproductive counseling, but clinical studies, trial registrations, regulatory labels, and patents answer different questions. OBJECTIVES: The objective is to map these sources and define what each...

Maternal microchimerism: foreign friend, hidden enemy

Maternal microchimerism (MMc) encompasses the transfer and long-term persistence of maternal cells within the offspring-beginning in utero via the placenta and continuing after birth through breastfeeding. Once viewed as an immunological oddity, MMc is now recognized as a dynamic...

Evolution of kidney transcriptomic signatures associated with donors’ diabetes in non-diabetic transplant recipients: prospective observational study

Deceased donors with diabetes have been considered suitable for kidney transplant recipients without diabetes. The aim of this study was to identify transcriptomic signatures associated with donor diabetes in zero-hour kidney biopsies, and their changes after transplantation into...

Hepatitis A vaccination and its public-health impact in routine prevention and outbreak control: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background Hepatitis A vaccination is used for routine prevention and outbreak control, but its effectiveness and population-level impact have not been comprehensively synthesised. We aimed to assess vaccine effectiveness, certainty of evidence, and population-level impact. Metho...
