Abstract Aims Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is important in the management of cardiac implantable electronic devices but carries risk. It most commonly completed from superior access, often with ‘bail-out’ support via femoral approach. Superior and inferior access may be used tandem, which has been proposed as an advance safety efficacy. The aim this study to evaluate efficacy Tandem Method ‘Tandem’ procedure entailed grasping targeted right atrium provide countertraction a rotational...
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), which is secreted by granulosa cells of late preantral and small antral follicles, a marker ovarian reserve. The association reserve with subclinical atherosclerosis in women reproductive age currently unknown. We primary investigated whether AMH levels are associated markers healthy, normally menstruating women. In this cross-sectional study, vascular structure function were assessed measurement carotid femoral intima–media thickness (IMT), flow-mediated...
Degenerative Aortic Stenosis (DAS) is a common disease that causes substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in the older population. Our aim was to further investigate novel serum tissue biomarkers elucidate biological processes involved this entity.We evaluated expression of six significantly cardiovascular pathology, i.e., irisin, periostin, osteoglycin, interleukin 18, high mobility group box 1 proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 at protein level, both mRNA...
Abstract Background Proactive esophageal cooling is increasingly being utilized, and now FDA cleared, to reduce the likelihood of ablation-related injury resulting from radiofrequency (RF) cardiac ablation atrial fibrillation (AF). One-year follow-up largest randomized controlled study, IMPACT trial, showed a trend towards improvement in long-term efficacy versus luminal temperature (LET) monitoring. With larger data sets available for analysis, we sought determine 1-year freedom arrhythmia...
Abstract Background Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is vital to the management of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Evolving tools and techniques have contributed an improvement in procedural safety efficacy. The jugular access advantageous TLE, providing a linear, direct path heart for sheaths. However, transfer with deployed locking stylet from subclavian carries risk cardiovascular injury. A novel pull-through technique has been described safe native site access,...
Coronary artery disease, autonomic neuropathy, and diabetic cardiomyopathy are the most common cardiovascular complications of diabetes. However, emerging evidence demonstrates that diabetes also affects heart's electrical conduction system, culminating in lethal arrhythmias sudden cardiac death. Diabetes rhythm disturbances have a complex relationship, cannot only be attributed to ischemia neuropathy. Hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, glucose fluctuations can potentially induce by activating...
