The PEGASUS-TIMI 54 (Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Prior Heart Attack Using Ticagrelor Compared to Placebo on a Background Aspirin–Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction 54) trial studied 2 doses ticagrelor, 90 mg twice day (bid) and 60 bid, for long-term prevention ischemic events patients prior myocardial infarction. Both similarly reduced the rate versus placebo. pharmacokinetics pharmacodynamics ticagrelor bid have not been studied. this study, authors sought study...
Summary Diabetes increases cardiovascular risk and reduces pharmacodynamic response to some oral antiplatelet drugs. This study aimed determine whether ticagrelor 60 mg twice daily (bid) provided potent consistent platelet inhibition in patients with vs without diabetes the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 function substudy. Out of 180 studied, 58 were randomised had received at least four weeks bid, 20 (34 %) having diabetes, 90 12 (21 64 placebo, 18 (28 diabetes. Blood was sampled pre- 2 hours...
This article explored the mediating and moderating factors of financial technology (FinTech) adoption for small medium enterprises (SMEs) innovations. A systematic literature review (SLR) was performed as a study method. The current research involved an in-depth evaluation 96 articles published in English between 2000 2023. methods were developed from meta-analysis SLR's indicated reporting items. collected by carrying out keyword searches on Scopus-indexed database. identified gaps...
A new system is described for catheter ablation which comprises a short time capacifive power source and specially designed catheter. The aim of the to deliver high voltages with minimal or no arcing thus avoid risks associated barotrauma. performance was compared in saline tank that conventional system. allowed significant increases delivered voJtage, current energy without arcing. This shouJd allow safer ablation.
A power source modified to increase voltage delivery and minimise arcing (for a given energy) was used for transvenous ablation of atrioventricular conduction control refractory supraventricular arrhythmias in 14 patients. Twelve had atrial fibrillation or flutter, one nodal reentry tachycardia, the other permanent junctional tachycardia. Despite treatment with 5-7 (median 6) antiarrhythmic drugs symptoms persisted all Cathodal discharges 0.5-39.5 J were delivered distal electrode (in case...

A 23‐year‐old man was resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation and subsequently shown to have the Wolff‐Parkinson‐White syndrome. Electrophyslological study demonstrated a posteroseptal accessory pathway, coronary sinus angiography that this associated with diverticulum of sinus. Catheter ablation performed using new low energy system. Five shocks were delivered within diverticulum, cumulative 39 joules (J). Accessory pathway conduction blocked successfully, there no complications.
Middle-Income Trap (MIT) is a phenomenon wherein nation finds itself unable to progress from middle-income status high-income economy. Despite Bangladesh’s rapid economic growth as developing economy following its transition the lower-middle-income category, country faces various challenges that may impede advancement higher-income tiers. Consequently, this study delves into whether Bangladesh can successfully navigate way out of and upper-middle-income traps. To assess this, initially...
To assess whether catheter ablation of fascicular tachycardia can be facilitated by the recording sharp deflections arising from mid-septum---inferior apical septum left ventricle.Seven consecutive patients (mean age 29 (range 16-43) years) with ventricular originating posterior fascicle underwent electrophysiology study and detailed mapping endocardial activation. Selection sites in last five was based on recording, during sinus rhythm, a discrete potential preceding earliest electrogram,...
To our knowledge we report the first case of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy used for treatment massive pulmonary embolism in United Kingdom. Pulmonary is a common disease process but can be difficult to diagnose. Massive presenting with profound hypotension, however, rare. Both phenomena carry them significant mortality. Traditionally those patients suffering haemodynamic compromise from are treated intravenous or catheter-directed thrombolysis. When this contraindicated surgical...
A 38 year old woman with a structurally normal heart presented near syncope and had right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia. She was intolerant of antiarrhythmic medication underwent low energy catheter ablation. Six non-arcing shocks 25 J were delivered to the tract. No further tachycardia occurred during follow up seven months without treatment.
This study has used high energy ablative shocks in saline and man to characterize the complex, dependent behavior of impedance at electrode-tissue interface. In vitro showed a fall when an arc was formed, due formation around electrode vapor globe rendered conductive by arc. Following extinction, this same insulates electrode, subsequently collapses, forming shock wave, allowing current flow resume. Shocks delivered tissue specimens exhibited progressively higher less insulation as contact...
<h3>Introduction</h3> The ICD implant rate for the United Kingdom is low compared with European Union and States of America. National Institute Clinical Excellence guidance TAO95 (NICE 2006) makes recommendations primary prevention implantation. Our study investigated feasibility systematically screening patients following an acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to improve local rates. <h3>Method</h3> A prospective single centre was performed over 14-months, in tertiary setting....
The major focus of this article is on whether daily expenditures increase during a lockdown covid-19 pandemic. idea research to show how Covid-19 influences our lives through increasing spending. Convenient sampling techniques have used for selecting sample and area (Sector 10 Uttara Dhaka). With the constructed questionnaire, researchers ran study better understand people's perceptions their everyday questionnaire was conducted period COVID-19 when all participants were self-isolated at...
