Article Synopsis
  • * A study comparing two ablation techniques (anterior mitral line and mitral isthmus line) found that both methods had similar short-term success rates, but the mitral isthmus line resulted in significantly fewer long-term recurrences of atrial flutter.
  • * Overall, using a mitral isthmus line for ablation led to better long-term outcomes for patients with MAF, with no serious complications reported in either treatment group.

Background: Cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation requires permanent bidirectional block to prevent recurrence of typical atrial flutter (AFL). Catheter irrigation with half-normal saline (HNS) produces larger and deeper lesions in experimental models compared with normal saline (NS). This study was performed to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of HNS vs NS irrigation for typical AFL ablation.

One of the side effects of doing sports activities is the increase of free radicals and oxidative stress. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of increasing endurance training with L-arginine supplementation on oxidative indices in the cardiac organ of male Wistar rats. 32 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups control, L-arginine, endurance training, and L-arginine plus endurance training.
