However, little is known about the association between CKD and third-degree atrioventricular block (3AVB) and need for permanent pacing.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the association between CKD and 3AVB.

The textures of sarcoidosis: quantifying lung disease through variograms.

Metabolic Pathways Associated With Obesity and Hypertension in Black Caregivers of Persons Living With Dementia.
