Change in sleep quality Induced by adaptive servo-ventilation for central sleep apnea: 6-month follow-up of the multicenter nationwide French FACIL-VAA cohort.

Background: A large number of symptomatic individuals with central sleep apnea (CSA) in clinical practice have an indication for adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) therapy.

Research Question: What are the effects of ASV therapy on sleep quality and PROMs in patients with CSA across a range of devices and indications.

Methods: This prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study was conducted in France and enrolled participants from June 2017 to February 2020.

Complete genome sequence of bacteriophage SeKF_80, isolated from wastewater in British Columbia.

is a Gram-negative inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tract of warm-blooded animals and commonly implicated in foodborne illness. Here, we describe the isolation of phage SeKF_80. The 89,965 bp genome contains 174 predicted coding sequences with 44 predicted functions.

Integrated approach to aortic valve replacement, coronary intervention, and aortic aneurysm in severe LV dysfunction: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: In the complex field of cardiac care, managing patients with severe aortic stenosis, coronary artery disease, aortic aneurysm, and left ventricular dysfunction poses significant challenges. Traditionally, such conditions demand highly invasive surgeries, like open-heart surgery with prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass, increasing the risk of complications and the need for mechanical circulatory support.

Case Presentation: This case report details a management of a 53-year-old with no significant past medical history who presented with a three-month history of progressive exertional dyspnea, mixed aortic valve disease, comprising severe aortic regurgitation and moderate aortic stenosis, in addition to coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction.

Development and Validation of a Low-Cost, High-Fidelity Simulation Model for Robotic Internal Mammary Artery Harvest Using the da Vinci Xi Robot.

Objective: We created and validated a low-cost simulation model for robotic internal mammary artery (IMA) takedown.

Methods: The simulation model utilized a calf fetus thorax cavity stented open internally and secured to a table. The simulation model was validated at a 2-day robotic cardiac surgery workshop.
