Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the effect of conduction system pacing (CSP) on the occurrence of atrial high-rate episodes (AHREs) in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), comparing it to right ventricular pacing (RVP).
  • Researchers analyzed data from 498 patients who received dual-chamber pacemakers between January 2018 and January 2023, noting both new-onset and progressive AHREs.
  • Findings indicate that CSP is associated with a significantly lower incidence of new-onset AHREs in patients without prior atrial fibrillation compared to RVP, and also showed improvements in various cardiac performance metrics following CSP.

Detection of anthrax biomarker dipicolinic acid (DPA) is of great importance upon the crisis of bioterrorism. Development of fluorescent materials for DPA detection, particularly one that fully depends on single luminescent response, faces the challenge of being susceptible to interferences. The accompanying accuracy problems offer great opportunities for the establishment of more reliable ratiometric analysis method.

The trivalent europium ion (Eu) has garnered a great deal of interest for the design of luminescent materials possessing compound-independent emission bands, strong luminescent intensity, and long emission lifetimes. We herein introduce a synthetic methodology capable of constructing visual luminescent probes from Eu complex-functionalized silica nanocomposites and their Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films at interfaces. In order to facilitate the coordinative stabilization of Eu over carrier surfaces, silica nanoparticles (nanoSiO) were pregrafted with terpyridyl (TPy) to make nanoSiOTPy linkers.
