Department of Physics, College of Science and Humanities in Al-Kharj, Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz, University.
The current study was designed to evaluate the antibacterial, antibiofilm, and biofilm inhibitory potential of six medicinal plants, including Trachyspermum ammi, Trigonella foenum-graecum, Nigella sativa, Thymus vulgaris, Terminalia arjuna, and Ipomoea carneaid against catheter-associated bacteria (CAB). Eighteen CAB were identified up to species level using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, viz., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

School of Nursing and Midwifery, Griffith University, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
Background: Globally, haemodialysis is the most frequent type of kidney replacement therapy and necessitates access to the bloodstream either through a native arteriovenous fistula, arteriovenous graft or central venous catheter. Vascular access complications are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in adults receiving haemodialysis, and effective vascular access self-management is required.
Objective: To examine the effectiveness of educational or behavioural interventions designed to improve self-management of long-term vascular access in adults receiving haemodialysis.
Feasibility of anchoring active fixation quadripolar lead to the main body of the dilated coronary sinus in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava: a case report.

Department of Cardiology, Yokohama City University Hospital, 3-9 Fukuura, Kanazawa-Ku, Yokohama city, Kanagawa 236-0004, Japan.
Background: Coronary sinus (CS) lead placement in persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) cases is challenging because of the poor backup force of the guiding catheter within the enlarged CS. Active fixation Quadripolar leads (Attain Stability™ Quad 4798, Medtronic) can expand choice to CS branches with limited access; however, no cases of anchoring to the main body of the CS have been published to date.
Case Summary: We describe a case of cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker upgrade in a 79-year-old female who developed pacing-induced cardiomyopathy after pacemaker implantation via the right superior vena cava (SVC) for atrioventricular block eight years ago wherein PLSVC was revealed during the procedure.
Addressing residual and recurrent aneurysms post-Woven EndoBridge device embolization: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
J Neurointerv Surg
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, University at Buffalo Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Buffalo, New York, USA
Background: Early literature on the Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device reported 80-90% adequate aneurysm occlusion but low complete occlusion (40-55%). It is uncertain whether residual or recurrent aneurysms require re-treatment to prevent future rupture.
Objective: To systematically review the literature to meta-analyze occlusion and complication rates after re-treatment of these aneurysms.
Challenges in extracting a defective ventricular lead after CRT-D: a case report.
Front Cardiovasc Med
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, University of Health Sciences, Erzurum Bolge Training and Research Hospital, Erzurum, Turkey.
Background: Our aim in this case was to remove the defective ventricular lead and the ruptured coronary sinus lead.
Methods: Entering through the right femoral vein and removing the coronary sinus lead with a pigtail catheter.
Results: In our attempt to extract the coronary sinus lead, it fractured.
