Heart Center Munich-Bogenhausen, Department of Cardiology and Internal Intensive Care Medicine Munich Hospital Bogenhausen, Munich Municipal Hospital Group Munich Germany.
Purpose: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is effective in treating atrial fibrillation (AF), but outcomes are worse for persistent AF (persAF) patients than paroxysmal AF (PAF) patients. The study aimed to identify differences in left atrial (LA) and left atrial appendage (LAA) anatomy in different AF types.
Methods: In a single-center observational study, a blinded retrospective analysis of preprocedural cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images was performed.
Clinical Importance of Tissue Proximity Indication During Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: Insights from Initial Experience.

Background: Pulsed field ablation (PFA) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) has been gaining worldwide acceptance due to its efficacy and safety. A variable loop circular catheter (VLCC, VARIPULSE, Biosense Webster, Inc.) for PFA, recently launched in Japan, includes a Tissue Proximity Indication (TPI) feature to monitor catheter-tissue contact via impedance.

International arrhythmia center, Fundacion cardioinfatil - La Cardio, Division of Cardiology, Bogota, Colombia. Electronic address:
Introduction: Electrophysiologic (EP) procedures are typically performed via the femoral venous system, but in some patients, the inferior vena cava (IVC) is unavailable. The hepatic vein has emerged as a viable alternative to femoral access, providing an inferior route that accommodates large sheaths required for better catheter manipulation. Although the percutaneous transhepatic approach has been used successfully in the pediatric population, its use in adults is scarce, with a complication rate of approximately 5%.

Objectives: Comorbidities of depression, anxiety and loneliness may be more prevalent in frail older adults, which may lead to an accelerated deterioration of psychological symptoms. This study was aimed to assess the moderating effect of frailty on the network of depression, anxiety, and loneliness symptoms in community-dwelling older adults.
Methods: A sample of 4253 older adults were recruited from the Psychology and Behavior Investigation of Chinese Residents (PBICR).
Assessment of Antibiotic Resistance Among Isolates of spp. and spp. in Wildlife and Their Environment from Portugal: A Positive Epidemiologic Outcome.

MicroART-Antibiotic Resistance Team, Department of Veterinary Sciences, University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro, 5000-801 Vila Real, Portugal.
One of the significant challenges facing modern medicine is the rising rate of antibiotic resistance, which impacts public health, animal health, and environmental preservation. Evaluating antibiotic resistance in wildlife and their environments is crucial, as it offers essential insights into the dynamics of resistance patterns and promotes strategies for monitoring, prevention, and intervention. and genera isolates were recovered from fecal samples of wild animals and environmental samples using media without antibiotic supplementation.
