A 45-years-old lady with no structural heart disease on echocardiogram presented with recurrent episodes of palpitation. There was no baseline preexcitation. Twelve lead surface electrocardiograms (ECG) recorded during one of the episodes are provided. What is the likely mechanism of the tachycardia? [Figure: see text].

Purpose: This randomized clinical trial compared 12-month outcomes of narrow platform implants (NP) or regular platform implants (RP) in beds prepared with conventional versus ultrasonic osteotomy and immediately loaded.
Materials And Methods: Patients requiring narrow (3.0 mm) or regular (3.

Background: While clinical indicators for synchronized cardioversion in regular supraventricular tachycardias are well-established, their application by prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) still needs to be explored.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the factors influencing the decision-making process of prehospital EMS personnel to perform synchronized cardioversion in adults with narrow QRS regular tachyarrhythmias.
Methods: This descriptive study included 598 paramedics actively engaged in prehospital EMS.

: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is used to treat patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and has proven clinical efficacy for this condition. However, the objective method to determine the appropriate CPAP level for treatment is still unclear. Patients with OSA typically exhibit irregular respiratory efforts due to obstruction or narrowing of the upper airway during sleep.

Purpose: Interprofessional practice requires regular communication between professionals from different disciplines using shared terminology. Within schools, many professionals are tasked with supporting children with language disorders, namely, developmental language disorder (DLD) and/or dyslexia. Limited information exists as to (a) how school-based professionals' definitions of DLD and dyslexia align with research definitions, (b) how different school-based professionals define language disorders, (c) how school-based professionals' definitions of DLD and dyslexia align across professional groups, and (d) how one's definition of a language disorder correlates with other measures of knowledge.

Nanofiltration (NF) membranes offer tremendous potential in wastewater reuse, desalination, and resource recovery to alleviate water scarcity and environmental contamination. However, separating micropollutants and charged ions from wastewater while maintaining high water permeation remains challenging for conventional NF membranes. Customizing diffusion and interaction behavior of monomers at membrane-forming interfaces is promising for regulating interior pore structures and surface morphology properties for polyamide NF membranes, reaching efficient screening and retaining of solutes from water.
