Purpose Of Review: The advanced use of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is both a significant leap forward and an underutilized and unrealized innovation for electrophysiological (EP) procedures [1]. ICE can inform operators of complex anatomic heterogeneity as well as close anatomic relationships beyond fluoroscopy and even electroanatomic mapping. We will review the myriad advantages of advanced ICE application to EP ablation procedures.
Recent Findings: While 3D mapping has significantly advanced diagnosis and treatment efficiency for ablation procedures quite rapidly, widespread adoption of advanced ICE techniques beyond a supplemental technology has not been as swift. The advanced application of ICE has the ability to vastly improve the safety of EP procedures while reducing or eliminating required fluoroscopic guidance in many aspects [2]. The advanced application of ICE offers many opportunities to improve procedural efficacy and safety. Further research should focus on quantifying these benefits and understanding how best to disseminate these techniques for broader electrophysiological practice.

Network intervention analysis to assess the trajectory of change and intervention effects associated with the use of self-control training for ego depletion aftereffects.
BMC Psychol
January 2025
Department of Medical Psychology, Air Force Medical University, Xi'an, China.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to use the advanced technique of Network Intervention Analysis (NIA) to investigate the trajectory of symptom change associated with the effects of self-control training on youth university students' chronic ego depletion aftereffects.
Methods: The nine nodes of chronic ego depletion aftereffects and integrated self-control training were taken as nodes in the network and analyzed using NIA. Networks were computed at the baseline, at the end of treatment, at 1-, 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-month follow up.
Evaluation of an enhanced ResNet-18 classification model for rapid On-site diagnosis in respiratory cytology.

Department of Pathology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, 325000, Zhejiang, China.
Objective: Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of respiratory cytology specimens is a critical technique for accurate and timely diagnosis of lung cancer. However, in China, limited familiarity with the Diff-Quik staining method and a shortage of trained cytopathologists hamper utilization of ROSE. Therefore, developing an improved deep learning model to assist clinicians in promptly and accurately evaluating Diff-Quik stained cytology samples during ROSE has important clinical value.

Allen Institute for Immunology, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: The field of single cell technologies has rapidly advanced our comprehension of the human immune system, offering unprecedented insights into cellular heterogeneity and immune function. While cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples enable deep characterization of immune cells, challenges in clinical isolation and preservation limit their application in underserved communities with limited access to research facilities. We present CryoSCAPE (Cryopreservation for Scalable Cellular And Proteomic Exploration), a scalable method for immune studies of human PBMC with multi-omic single cell assays using direct cryopreservation of whole blood.
