Atrial fibrillation episode patterns as predictor of clinical outcome of catheter ablation

Methods for characterization of atrial fibrillation (AF) episode patterns have been introduced without establishing clinical significance. This study investigates, for the first time, whether post-ablation recurrence of AF can be predicted by evaluating episode patterns. The dataset comprises of 54 patients (age 56 ± 11 years; 67% men), with an implantable cardiac monitor, before undergoing the fi

Leading with a cool head and a warm heart : trait-based leadership resources linked to task performance, perceived stress, and work engagement

Leaders of today need to achieve well in terms of task performance, perceiving low stress, and having high levels of work engagement. One may ask whether trait-based leadership resource factors can be identified and how such resource factors might relate to task performance, perceived stress, and work engagement. Our aim was to test the hypothesis, derived from Hobfoll’s motivational Conservation

Prophylactic and Therapeutic Fasciotomy for Acute Compartment Syndrome after Revascularization for Acute Lower Limb Ischemia—Renal and Wound Outcomes

Background: Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS) is a significant complication after revascularization for acute lower limb ischemia (ALI). High risk patients sometimes undergo prophylactic fasciotomy (PF) to prevent ACS. Patients that develop ACS undergo therapeutic fasciotomy (TF). The optimal timing of fasciotomy has been debated. The aim of this study was to describe and compare renal and wound ou

Temporary Cohabitation : The Metastable Phase Au4Si

The prediction, identification, and characterization of phases away from equilibrium conditions remain difficult challenges for material science. Herein, we demonstrate how systems whose phase diagrams contain deeply incising eutectics can offer opportunities to address these challenges. We report the synthesis of a new compound in the Au-Si system, a textbook example of a system with a deep eutec

Sexual function of adult long-term survivors and their partners after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in Europe (S-FAST) : a study from the Transplant Complications Working Party and Nurses Group of the EBMT

Sexual dysfunction after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a common long-term complication. We conducted a European multicenter cross-sectional study of adult allo-HCT recipients who had survived >2 years and their partners to investigate sexual functioning after HCT and to evaluate whether discussion about sexual functioning between the transplant team and the survivor a

Genetic Predictors of Change in Waist Circumference and Waist-to-Hip Ratio With Lifestyle Intervention : The Trans-NIH Consortium for Genetics of Weight Loss Response to Lifestyle Intervention

Genome-wide association studies have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) adjusted for BMI (WCadjBMI and WHRadjBMI), but it remains unclear whether these SNPs relate to change in WCadjBMI or WHRadjBMI with lifestyle intervention for weight loss. We hypothesized that polygenic scores (PS) comprised of 59 SNPs previou
