One sample t test was used to compare albumin levels of the control group with the normal population mean value established in this laboratory so as to eliminate the selection bias. The correlations between albumin levels and cardiac function classifications (NYHA) were assessed using Spearman's ...
An effective method for predicting the risk of recurrence in patients with pAF after PVI is of great importance when deciding on personalized ablation strategies and postoperative treatment prospects. However, in that study, the sample size was small, which the authors considered to be one of the...

TEE before TLE was performed in 1191 patients (females 38.96%), mean age 67.12 ± 14.74 years. Ischemic heart disease was the most common co-morbidity (64.40%). Patients with systemic infection were more likely to have more co-morbidities and, therefore, higher values of the Charlson index ...
IVL stands as a beacon of innovation in the realm of interventional cardiology, offering a promising alternative to traditional methods for managing calcified CAD and PAD. Its efficacy in fragmenting calcium deposits through pulsatile sonic waves ensures safer and more effective vessel preparation for ...
