Datasheet1_Impact of pulmonary artery pressure on recurrence after catheter ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation.pdf
BackgroundThe pulmonary veins play a major role in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF) and may be affected by cardiac remodeling due to pulmonary vascular dysfunction. It remains to be determined whether pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) is associated with the recurrence of AF after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA).MethodsConsecutive patients with paroxysmal and persistent AF who underwent RFCA, including wide circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, were analyzed. Systolic PAP was measured using transthoracic echocardiography, and clinical outcomes were compared between patients with PAP ResultsAmong 2,379 patients (mean age 56.7 ± 10.6 years, 77% men), 1,893 (79.6%) had PAP ConclusionThis study showed that a higher PAP was associated with an increased risk of recurrence after RFCA in patients with paroxysmal AF, suggesting a mechanism by which a pulmonary vascular pathology may cause impairment of the pulmonary veins and remodeling of the left atrium.</p

All-Solution-Processed High-Performance MoS<sub>2</sub> Thin-Film Transistors with a Quasi-2D Perovskite Oxide Dielectric
Assembling
solution-processed van der Waals (vdW) materials
into thin films holds great promise for constructing
large-scale, high-performance thin-film electronics, especially at
low temperatures. While transition metal dichalcogenide thin films
assembled in solution have shown potential as channel materials, fully
solution-processed vdW electronics have not been
achieved due to the absence of suitable dielectric materials and high-temperature
processing. In this work, we report on all-solution-processedvdW thin-film transistors (TFTs) comprising molybdenum disulfides
(MoS2) as the channel and Dion–Jacobson-phase perovskite
oxides as the high-permittivity dielectric. The constituent layers
are prepared as colloidal solutions through electrochemical exfoliation
of bulk crystals, followed by sequential assembly into a semiconductor/dielectric
heterostructure for TFT construction. Notably, all fabrication processes
are carried out at temperatures below 250 °C. The fabricated
MoS2 TFTs exhibit excellent device characteristics, including
high mobility (>10 cm2 V-1 s-1) and
an on/off ratio exceeding 106. Additionally, the use of
a high-k dielectric allows for operation at low voltage
(∼5 V) and leakage current (∼10–11 A), enabling low power consumption. Our demonstration of the low-temperature
fabrication of high-performance TFTs presents a cost-effective and
scalable approach for heterointegrated thin-film electronics
Table_1_Open-labeled, multicenter phase II study of prophylactic administration of pegylated granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received pomalidomide-based regimens (KMM170).docx
IntroductionPegylated granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) has been widely used for preventing febrile neutropenia in various types of cancer treatment. In the present study, we prospectively evaluated the safety and efficacy of pegfilgrastim as a primary prophylaxis of febrile neutropenia and infection among patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) treated with pomalidomide-based regimens.MethodsThirty-three patients with RRMM who received pomalidomide and dexamethasone (Pd) with or without cyclophosphamide (PCd) were enrolled in this study. Twenty-eight patients were treated with PCd and 5 patients were treated with Pd. All patients were given pegfilgrastim subcutaneously with a single administration performed on the first day of each cycle as primary prophylaxis until the fourth cycle.ResultsThe median age of the patients was 75 (range 56-85), and the median prior line of therapy was 2 (range 2-6). Seventeen patients (51.5%) had any grade of neutropenia and 20 (60.6%) had any grade of thrombocytopenia before starting pomalidomide treatment. During the 4 cycles of treatment, grade 3 or more neutropenia occurred in 17 patients (51.5%), and 4 (12.1%) experienced grade 3 or more febrile neutropenia. Grade 3 or more infections occurred in 5 patients (15.2%). Interestingly, the patients with markedly increased ANC of more than 2 x 109/L compared to baseline ANC after 7 days of pegfilgrastim at 1st cycle of treatment showed a significantly lower incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia. The most common adverse event of pegfilgrastim was fatigue, and all the adverse events caused by pegfilgrastim were grade 1 or 2. And there was no significant change in the immune cell population and cytokines during the administration of pegfilgrastim.DiscussionConsidering that this study included elderly patients with baseline neutropenia, pegylated G-CSF could be helpful to prevent severe neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, or infection in patients with RRMM.</p
