Influence of the irrigation flow pattern and catheter tip design on the lesion formation: an ex vivo experimental model
Lesion formation during catheter ablation is influenced by the power, contact force (CF), time, and catheter stability. However, the influence of the irrigation effects on lesion formation remains unknown.

Does the same lesion index mean the same efficacy and safety profile: influence of the differential power, time, and contact force on the lesion size and steam pops under the same lesion index
The lesion index (LSI) helps predict the lesion size and is widely used in ablation of various types of arrhythmias. However, the influence of the ablation settings on the lesion formation and incidence of ste...

Open AccessImpact of long-term optimizing atrioventricular delay using device-based algorithms on cardiac resynchronization therapy
Sub-optimal atrioventricular delay (AVD) is one of the main causes of non-responder for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Recently, device-based algorithms (DBAs) that provide optimal AVD based on intra...

Administration of Ag85B showed therapeutic effects to Th2-type cytokine-mediated acute phase atopic dermatitis by inducing regulatory T cells
Increase in the number of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) has been recently reported. T helper (Th) cells that infiltrate AD skin lesions are Th2-type dominant; reduced exposure to environmental Th1-cytok...
