Comparison of the efficacy of excimer laser coronary angioplasty for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with onset-to-balloon time
Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) vaporizes plaques and thrombi, provides better microcirculation, and reduces peripheral embolism when treating acute coronary syndrome. Studies on the efficacy of ELCA...

Characteristics of Marshall bundle-related atrial tachycardias using an ultrahigh-resolution map** system
Marshall bundle (MB)-related atrial tachycardias (ATs) have already been described; however, their characteristics using an ultrahigh-resolution map** system are not yet well known. The purpose of this study...
