Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been characterized by impairments among distributed functional brain networks, e.g., the frontoparietal network (FPN), default mode network (DMN), reward and motivation-related circuits (RMN), and salience network (SAL). In the current study, we evaluated the complexity and functional connectivity (FC) of resting state fMRI (rsfMRI) in pre-adolescents with the behavioral symptoms of ADHD, for pathology-relevant networks. We leveraged data from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study...

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals frequently encounter diverse types of noise, such as baseline wander (BW), electrode motion (EM) artifacts, muscle artifact (MA), and others. These noises often occur in combination during the actual data acquisition process, resulting in erroneous or perplexing interpretations for cardiologists. To suppress random mixed noise (RMN) in ECG with less distortion, we propose a Transformer-based Convolutional Denoising AutoEncoder model (TCDAE) in this study. The encoder of TCDAE is composed of three stacked gated convolutional layers and a Transformer encoder block with a point-wise multi-head self-attention module...

BACKGROUND: Data comparing remote magnetic catheter navigation (RMN) with manual catheter navigation in combination with contact force sensing (MCN-CF) ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is lacking. The primary aim of the present retrospective comparative study was to compare the outcome of RMN versus (vs.) MCN-CF ablation of AF with regards to AF recurrence. Secondary aim was to analyze periprocedural risk, ablation characteristics and repeat procedures. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 452 patients undergoing a total of 605 ablations of AF: 180 patients were ablated using RMN, 272 using MCN-CF...

Fe and Mn release from sediments promotes the release of other chemicals and jointly affects downstream water safety, especially in drinking water reservoirs. Quantitative research on release processes and flux estimation methods for endogenous Fe and Mn in reservoirs is still limited. Static incubation experiments were designed to systematically explore the effects of water temperature (WT), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, carbon sources, and microbial activity on Fe and Mn release. The results showed that increased WT and carbon source addition promoted the release of acid-extractable Fe and Mn from the sediments; hypoxia and acidification promoted the dissolution of reducible sediment Fe and Mn; and microorganisms participated in the cycling of Fe and Mn...

INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is a pivotal part of ablative therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF). Currently, there are multiple techniques available to realize PVI, including: manual-guided cryoballoon (MAN-CB), manual-guided radiofrequency (MAN-RF), and robotic magnetic navigation-guided radiofrequency ablation (RMN-RF). There is a lack of large prospective trials comparing contemporary RMN-RF with the more conventional ablation techniques. This study prospectively compared three catheter ablation techniques as treatment of paroxysmal AF...

BACKGROUND: Recent guidelines in the UK have shaped Critical Care Units (CCUs) to bring the mental health needs of patients, and staff wellbeing to the forefront of service provision. A health board based in NHS Wales has trialled the secondment of a Mental Health Nurse (RMN) within a CCU to help service provision adhere to such guidelines. METHODS: Critical care staff were invited to attend focus groups to share their experiences of how the RMN influenced service provision...

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been characterized by impairments among distributed functional brain networks, e.g., the frontoparietal network (FPN), default mode network (DMN), and reward and motivation-related circuits (RMN). In the current study, we evaluated the complexity and functional connectivity (FC) of resting state fMRI (rsfMRI) in pre-adolescents with ADHD for pathology-relevant networks. We leveraged data from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study. The final study sample included 63 children with ADHD and 92 healthy control children matched on age, sex, and pubertal development status...

Current evidence suggests understaffing is related to poor quality and missed care in a global context, but this relationship is complex. There is also a research gap for quality in mental health care in the United Kingdom that includes a wider set of patient outcomes. This paper aims to investigate RMN's perception of quality of care on their last shift, their self-reported reasons for compromised care and potential impact on patient outcomes. A mixed methods approach, we used descriptive statistics to create a framework within which to qualitatively analyse data from the 2017 Royal College of Nursing (RCN) employment survey to consider the complex relationship between understaffing and care quality...

Hexagonal manganites, RMnO3 (R = Sc, Y, Ho-Lu), are potential oxygen storage materials for air separation due to their reversible oxygen storage and release properties. Their outstanding ability to absorb and release oxygen at relatively low temperatures of 250-400 °C holds promise of saving energy compared to current industrial methods. Unfortunately, the low temperature of operation also implies slow kinetics of oxygen exchange in these materials, which would make them inefficient in applications such as chemical looping air separation...

Single crystals of RMn x Ga3 and their new quaternary derivatives R4 Mn1- x Ga12- y Ge y (R = Tb, Dy, x ≤ 0.25, y ≈ 1.0-3.3) were grown from a Ga flux. The compounds are derivatives of cubic RGa3 phases, with Mn atoms filling the Ga6 voids. RMn x Ga3 formally adopts a cubic ABO3 perovskite structure, in which the presence of Mn atoms results in a shift of the neighboring Ga atoms from their ideal position. A partial substitution of Ga by Ge leads to a higher Mn content, resulting in structural ordering of the latter and the formation of the superstructure phases R4 Mn1- x Ga12- y Ge y , which can be formally described in the Y4 PdGa12 structure type...

BACKGROUD: Cavo- tricuspid isthmus dependent atrial flutter (CTI- AFL) is a common atrial arrhythmia in patients with prior cardiac surgery (postsurgical AFL) and without prior cardiac surgery (nonsurgical AFL). However, there is only limited data regarding the eletrophysiological differences between the CTI- AFL in the postsurgical patients and the nonsurgical patients. HYPOTHESIS: We aimed to investigate the differences in clinical and electrophysiological characteristics between the postsurgical group and nonsurgical group and to evaluate the acute and long-term outcomes after ablation guided by robotic magnetic navigation (RMN) in both the groups...
