Transjugular Seldinger approach for permanent pacemaker implantation in octogenarian with inaccessible upper limbs venous system
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of Arrhythmia"
DOI: 10.1002/joa3.12287
Abstract: In up to 13.7% of device implants, lead entry through the cephalic, axillary, or subclavian veins might be unfeasible. Transjugular permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation may be considered as a bailout strategy in the difficult anatomy… read more here.

Upper-limb kinematics and kinetics imbalances in the determinants of front-crawl swimming at maximal speed in young international level swimmers
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-68581-3
Abstract: Short-distance swimmers may exhibit imbalances in their upper-limbs’ thrust (differences between the thrust produced by each upper-limb). At maximal speed, higher imbalances are related to poorer performances. Additionally, little is known about the relationship between… read more here.
