Leadless cardiac pacemakers (LCPs) are an effective and safe alternative to transvenous for single-chamber ventricular pacing. Feasibility of retrieving replacing long-term implanted LCPs is not well established. We report a small single center series chronically Nanostim LCP™ leadless pacemakers. Since 2012 there were 103 devices successfully the right ventricle (RV) position. In 45 patients (...

Context SGA (usually defined as birth-weight <10th centile) affects approximately 10% of pregnancies. Approximately 40% of non-anomalous stillborn infants are SGA, comprising a major contribution to the global public health problem of stillbirth. Optimising outcomes for SGA infants diagnosed before birth is affected by the competing risks of prematurity and, if pregnancy continues, late stillbi...

In order to study the relationship between random Boolean sets and some explanatory variables, this paper introduces a Propagation model. This model can be applied when corresponding Poisson process of the Boolean model is related to explanatory variables and the random grains are not affected by these variables. An approximation for the likelihood is used to find pseudo-maximum likelihood esti...
