BACKGROUND Many patients receiving cardiac rhythm devices have conditions requiring antiplatelet (AP) and/or anticoagulant (AC) therapy. Current guidelines recommend a heparin-bridging strategy (HBS) for anticoagulated patients with moderate/high risk for thrombosis. Several studies reported lower bleeding risk with continued oral anticoagulation rather than HBS. The best strategy for periopera...

BACKGROUND The impact of neuraminidase inhibitors (NAIs) on influenza-related pneumonia (IRP) is not established. Our objective was to investigate the association between NAI treatment and IRP incidence and outcomes in patients hospitalised with A(H1N1)pdm09 virus infection. METHODS A worldwide meta-analysis of individual participant data from 20 634 hospitalised patients with laboratory-conf...

A bstract Coherence violation is an interesting and counter-intuitive phenomenon in QCD. We discuss the circumstances under which occurs observables sensitive to soft radiation arrive at conclusion that almost all such hadron colliders will violate coherence some degree. illustrate our discussion by considering gaps-between-jets observable, where super-leading, then we generalise other observab...
