Every Thursday morning we go out to help the poor, the aged and HIV/Aids sufferers with food, clothing and to do the paperwork for those who are illiterate and eligible for a government pension (about US$20 a month)
This image was for a special occasion… Christmas! Each child received a chocolate, some sweets, toys and clothing, so it was very special for them. This little boy, an AIDS orphan, is looked after by his grandmother who has to survive on the above pension and our 'handouts' every Thursday – a loaf of bread, some meal and whatever we have managed to collect during the week.
All the proceeds from the sale of this image will go to the Redhouse Benevolent Society.
a beautiful and touching portrait Mugsy and a wonderful charity too – nice one :0)
Cool shot and awesome cause. Where is this?
Is this from the hospices in SA?
Just outside Port Elizabeth, on the outskirts of a township called 'Veeplaas'. It is one of the poorest communities in this area. It makes you realise that, no matter how little you've got, it's a lot more than these people will ever have….. no running water, no electricity, living in shacks. Very sad.
And some of them get mugged on their way back home!
Mugsy, thats a really touching story… I don't have any money, but my belly is full and I have a roof over my head, so I figure I can buy at least one of these. I hope others can do more for you!
No Michael, the hospices deal mainly with terminally ill patients… They too, are in dire financial straits.
Thanks Catchlight….. it's going to be a long haul, but this I promise you……… It's really going to be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!
And, thank you!
great shot
nice portrait and good facial expression, great cause to help. , well done
Keep up the good work Mugsy, lovely portrait.

Re: AMD X6 OC - Please post your results
Hey guys got my AMD Phenom II X6 1090T today with a very cheap Gigabyte GA880GM-UD2H. I have done limited overclocking as i don't want to push my 600w PSU but wow i am blown away by these processors.
I had a QX9650 @ 4.33GHz w/ 1.55 till it died along with the P5N-D due to my power supply which it too died. But damn this CPU is so powerful i have left Turbo core on and using the default 3.2GHz but when turbo kicks in goes to 4.2GHz and the best thing is i have NOT even touched the voltage!! So 3 cores run at 4.2GHz and the other 3 downclock, games play amazingly.
I also have HT running at 2.6GHz each way for a total of 5.2GHz rather then the default 4GHz. Have not benched many games but in Dawn of war 2 i got 62fps on my QX9650 @ 4.33GHz and the Phenom II X6 @ 4.2GHz scores 66fps.
Best £215 i have spent and thats for the CPU, motherboard and 4GB PC12800 Ram.
Turbo core is excellent! i can have my system cool and quiet yet very high performance when needed. After all games use 2 threads mainly which is on CPU 1 and 2. I have ran prim 95 on 6 cores at 3.2GHz as turbo core does not kick in but yet windows is still very responsive as if i am not even running the program yet all cores are under 100% load.
When i had it first setup videos would be out of sync and pause intermittedly. So uninstalled the Audio drivers from Gigabytes site and used the ones from Guru 3D and completly cured it.
Re: AMD X6 OC - Please post your results
I am so tempted to snag one of these because of cost/performance - Got to make myself wait to see what's coming from both camps though.
Re: AMD X6 OC - Please post your results
I have further been able to tweak it so it runs at 3.92GHz and with a voltage bump for turbo hits 4.5GHz on top of that have cool n quiet enabled so throttles down to 800MHz and 1.15v when doing little or nothing :D
Re: AMD X6 OC - Please post your results
I also have a hard time figuring our the ram speed

Flock Of Hens

Cupcakes for daughter's Kindergarten class. Got the idea of hens from Good Housekeeping. Used a boiled frosting for the hens, when it dried it was easier to eat than hardened royal icing and held up better than a glob of buttercream in the sun (outdoor party in the South). The nest is made of canned chinese noodles.

AT&T Installs $10M Antenna System In Mercedes-Benz Superdome
Published January 9, 2012
Cellphone users attending Saturday's Saints-Lions NFC Wild Card game at Mercedes-Benz Superdome should have had "an easier time sending photos and messages to friends, thanks to AT&T's completion of a $10 million 'distributed antenna system' in the Dome," according to Mark Schleifstein of the New Orleans TIMES-PICAYUNE. AT&T Senior PR Manager Sue Sperry said that the system actually "extends coverage serving older 3-G and new 4-G phones to Champions Square." She added that a 70-mile network of cables is "connecting the new system's nerve center in a Superdome garage with 950 antennas." The new antenna system "is the equivalent of 200 traditional cell towers." Sperry said, "It's the largest system of its kind in the world, and has twice the capacity of the system that was recently installed in Cowboy Stadium." Verizon has "agreed to piggyback onto the system, but the company must install its own equipment to make that happen." Sperry said that the system is "available for use by other cellphone companies, but none has agreed to do so yet." AT&T is being charged a "$175,000 annual licensing fee to cover the space needed for the system in the Dome." The other cell companies will "pay AT&T a fee for a share of the installation costs, and licensing fees to SMG," the Dome's operator (New Orleans TIMES-PICAYUNE, 1/7).

EOF - Prisons vs. Horizons
The most important strategic moves in the tech world are more often orthogonal than oppositional. Put another way, capture is vertical while freedom is horizontal. If you want to escape from prison, you have to go sideways. And the outside is infinitely wider than the inside—higher too, but first you have to get out. If open is your strategy, ya gotta move laterally—to the outside, toward the horizons.
Last month, I wrote about how Apple's iPhone, the most cushy prison ever created for both developers and users, is challenged less by competing prisons than by open smartphones based on Google's Android. To review, the iPhone is a silo that stands on one company's closed OS and hardware. It is equipped with a slick SDK, rules galore about how products should run and developers behave, and a single retail sphincter—the iTunes "store"—through which all products, even ones that cost the customer nothing, are sold. Meanwhile, Android phones are restricted only in the sense that they have one (Linux-based) operating system, which is open to improvement and adaptation by anybody. There's no limit to its horizons.
So, while Apple has raised the bar for what smartphones can do, Google is now widening it. (So, for that matter, is Symbian, another open smartphone operating system that has more users than Apple's and Google's phones put together. Disclosure: I consult the Symbian Foundation.)
And now, with Apple's new iPad, the open OS folks have another category to widen. Fortunately, Apple has made it easier this time. That's because the iPad is a much narrower silo than the iPhone.
While smartphones are extensions of one's self (they are, primarily, phones), the iPad is mostly a consumption device. It is built to "deliver content" and to get money for it. All the other stuff the iPad does—e-mail, browsing, looking at picture albums and home videos—is gravy. The meat of the iPad is its system for pumping out content and getting money for it. Among the goods for sale through iPads are TV shows, movies, newspapers, magazines and books. In other words, the iPad is a better Kindle, with video and audio as well as print. Apple is also much better at playing this whole game—closed distribution through closed gear—than Amazon. Already (at the time this writing, in early February) Apple is winning "the e-book battle" by giving publishers what Amazon wouldn't give them: the ability to charge higher prices.
But content trapped in prisons is not the whole world, or even a majority of it. There's a limit to how big you can make a prison, and to the appeal of any prison to potential occupants. All these prisons still stand on the Net, which was built as a place where anybody can make and share (or sell, or both) anything. What we need now in that wide-open space are tablets that are more than real nice ways to "consume content".
We're sure to get them. Google is reportedly already working on one (or more) Android-based tablets. Maemo-based ones from Nokia have been coming out for half a decade and are bound to get better. I would love it if the Dells, Acers and HPs of the world would come through with open tablets based on open Linux OSes—and market them aggressively. I suppose one or more of them will, eventually. Meanwhile, we'll get what we want anyway. It's a big world, with lots of hardware makers.
What I'm worried about isn't the silos—or silos alone. The biggest dangers show up one layer down, where the Net's wide-open spaces are being carved up and fenced off while our leading blabbermouths are distracted, as usual, by vendor sports and other narrow concerns. Some of the carving is between silos. And while it's worth worrying about how much "content" gets locked up and how, there are problems just as big, if not bigger, at the national level. Writes Stephen Lewis, "By resting on a 'borrowed' infrastructure, the Internet has inherited the 'gatekeepers' that own and control, charge for, and regulate these legacy elements....Such organizations still carve up the world according to geopolitical entities and borders defined between the late-eighteenth century and the mid-twentieth and gerrymander services and access accordingly."
Nowhere is this a bigger deal than in China, where the Internet is replaced by a highly censored "Cinternet". The Open Net Initiative reports that more than 40 countries filter the Net, affecting more than a half-billion users.
Where the two threats—corporate silos and restrictive natures of nations—come together is around copyright. Here the frictions meet and lock. The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA), currently being negotiated between the US, the European Union and other national entities, would, in the words of Aaron Shaw, "include sweeping provisions to criminalize information use practices currently allowed under US, European, and international law." Thus, to protect influential industries from "piracy" on the Net's high seas, ACTA would drain the oceans, replacing them with well-guarded canals.
All new regulations have the effect of protecting yesterday from last week. The irony here is that the Internet—even in its currently restricted places—is the best platform for tomorrow that humans have ever invented. If ACTA passes, it will find eager enforcers in the private prisons already being built.

Apple, Android and beyond
Well, Mike, this is what happens when one writes 800 words several months ago.
Since I wrote this I have acquired both an iPad and an Android phone. The short of my preliminary conclusions are, Points Taken. I also still stand by what I said about the roles of verticalizers and horizontalizers.
I think the problem for Android right now is the distance it stands from the rest of the Linux community, though I don't have a clear enough picture of that.
Since I wrote the piece, Symbian has been pushed down-market by Nokia while the company has joined forces with Intel on Meego , which is also Linux-based. I'm curious to know what you and other readers think of that.

Prison or walled garden?
I am a long time Linux user (~1995) and a strong supporter of open source but Android just isn't cutting it. Glossing over it's shortcomings will keep it from ever being as good as iOS. It lacks polish, lets device manufacturers and phone carriers distort the intended user-experience, usability is poor, and it's security doesn't keep users from harming themselves. The same things that have kept Linux from success on the desktop are what will keep Android from success.
You call the iPhone a prison but to most it's a walled garden that keeps out all the things they don't want. The Android experience is mixed at best and falls into the old problem of giving users to much rope to hang themselves with and poor security on the application level. It also forces users to deal with security issues to buy and use apps. This is fine for us geeks but for the average user it is a bad thing.
It's total BS that the iPad is mostly a consumption device. Many apps exist for making and editing various types of content. I write code and edit documents on it as well as using it to manage my servers. Anybody that wants to can pay a small fee and become a developer in which case they are free to write any type of app they want for their own use and usually can distribute those apps to others. If people want content creation apps then they'll get content creation apps. Since iOS is largely a Unix device and apps can mostly be written in C you can port most Linux apps to iOS with little effort.
It is the job of Apple and Amazon to make recommendations on what publishers charge but not to artificially limit what they can charge. It's consumers job to limit what publishers charge. If a product is overpriced then don't buy it. I have bought a couple books on iBooks but none over $7.99 (and that was just one, an Orson Scott Card book - a very established author). I personally think over $4.99 for a eBook is a rip off and won't often cross that barrier but I'd buy several books a week at a more reasonable price such as $2.99. Amazon could have a major advantage in this area for me if they could arrange to offer the eBook for a small extra fee ($.99?) for those that have already purchased the paper version.

I'm sure this is done to save some battery life. Only allow the watchface webpage to update if it's active.
I'm curious if it's something that could be coded against. Essentially, capture the wake event, present a black screen for one second after waking, and then update to show the correct time initially.
Not the best solution, but could be a workaround.

So glad we came here - a beautifully elegant restaurant, attentive waiter and delicious food made a wonderful evening that I definitely recommend. We were offered an array of mezes to start and chose three that were equally delicious, spinach and pine nuts, aubergine and yoghurt and some marinated anchovies, all well prepared and tasty. My main was the braised lamb, wonderfully tender and sweet, my partner's kofta equally well received. Unfortunately both too full for desert but good Turkish coffee and tea followed. The overall feeling was relaxed, chilled, charming and well-fed ! Can't wait to go back.

Sex app user says at 13 he was groomed by older man
11 February 2014 Last updated at 01:32 GMT
Aaron, 18, from Liverpool says he downloaded a "hook-up" app five years ago to explore his sexuality and ended up being groomed by an older man.
It comes as the National Crime Agency warns users on the apps like Grindr, Blendr and Scruff to ensure the people they're meeting for casual sex are above the age of consent.
"I was struggling with my sexuality so having something on my phone I could easily download was one way of meeting people who were gay that I could relate to" Aaron said.
App designers say users must confirm they are of appropriate age - over 17 - before signing up. They also say people who break their terms and conditions will have their profiles closed.
Aaron was speaking to Newsbeat reporter Declan Harvey.

Article: Implantable cardioverter‐defibrillator therapy in a 34‐year‐old patient with eating disorders and after the third sudden cardiac arrest[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Eating disorders (ED) such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia are psychiatric diseases associated with the highest mortality rate of any other psychiatric disorders. More recently, long-term outcome studies with follow-up of over 20 years report a mortality of between 15% and 18% (Casiero and Frishman, Cardiol Rev 14(5), 227, 2006). The sudden death secondary to arrhythmias is often the cause of death in these patients (Casiero and Frishman, Cardiol Rev 14(5), 227, 2006). A case of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia (VA) in a patient with ED is presented. Clinical records (cardiologic, psychiatric), electrocardiograms, echocardiogram, coronary angiogram, cardiac magnetic resonance, and endocrine diagnostics were performed. Finally a cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) was implanted in the patient after her third cardiac arrest. An optimal approach to antiarrhythmic therapy in such patients is a real challenge for a cardiologist. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

ABSTRACT: New statistical and spectral detectors, the modified matched pairs t test, the extended spectral method and the modified spectral method, were proposed for T-wave alternans (TWA) detection gaining robustness according to trend and single-frequency interferences. They were compared to classic detectors such as matched pairs t test, unpaired t test, spectral method, generalized likelihood ratio test and estimated TWA amplitude within a simulation framework and applied to real data. The optimal detection threshold was selected by using a full Monte-Carlo simulation where signals, with and without alternans episodes, were corrupted by Gaussian noise with different power and single-frequency interferences with different tones. All the combinations of noise and frequency were selected and repeated 500 times in order to compute probability of detection ( \(P_{\mathrm{d}}\) ) and the false alarm probability ( \(P_{\mathrm{fa}}\) ), providing ROC curves. The study group consisted of 50 patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (age: \(55.3 \pm 16.4\) ; LVEF: \(42.8 \pm 15.5\) ), who were paced (ventricular pacing) at 100 bpm. Two-minute recordings were analyzed. The XYZ orthogonal lead system was used. The best performance was reached by using the modified matched pairs t test (in comparison with the spectral method and other reference methods).Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing 02/2015; DOI:10.1007/s11517-015-1243-5 · 1.50 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Still increasing life expectancy for patients with implanted devices : and with large number of leads more and more often induces the need to cure the treatment complications or to change especially to CRT therapy. In order to prevent further complications, the possibility of damaged or redundant leads extraction should be taken into consideration. The aim of the paper was to assess the effectiveness and safety of transvenous lead extraction with co-implantation of resynchronization systems.

Article: Effectiveness of antitachycardia pacing therapy after primary prophylaxis implantation of implantable defibrillators in coronary artery disease patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Purpose Effectiveness of implantable defibrillators (ICD) has been proven with large randomized trials. Unfortunately, ICD discharge is painful and potentially threatening for the patient despite its life saving effects. We analyzed influence of the clinical parameters present before implantation on the effectiveness of antitachycardia pacing therapy (ATP) in terminating ventricular tachycardia (VT) slower than 200 bpm in the coronary artery disease patients with prophylactic implanted ICD in a single centre retrospective trial. Patients/methods We analyzed 121 consecutive coronary disease patients with ICD implanted in primary prophylaxis between 2001 and 2007, with the mean age of 62 ± 10 years. The mean follow-up was 876 ± 538 days. Results 32 of them had VT. In 27 persons (84.4%) at least one ATP attempt terminate VT. ATP was always successful in 21 patients. We analyzed age, sex, LVEF, NYHA class, widening of QRS complex, atrial fibrillation, type of myocardial infarction or diabetes. There were no significant differences in clinical features between patients with successful and unsuccessful ATP therapy. Conclusions High effectiveness of ATP was shown in this group. There were no clinical factors indicating success of this type of therapy. That could justify programming ATP as the first line therapy in the VT zone in primary prophylaxis coronary artery disease patients to reduce application of shock therapy. It should be possible to apply a single mode of programming when discharging patients after the implantation procedure regardless of the patient's clinical condition. This could help to control and programme the devices, thus reducing the risk of errors.Advances in Medical Sciences 09/2014; DOI:10.1016/j.advms.2013.12.004 · 0.96 Impact Factor

Article: Endocardial Lead Extraction in the Polish Registry - clinical practice versus current Heart Rhythm Society consensus[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Introduction: Over the last 10 years, there has been an increasing number of patients with pacemaker (PM) and cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). This study is a retrospective analysis of indications for endocardial pacemaker and ICD lead extractions between 2003 and 2009 based on the experience of three Polish Referral Lead Extraction Centers. Material and methods: Since 2003, the authors have consecutively retrospectively collected all cases and entered the information in the database. All patients which had indication for lead extraction according to Heart Rhythm Society Guidelines were included to final analyze. Between 2003 and 2005, the data were analyzed together. Since 2006, data have been collected and analyzed annually. Results: In each year, a significant increase in lead extraction was observed. The main indications for LE were infections in 52.4% of patients. Nonfunctioning lead extraction constituted the second group of indications for LE in 29.7% of patients. During the registry period, the percentage of class I indications decreased from 80% in 2006 to only 47% in 2009. On the other hand, increasingly more leads were removed because of class 2, especially class 2b. In 2009, 40% of leads were extracted due to class 2b. Conclusions: Polish Registry of Endocardial Lead Extraction 2003-2009, shows an increasing frequency of lead extraction. The main indication for LE is infection: systemic and pocket. An increase in class 2, especially 2b, LE indication in every center during the study period was found.Archives of Medical Science 05/2014; 10(2):258-65.

Article: [National Consultant in Cardiology Experts' Group Guidelines on dealing with patients implanted with some St. Jude Medical Riata and Riata ST leads].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In December 2010 St. Jude Medical informed about higher incidence of silicone insulation abrasion in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads Riata/Riata ST. The manifestation of this phenomenon is the externalisation of conductors outside the body of the lead, which is visible in a fluoroscopy. The abrasion could also involve an insulation under high-voltage coil and in the worst case could result in a short circuit within high voltage part of the system. The incidence of this phenomenon varies from part of to several dozen percent according to published papers and becomes higher in a longer follow-up. The highest probability of malfunction in 8 F single coil and the lowest in 7 F dual-coil leads is observed. For the needs of this guidelines all Riata/Riata ST leads were divided into: functioning, damaged but active (visible externalisation but electrically functioning), malfunctioning. In the last case the lead should be removed and a new one implanted (class of indication I) ,although only implantation of a new lead with abandoning malfunctioning one is allowed and should be considered (IIa). In patients with functioning lead extraction with a new lead implantation may be considered during elective replacement only in high risk patients (IIb). In case of damaged but active lead its extraction with the implantation of a new lead during elective replacement of the device should be considered in high risk population (IIa) and may be considered in other patients (IIb). The final decision related to Riata/Riata ST should be individualised and undertaken in co-operation with the patient after detailed assessment of the risk related to each treatment option.Kardiologia polska 01/2014; 72(6):576-82.

ABSTRACT: The paper presents a diagnostic algorithm for classifying cardiac tachyarrhythmias for implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs). The main aim was to develop an algorithm that could reduce the rate of occurrence of inappropriate therapies, which are often observed in existing ICDs. To achieve low energy consumption, which is a critical factor for implantable medical devices, very low computational complexity of the algorithm was crucial. The study describes and validates such an algorithm and estimates its clinical value. The algorithm was based on the heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. The input data for our algorithm were: RR-interval (I), as extracted from raw intracardiac electrogram (EGM), and in addition two other features of HRV called here onset (ONS) and instability (INST). 6 diagnostic categories were considered: ventricular fibrillation (VF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), sinus tachycardia (ST), detection artifacts and irregularities (including extrasystoles) (DAI), atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATF) and no tachycardia (i.e. normal sinus rhythm) (NT). The initial set of fuzzy rules based on the distributions of I, ONS and INST in the 6 categories was optimized by means of a software tool for automatic rule assessment using simulated annealing. A training data set with 74 EGM recordings was used during optimization, and the algorithm was validated with a validation data set with 58 EGM recordings. Real life recordings stored in defibrillator memories were used. Additionally the algorithm was tested on 2 sets of recordings from the PhysioBank databases: MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database and MIT-BIH Supraventricular Arrhythmia Database. A custom CMOS integrated circuit implementing the diagnostic algorithm was designed in order to estimate the power consumption. A dedicated Web site, which provides public online access to the algorithm, has been created and is available for testing it. The total number of events in our training and validation sets was 132. In total 57 shocks and 28 antitachycardia pacing (ATP) therapies were delivered by ICDs. 25 out of 57 shocks were unjustified: 7 for ST, 12 for DAI, 6 for ATF. Our fuzzy rule-based diagnostic algorithm correctly recognized all episodes of VF and VT, except for one case where VT was recognized as VF. In four cases short lasting, spontaneously ending VT episodes were not detected (in these cases no therapy was needed and they were not detected by ICDs either). In other words, a fuzzy logic algorithm driven ICD would deliver one unjustified shock and deliver correct therapies in all other cases. In the tests, no adjustments of our algorithm to individual patients were needed. The sensitivity and specificity calculated from the results were 100% and 98%, respectively. In 126 ECG recordings from PhysioBank (about 30min each) our algorithm incorrectly detected 4 episodes of VT, which should rather be classified as fast supraventricular tachycardias. The estimated power consumption of the dedicated integrated circuit implementing the algorithm was below 120nW. The paper presents a fuzzy logic-based control algorithm for ICD. Its main advantages are: simplicity and ability to decrease the rate of occurrence of inappropriate therapies. The algorithm can work in real time (i.e. update the diagnosis after every RR-interval) with very limited computational resources.Artificial intelligence in medicine 12/2013; DOI:10.1016/j.artmed.2013.12.004 · 1.65 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The increasing number of patients (pts) with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) causes a rise in the absolute percentage of individuals qualifying for a transvenous lead extraction (TLE) due to infectious, vascular or lead failure related indications. As the survival time prolongs, TLE procedures more and more often concern the electrodes of long-term functioning Authors provide the retrospective analysis of the effectiveness and safety of TLE performed on leads implanted at least 10 years before the extraction. Between 2008 - 2012 we performed TLE of 364 electrodes in 217 pts. Out of these, 66 (18.1%) leads in 43 (19.8%) pts had been implanted for at least 10 years. The mean dwelling time for electrodes was 161 months (120 to 330). In 62% cases CIED-related infection was an indication for TLE. The following extracting techniques were used: manual direct traction, device traction, mechanical telescopic sheaths, autorotational cutting sheaths and femoral approach. 58 pacemaker and 8 defibrillating leads were extracted. 63 (95%) completely , in the remain 3 cases the clinical success was achieved with the small portion of the lead left into the vascular space. No major procedure complications were observed; minor complications were found in 3 pts (6%). Transvenous lead extraction with the use of various endovascular techniques is an effective and safe method for treating infectious, vascular and mechanical complications of long-lasting CIEDs therapy.Cardiology journal 10/2013; 21(4).

Article: Reduction of the Inappropriate ICD Therapies by Implementing a New Fuzzy Logic-Based Diagnostic Algorithm.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to analyze the value of a completely new fuzzy logic-based detection algorithm (FA) in comparison with arrhythmia classification algorithms used in existing ICDs in order to demonstrate whether the rate of inappropriate therapies can be reduced. On the basis of the RR intervals database containing arrhythmia events and controls recordings from the ICD memory a diagnostic algorithm was developed and tested by a computer program. This algorithm uses the same input signals as existing ICDs: RR interval as the primary input variable and two variables derived from it, onset and stability. However, it uses 15 fuzzy rules instead of fixed thresholds used in existing devices. The algorithm considers 6 diagnostic categories: (1) VF (ventricular fibrillation), (2) VT (ventricular tachycardia), (3) ST (sinus tachycardia), (4) DAI (artifacts and heart rhythm irregularities including extrasystoles and T-wave oversensing-TWOS), (5) ATF (atrial and supraventricular tachycardia or fibrillation), and 96) NT (sinus rhythm). This algorithm was tested on 172 RR recordings from different ICDs in the follow-up of 135 patients. All diagnostic categories of the algorithm were present in the analyzed recordings: VF (n = 35), VT (n = 48), ST (n = 14), DAI (n = 32), ATF (n = 18), NT (n = 25). Thirty-eight patients (31.4%) in the studied group received inappropriate ICD therapies. In all these cases the final diagnosis of the algorithm was correct (19 cases of artifacts, 11 of atrial fibrillation and 8 of ST) and fuzzy rules algorithm implementation would have withheld unnecessary therapies. Incidence of inappropriate therapies: 3 vs. 38 (the proposed algorithm vs. ICD diagnosis, respectively) differed significantly (p < 0.05). VT/VF were detected correctly in both groups. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated: 100%, 97.8%, and 100%, 72.9% respectively for FA and tested ICDs recordings (p < 0.05). Diagnostic performance of the proposed fuzzy logic based algorithm seems to be promising and its implementation could diminish ICDs inappropriate therapies. We found FA usefulness in correct diagnosis of sinus tachycardia, atrial fibrillation and artifacts in comparison with tested ICDs.Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology 09/2013; 18(5):457-66.

Article: LMNA mutations in Polish patients with dilated cardiomyopathy: prevalence, clinical characteristics, and in vitro studies.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: LMNA mutations are most frequently involved in the pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy with conduction disease. The goal of this study was to identify LMNA mutations, estimate their frequency among Polish dilated cardiomyopathy patients and characterize their effect both in vivo and in vitro. METHODS: Between January, 2008 and June, 2012 two patient populations were screened for the presence of LMNA mutations by direct sequencing: 66 dilated cardiomyopathy patients including 27 heart transplant recipients and 39 dilated cardiomyopathy patients with heart failure referred for heart transplantation evaluation, and 44 consecutive dilated cardiomyopathy patients, referred for a family evaluation and mutation screening. RESULTS: We detected nine non-synonymous mutations including three novel mutations: p.Ser431*, p.Val256Gly and p.Gly400Argfs*11 deletion. There were 25 carriers altogether in nine families. The carriers were mostly characterized by dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure with conduction system disease and/or complex ventricular arrhythmia, although five were asymptomatic. Among the LMNA mutation carriers, six underwent heart transplantation, fourteen ICD implantation and eight had pacemaker. In addition, we obtained ultrastructural images of cardiomyocytes from the patient carrying p.Thr510Tyrfs*42. Furthermore, because the novel p.Val256Gly mutation was found in a sporadic case, we verified its pathogenicity by expressing the mutation in a cellular model. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, in the two referral centre populations, the screening revealed five mutations among 66 heart transplant recipients or patients referred for heart transplantation (7.6%) and four mutations among 44 consecutive dilated cardiomyopathy patients referred for familial evaluation (9.1%). Dilated cardiomyopathy patients with LMNA mutations have poor prognosis, however considerable clinical variability is present among family members.BMC Medical Genetics 05/2013; 14(1):55.

ABSTRACT: Venous occlusion is a relatively common complication of endocardial lead implantation. It may cause a critical problem when implantation of a new lead is needed. Traditional methods result in leaving abandoned leads. The optimal approach seems to be the extraction of the damaged or abandoned lead, regaining venous access and implantation of a new lead. To assess the efficacy and safety of new lead implantation by the method of lead extraction. All transvenous lead extraction procedures (203 patients) between 1 August 2008 and 15 October 2012 were assessed. The analysis included cases with leads implanted for at least 6 months prior to extraction. Regaining venous access was the main indication for lead extraction in 5 patients (4.9%). The reason for new lead implantation was lead damage (n = 7) and system up-grade to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) (n = 3). In total, 23 leads were extracted (9 defibrillation leads, 12 pacing leads and 2 left ventricular leads). The mean time from the implantation was 92.2 ±43.2 (48-152) months. In all cases Cook mechanical sheaths were applied. The use of the Evolution system was necessary to extract 3 leads. In all cases the new leads were successfully implanted as planned. No serious complications occurred. Diagnosis of venous occlusion should not be a contraindication for ipsilateral implantation of the new lead, because the techniques of transvenous lead extraction enable successful regaining of venous access.Postepy w Kardiologii Interwencyjnej / Advances in Interventional Cardiology 03/2013; 9(1):16-21.

Article: Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: atrial fibrillation type determines the success rate.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is generally associated with deterioration of the clinical status, functional capacity, and quality of life. It is also an independent risk factor for stroke and death. Studies evaluating the effectiveness of AF ablation in this cohort are relatively scant, have included relatively few patients, and their results are somewhat conflicting. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of catheter ablation of AF in patients with HCM. Thirty patients (10 females; mean age 48.7 ± 11 years) with drug-refractory paroxysmal (n = 14), persistent (n = 7), or long-persistent (> 1 year; n = 9) AF were prospectively recruited into the study. Eleven patients were in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class I, 13 patients were in NYHA class II, and 6 patients were in NYHA class III. Mean atrial volume was 180 ± 47 mL, interventricular septum thickness was 20.5 ± 6.3 mm, and left atrial area was 29.8 ± 6.2 cm2. Ablation protocol was adjusted to the clinical and electrophysiological status of the patients. Pulmonary vein isolation and bidirectional cavo-tricuspid isthmus block were performed in all patients. In addition, left atrial linear lesions were created and complex fragmented atrial potentials were ablated in patients with persistent and long-persistent AF, as well as during repeated procedures. At 12 months, stable sinus rhythm (SR) was present in 16 (53%) patients, significantly more frequently in patients with paroxysmal AF (71% in SR) compared to those with persistent (57.1% in SR) or long-persistent (22% in SR) AF. A significant reduction of AF burden was observed in 85.7% of patients with paroxysmal AF, 71.4% of patients with persistent AF, and 55.5% of patients with long-persistent AF. Single procedure success rate was 33% (10 patients), and repeat ablation procedures were performed in 13 patients. No periprocedural complications occurred. Thromboembolic events were noted in 2 patients with arrhythmia recurrence during the follow-up, including stroke in 1 patient and peripheral embolism in the other patient. In both these patients, heart failure worsening was observed during these events, and anticoagulation was inadequate in one of them. Five of 16 patients in whom stable SR was observed during the follow-up were off antiarrhythmic drug therapy at final evaluation. In the other 6 patients, antiarrhythmic drug therapy was continued due to ventricular arrhythmias. Successfully treated patients more often had paroxysmal AF (successful ablation: paroxysmal AF in 10 of 16 patients; unsuccessful ablation: paroxysmal AF in 4 of 14 patients; p = 0.009) and were younger (45 ± 11.5 years vs. 52.6 ± 9.2 years; p = 0.046). In addition, a trend toward a reduced need for cardioversion at the end of the procedure was also observed in these patients (3 patients in the successful ablation group vs. 8 patients in the unsuccessful ablation group; p = 0.056). In multivariate regression analysis, paroxysmal AF was the only independent predictor of a successful outcome. Catheter ablation of AF in patients with HCM is an effective and safe therapeutic option, particularly in patients with paroxysmal AF. Effectiveness of ablation is significantly smaller in patients with persistent AF and even more so in those with long-persistent AF. Repeated procedures were often necessary. Continued antiarrhythmic drug therapy is often required due to a significant degree of atrial remodelling.Kardiologia polska 01/2013; 71(1):17-24. · 0.52 Impact Factor
Article: Post heart transplant extraction of the abandoned fragments of pacing and defibrillation leads: proposed management algorithm[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: An increasing number of patients is referred for orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) after previous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) device implantation. To assess the rate of unsuccessful lead extractions during OHT and propose an appropriate management algorithm. Methods: The study population included 73 consecutive patients who underwent OHT in our hospital between January 2009 and December 2011. In the study group, 36 (49.3%) patients previously underwent ICD (21 patients, 28.8%) or CRT (15 patients, 20.5%) implantation. In 29 patients, all previously implanted leads were completely removed during transplantation. In 7 (19.5%) patients, fragments of the leads could not be removed and were abandoned due to their adherence to the venous system, including a proximal defibrillation coil in 6 cases and a fragment of a left ventricular lead in 1 case. All abandoned lead fragments were extracted after the transplantation (10-70 days, mean 27 days) either with manual traction techniques (1 case, left ventricular lead), or with the assistance of lead extraction sheaths (6 cases, dual-coil defibrillation leads). Due to lead fracture, it was necessary to use femoral approach in 1 case. No complications of lead extraction were noted. In a significant number of patients, previously implanted leads cannot be removed during OHT. Therefore, abandoned lead fragments should be removed after the transplantation using transvenous lead extraction techniques.Kardiologia polska 01/2013; 71(2):159-63.

ABSTRACT: A particularly dangerous condition in pregnant women is already dilated left ventricle with severe functional impairment. Taking as an example the case of woman with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) first diagnosed in 17th week of pregnancy, the paper discusses diagnostic, therapeutic challenges and management of heart failure during pregnancy. Repeat measurements of brain natiuretic peptide levels should be helpful in diagnosing heart failure. To distinguish DCM from peripartum cardiomyopathy the time of manifestation should be considered. The risk of serious events is associated with NYHA class and impairment of left ventricular ejection fraction. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) and angiotensin-II receptor blockers are contraindicated in pregnancy because of fetal toxicity. The incidence of sight effects is associated with time of administration of ACE-I and duration of treatment. Possible sight effects of drugs in fetus should be monitored (mainly ultrasonographically). ICD can be implanted during pregnancy if indicated. To assess the time and mode of delivery, a multidisciplinary team of different specialists is required. Subsequent pregnancy is contraindicated in a patient with DCM and low ejection fraction of left ventricle.Medical science monitor: international medical journal of experimental and clinical research 06/2012; 18(6):CQ9-13.

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic management in pregnant patients with heart failure still remains a challenge, even though in most pregnant women with cardiac diseases an outcome is good. A 32-year-old woman, 17 weeks pregnant, was admitted to hospital with heart failure (HF) NYHA class III/IV. Echocardiography revealed enlarged LV, LVEF 13%, significant mitral insufficiency and pulmonary hypertension. The patient wished to continue the pregnancy. In a life-threatening condition, metoprolol, enalapril, spironolactone (for 5 days), furosemide, and digitalis were administered. Enalapril was continued for 42 days. Then the patient was switched to a dihydralazine and isosorbide mononitrate regimen. The fetus was controlled ultrasonographically. In the 19th week of pregnancy, the patient's condition improved (NYHA class II, LVEF 23%). The patient experienced 2 more episodes of HF exacerbation. In the 26th week of pregnancy, in a primary prevention of sudden cardiac death and because of 2nd-degree AV block, an ICD was implanted. In the 32nd week of pregnancy a cesarean section was performed. A male infant was delivered. The patient made a good recovery and was discharged on the 7th postoperative day. The newborn was discharged after 4 weeks, in good general condition. At 1-year follow-up the patient presented NYHA class II.Medical science monitor: international medical journal of experimental and clinical research 04/2012; 18(5):CQ5-7.

Article: Ventricular fibrillation risk factors in over one thousand patients with accessory pathways[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Published data concerning risk factors of VF in WPW patients are inconsistent or contradictory. METHODS AND RESULTS: We included 1007 patient (pts) (mean age 35years; 45% female) with an accessory pathway (AP) referred for non pharmacological treatment. Group 1 consisted of 56 pts (42M, aged 34±15yrs) with an AP and documented VF and Group 2-951 pts (513M, aged 35±15yrs) with an AP and without VF. Univariate predictors of VF were: overt pre-excitation, male gender, multiple AP, large AP. Multivariate predictors were: overt pre-excitation, male gender and MAP. The mean shortest pre-excited RR interval during AF was significantly shorter in Group 1: 205±27 vs. 243±64, P=0.019. VF as an end point of the first arrhythmia episode (AVRT or AF) was observed in 20 pts (15M, 5F). Primary VF (no documented arrhythmia prior to aborted SCD) occurred in 16 pts (13M, 3F). The mean age of primary VF pts was significantly lower than of pts with history of AVRT or AVRT and/or AF (24.5 vs. 36.5 vs. 38yrs., P<0.005 and P=0.002, respectively). Age at VF occurrence shows a bi-modal distribution with peak occurrences in the 2-nd/3-rd and 5-th decades. CONCLUSION: In patients with an accessory pathway, overt pre-excitation, male gender and multiple AP constitute independent risk factors of VF episodes. Young patients in the 2-nd/3-rd and older patients in the 5-th decade might be at higher risk of VF occurrence.International journal of cardiology 02/2012; 167(2).

Article: QRS complex widening as a predictor of appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy and higher mortality risk in primary prevention ICD patients.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Effectiveness of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction after myocardial infarction has been documented in large randomised trials. We analysed the predictive value of clinical factors at the time of implantation for adequate ICD interventions and mortality risk. We analysed 121 consecutive patients (15 women, 106 [88%] men; mean age 62 ± 10 years) with coronary artery disease in whom ICD was implanted for primary prevention between 2001 and 2007. Mean duration of follow-up was 876 ± 538 days. Forty-four (36.4%) patients had adequate ICD interventions. In the Cox analysis, wider QRS complexes (hazard ration [HR] per each 10 ms increment: 1.13, confidence interval [CI] 1.039-1.229, p = 0.0045) and younger age at the time of ICD implantation (HR per each 10 year increment: 0.7, CI 0.5-0.9, p = 0.0081) were associated with a higher probability of adequate intervention. Wider QRS complexes were associated with a higher probability of electrical storm (HR 1.059, CI 1.014-1.045, p = 0.0002). During follow-up, 21 (17.4%) patients died. In the Cox analysis, wider QRS complexes (HR per each 10 ms increment: 1.123, CI 1.011-1.248, p = 0.0306 [in univariate analysis only]), older age at the time of implantation (HR per each 10 year increment: 1.7, CI 1.1-2.8, p = 0.0396) and higher NYHA class (HR 4.4, CI 1.7-11.5, p = 0.0022) were associated with increased mortality. Mortality was reduced by previous revascularisation (HR 0.3, CI 0.1-0.7, p = 0.006). Patients with wider QRS complexes at the time of ICD implantation had a higher probability of adequate device intervention and mortality risk. QRS complex widening was also associated with a higher incidence of electrical storm.Kardiologia polska 01/2012; 70(4):360-8. · 0.52 Impact Factor
