Article Abstract
Intracavitary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) guidance is widely used for peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placement. The P wave variation has rarely been reported in persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC). Here, we report a PLSVC case of P wave variation in PICC placement guided by IC-ECG. In this case, the P wave variation of the PLSVC was quite different from that of the right superior vena cava (RSVC). The tip of the catheter was located at the lower segment of the left superior vena cava according to postoperative radiography examination. PICC functioned normally, and no complications occurred.

Purpose: Diagnostic cerebral venograms are the gold standard for evaluating cerebral venous sinus stenosis (CVSS). Venous sinus stenting (VSS) and less commonly venous sinus angioplasty are emerging endovascular treatments in pediatric patients. This study examines the baseline intracranial venous pressures and postoperative endovascular outcomes in pediatric patients with CVSS.

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding Superior Vena Cava Isolation (SVCI) to Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI) in patients with drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach, supplemented with Trial Sequential Analysis (TSA) to assess evidence sufficiency.
Data Sources: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) and Web of Science for relevant studies published up to 13 July 2025.

Introduction: Maintaining hemodynamic stability during the perioperative period of major neurosurgical procedures is of paramount importance. A major challenge for anesthesiologists during hemodynamic fluctuations is identifying the underlying cause to guide appropriate therapy. Limited literature is available on the utility of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) during hemodynamic fluctuations in major neurosurgery.

This study reports a case of a J-shaped guidewire entrapped in a Chiari network during central venous port insertion. A female patient in her 50s with breast cancer was referred for a single-lumen port placement. The subclavian vein was accessed using an 18 G needle under ultrasound guidance, and a 0.
