Reversible High-Grade Av Block In Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report, Subin Paul

Dr. Jay W. Boland Research Day

High-grade atrioventricular (AV) block is typically managed with permanent pacemaker implantation when not attributable to reversible causes. Current guidelines recommend permanent pacing for acquired second-degree Mobitz type II, high-grade, or third-degree AV block unless due to a reversible or physiologic cause. Inferior wall acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a well-recognized reversible cause of AV block that may resolve after revascularization. However, the reversibility of high-grade AV block in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) but without acute MI is not well described.

Human-In-The-Loop Context Management For Ai Agents Via A Curated Artifact Workspace, Michael Kochera, Cristian Cavalli, John Lee, Besam Khidhir

Defensive Publications Series

Conventional management of session context in conversational artificial intelligence, such as automatic history accumulation, can be opaque and may contribute to token limit overruns. A system for human-in-the-loop, artifact-based context management can reframe a session into a user-controlled workspace. This method can replace implicit chronological history with a curated collection of discrete data objects, or artifacts. An agent's default access to session history may be disabled, prompting it to use a curated context. A user can select relevant artifacts through an interface, and the agent may retrieve their content on-demand using a retrieval-augmented generation pattern. This approach can provide granular …

Subscription-Driven Service Intent–Based Slice, Domain, And Node Selection In 5g–6g Converged Network Deployments, Niranjan M M, Rajaneesh Sudhakar Shetty, Srinivas Rao Karnati, Seung Cheol Park, Ravi Shekhar

Defensive Publications Series

Proposed herein is a mobile network system that introduces a subscription-driven service intent mechanism that enables deterministic, scalable, and access-agnostic selection of network slices, service domains, and network functions in 5G–6G converged deployments. A single, normalized Service Intent Indicator, provisioned as part of a user equipment (UE) subscription, represents the intended service characteristics associated with the subscriber and remains independent of the access technology, registration path, or network generation.  By decoupling service intent from access signaling and consolidating multiple selection decisions under a unified, subscription-driven abstraction, the proposed system simplifies network configuration, reduces operational risk, and ensures consistent service realization …
