摘要: A cardiac ablation catheter (100) includes a coil-like ablating element (102) that is deployed from an elongate, flexible sheath (104). The ablating element (102), while in the deployed position, has a shape with at least one revolution oriented in a plane that is orthogonal to a longitudinal axis (108) of the sheath. The catheter system (100) is well-suited to ablate a circumferential region of tissue about a pulmonary vein or the posterior wall of the left atrium proximate the pulmonary vein os. The treated tissue region electrically isolates the atria from the pulmonary vein.

摘要: This invention relates to a method for inhibiting the growth of neoplasms, in a mammal having a prolactin profile. This method involves comparing the prolactin profile of the afflicted mammal to a standard prolactin profile for healthy mammals of the same species and sex and adjusting the prolactin profile of the afflicted mammal to conform to or approach the standard prolactin profile for a mammal of the same species and sex of the afflicted mammal, thereby inhibiting the neoplastic growth.
