The concept of entropy, often viewed as a measure of disorder or randomness, has been reevaluated in the context of nanotechnology and medicine. This paper proposes a novel framework rooted in O2 Z2 field theory, which posits that entropy can serve as a form of communication that enhances our unders …

Fetal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) may rapidly lead to heart failure and hydrops fetalis, particularly when associated with structural congenital heart disease. Ebstein anomaly represents a highly arrhythmogenic substrate. We report a case of severe, drug-resistant fetal SVT complicated by hyd …
