MitraClip implantation followed by insertion of a left ventricular assist device in patients with advanced heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) is common in patients with advanced heart failure (HF). Percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) via MitraClip (MC) has emerged as a feasible treatment strategy for these high‐risk patients.

Rapid and Sensitive Quantification of Intracellular Glycyl-Sarcosine for Semi-High-Throughput Screening for Inhibitors of PEPT-1

Pharmaceutics, 2021
The peptide transporter PEPT-1 (SLC15A1) plays a major role in nutritional supply with amino acids by mediating the intestinal influx of dipeptides and tripeptides generated during food digestion.

Atrial fibrillation before heart transplantation is a risk factor for post‐transplant atrial fibrillation and mortality

ESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) after heart transplantation (HTX) is associated with worse clinical outcomes. The current study aimed to analyse the association between AF before HTX and AF within 30 days after HTX.

Antivasospastic Effects of Hydroxyfasudil, a Rho-Kinase Inhibitor, After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
We investigated the anti-vasospastic potential of fasudil’s active metabolite, hydroxyfasudil, a Rho-kinase inhibitor, after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and also its effect on hemorheological abnormalities following cerebral ischemia.

Dementia Incidence in Individuals With Parkinson's Disease in the Framingham Heart Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited information exists on incident dementia in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) in US community‐based samples. We examined cognitive statuses and PD diagnoses of 183 individuals in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) to establish incident dementia, mortality rates, associations with sex, age at PD onset, and education level.

Cracking the Code: Which Ocular Symptoms Predict Dry Eye Signs? Insights From a Large International Sicca Registry

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The study aimed to identify symptom‐based predictors of dry eye disease (DED) signs in the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (SICCA) cohort. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis examining 16 ocular symptoms (most graded 0–4) and artificial tear (AT) use (graded 0–3) as predictors of DED signs (abnormal ocular ...

A Thermodynamic 3D Model for the Simulation of Diffusion‐Controlled Alloying Processes in Heterogeneous Material Structures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical model resulting from irreversible thermodynamics for describing transport processes is introduced, focusing on thermodynamic activity gradients as the actual driving force for diffusion. Implemented in CUDA C++ and using CalPhaD methods for determining the necessary activity data, the model accurately simulates interdiffusion in aluminum ...

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...
