Dynamic simulation of aortic valve stenosis using a lumped parameter cardiovascular system model with flow regime dependent valve pressure loss characteristics [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Valvular heart diseases are growing concern in impoverished parts of the world, such as Southern-Africa, claiming more than 31 % of total deaths related to cardiovascular diseases. The ability to model the effects of regurgitant and obstructive lesions on the valve body can assist clinicians in preparing personalised treatments.

An echocardiographic comparison of sutureless and conventional aortic valve replacement : a matched case-control study [PDF]
, 2018 Background: Patients at a high operative risk for conventional aortic valve replacement (AVR) may be offered sutureless valve implantation. Sutureless valves resemble conventional valves but incorporate an anchoring mechanism without using annular ...

Artesunate Inhibits Neointimal Hyperplasia by Promoting IRF4 Associated Macrophage Polarization
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that macrophage interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) improved arterial injury‐induced neointimal hyperplasia by promoting of M2 polarization via up‐regulating krüppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4) in rodent and nonhuman primate models. Notably, artesunate is identified as a potent inducer of IRF4 in macrophages, and proposed as a promising ...

ProtoASNet: Dynamic Prototypes for Inherently Interpretable and Uncertainty-Aware Aortic Stenosis Classification in Echocardiography [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Aortic stenosis (AS) is a common heart valve disease that requires accurate and timely diagnosis for appropriate treatment. Most current automatic AS severity detection methods rely on black-box models with a low level of trustworthiness, which hinders clinical adoption. To address this issue, we propose ProtoASNet, a prototypical network that directly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The circRNA circNAB1 is downregulated in AF patient. Silencing circNAB1 promotes collagen deposition and inflammation, whereas overexpression reduces AF susceptibility. circNAB1 encodes the protein NAB1 356 that interacts with EGR1 to mitigate fibrosis and inflammation.

Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque distribution in the carotid artery
Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1272-1276, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background The present study was designed to investigate the hypothesis that the outer wall at the carotid bifurcation is the most common area of atherosclerotic plaque deposition due to the low shear stress. Hypothesis We hypothesized that the most common site of arteriosclerosis in carotid arteries is different in the early and late stages ...
