The Heart of a Horse: 3‐D Echocardiographic Analysis of the Equine Aortic Valve [PDF]
Aortic regurgitation (AR) can be a normal function of aging or a disease in younger horses. Symptoms range from no outward signs to decreased performance to sudden cardiac arrest.

A model is schematically represented for the major molecular mechanisms by which homocysteine (Hcy) accelerates the nuclear export of circ‐PIAS1‐5, which regulates atherosclerosis by acting as a competing endogenous RNA for miR‐219a‐2‐3p. Hcy enrichment of circ‐PIAS1‐5 leads to YTHDC1 binding to circ‐PIAS1‐5 and promotes its intracellular localization ...

Comparative study of wall shear stress at the ascending aorta for different mechanical heart valve prostheses [PDF]
An experimental study is reported which investigates the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a transparent model of the human aorta comparing a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) with a trileaflet mechanical heart valve (TMHV) in physiological ...

Dynamic simulation of aortic valve stenosis using a lumped parameter cardiovascular system model with flow regime dependent valve pressure loss characteristics [PDF]
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.

A unique hydrogel based on extracellular matrix from fish swim bladder, which is suitable for transcatheter delivery and possesses remarkable reparative capabilities for treating heart failure, is developed. It emerges as a multi‐effect factor profoundly influencing inflammation regulation, angiogenesis, and myocardial metabolism.

Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Fracture During Valve-in-valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
The limited durability of surgical bioprostheses, combined with an ageing population, has led to an increasing demand for replacing degenerated bioprosthetic surgical heart valves, which is projected to increase. Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation involves implanting a transcatheter heart valve within a degenerated bioprosthetic ...

Design and Fabrication of Three-Dimensional Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering of Human Heart Valves [PDF]
We developed a new fabrication technique for 3-dimensional scaffolds for tissue engineering of human heart valve tissue. A human aortic homograft was scanned with an X-ray computer tomograph.
