Summary Introduction Major lower extremity amputations occurring secondary to vascular disease remain prevalent worldwide. Pain surrounding these procedures is complex, multifactorial and associated with poor functional and psychosocial outcomes. The evidence base informing pain management approaches in major lower extremity amputations remain largely ...

In Vitro Hemocompatibility of the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart in Continuous and Pulsatile Flow
BiVACOR's total artificial heart generates remarkably similar hemocompatibility when operated with a pulse or during continuous flow. Under both conditions, hemolysis and von Willebrand Factor multimers were similar to a commercial reference device after 6 h in vitro evaluation.

Trial‐Based Hemolysis Modeling to Investigate Operating Modes of Continuous‐Flow LVADs
This work presents a methodology for determining online‐capable hemolysis models for continuous‐flow LVADs, derived from in vitro trials. The models are based on fitting a modified power law and applying the Lagrangian approach. They assist clinicians in selecting treatment strategies that minimize hemolysis, as demonstrated with the Sputnik1 LVAD ...

Percutaneous femoro‐femoral V‐A ECMO cannulation was associated with more than a two‐fold lower risk of site bleeding and nearly a six‐fold lower risk of infection compared with surgical cut‐down, with no difference in limb ischemia. Absence of distal perfusion catheterization and larger arterial cannula size were additional modifiable ischemia risk ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...

ABSTRACT Objective The replacement of missing maxillary lateral incisors poses both functional and esthetic challenges, not only from a restorative but also from a periodontal aspect. This case report presents a step‐by‐step protocol for ideal hard and soft‐tissue esthetics with cantilever zirconia ceramic resin‐bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs).

Biomaterials for Reconstructive Treatment of Peri‐Implantitis
Reconstructive therapy should be implemented in contained defects. Various bone filler materials with or without a barrier membrane and/or adjunctive biologics may be applied. ABSTRACT Peri‐implantitis is a pathological condition affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants, marked by inflammation of the peri‐implant connective tissue and ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...
