Aortic pathology from protein kinase G activation is prevented by an antioxidant vitamin B12 analog. [PDF]
People heterozygous for an activating mutation in protein kinase G1 (PRKG1, p.Arg177Gln) develop thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) as young adults.

Magnetic guidewires enable remote navigation in tortuous vasculature but often suffer from limited controllability, inefficient force transmission, and safety risks at bifurcations. This work presents a dual‐coil magnetic guidewire actuated by an external permanent magnet, enabling two steering modes with smooth curvature control and improved axial ...

Fluid dynamics of aortic root dilation in Marfan syndrome
Aortic root dilation and propensity to dissection are typical manifestations of the Marfan Syndrome (MS), a genetic defect leading to the degeneration of the elastic fibres. Dilation affects the structure of the flow and, in turn, altered flow may play a

Social rank in greater long‐tailed hamsters (Tscherskia triton) shapes gut microbiota composition and metabolite profiles. Dominant males exhibit a “high‐vigilance, metabolically activated” phenotype, with elevated aggression and specific gut microbiota enriched in energy‐harvesting taxa and fecal queuine.

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.

Double Transposition and Physician-Modified Endografting for Complex Arch Aneurysm
Hybrid repair of complex aortic arch disease typically requires aortic debranching to create a proximal landing zone for completion arch endografting. Despite advances in endograft technology, physician-modified endografting may be required to customize ...
