This in vitro comparative study demonstrated that the HeartMate 3 pump has a superior overall hemocompatibility profile to the HeartMate 2 pump, underscoring the advantages of the maglev centrifugal pump design compared to the axial pump design. ABSTRACT Background Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have been utilized to maintain the circulatory ...

Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity and Extracellular Water Expansion in Hemodialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Background Pulse wave velocity (PWV), a measurement of arterial stiffness, is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients. Debate continues as to whether PWV is increased by volume overload. As such, we reviewed the association between volume overload and PWV.

Simultaneous Ex Situ Normothermic Perfusion of Paired Kidneys in Pigs
This pig model of simultaneous perfusion of paired kidneys in normothermia suggests that intra‐individual variation is relatively low, enabling one kidney to be employed as a reliable comparator of the other kidney for assessing treatments before kidney transplantation.

Invasive and non‐invasive functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a well‐established method to partially restore function after paralysis and deliver sensory feedback after amputation. This work summarizes the current state‐of‐the‐art of FES for restoring function, supporting rehabilitation therapy, and assistive devices.

The IC direction in HM3 was influenced by the mitral valve height from the LV apex, distance between the LV apex and chest wall, and thoracic depth from the LV apex. Moreover, the IC direction in HM3 had little influence on the flow, PAWP and the survival rate of patients.
