Experimental investigation of the flow downstream of a dysfunctional bileaflet mechanical aortic valve [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Mechanical heart valve replacement is the preferred alternative in younger patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease. However, thrombus and pannus formations are common complications associated with bileaflet mechanical heart valves. This leads to risks of valve leaflet dysfunction, a life threatening event.

Methylglyoxal induces cardiac dysfunction through mechanisms involving altered intracellular calcium handling in the rat heart [PDF]
Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2024, 394, pp.110949Methylglyoxal (MGO) is an endogenous, highly reactive dicarbonyl metabolite generated under hyperglycaemic conditions. MGO plays a role in developing pathophysiological conditions, including diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, the mechanisms involved and the molecular targets of MGO in the heart have not been elucidated.

Prediction of Turbulent Shear Stresses through Dysfunctional Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valves using Computational Fluid Dynamics [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 There are more than 300,000 heart valves implanted annually worldwide with about 50% of them being mechanical valves. The heart valve replacement is often a common treatment for severe valvular disease. However, valves may dysfunction leading to adverse hemodynamic conditions.
