Comparative performance of CHA2DS2VASc and anticoagulation and risk factors in atrial fibrillation risk scores for predicting mortality in patients with COVID-19

open access: yesInternational Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2021
Background: The AnTicoagulation and Risk factors in Atrial fibrillation (ATRIA) and CHA2DS2VASc risk scores used to detect the thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risk in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients has been shown recently to predict poor clinical ...

Bright fibrils in Ca II K [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Context: Except for the Ca II resonance lines, fibrils are ubiquitously present in most high-resolution observations of chromospheric lines. Aims: We show that fibrils are also a prevailing feature in Ca II K, provided the spatial-resolution is sufficiently high.

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

Monofilaments for artificial turf applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Lack of resilience and fibrillation are the major problems encountered in the applications of monofilaments. The aim of this study was therefore to develop a bending test to assess the resilience of a monofilament and to correlate this with the results ...

Cardioverting acute atrial fibrillation and the risk of thromboembolism: not all patients are created equal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Current guidelines support the well-established clinical practice that patients who present with atrial fibrillation (AF) of less than 48 hours duration should be considered for cardioversion, even in the absence of pre-existing anticoagulation. However,

Moisture‐Dependent Vibrational Dynamics and Phonon Transport in Nanocellulose Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Uptake of water in cellulose play an important role in modulating the structure and phonon transport. This study reports how moisture‐dependent structural modification relates to the vibrational dynamics and phonon transport and scattering of nanocellulose using inelastic neutron scattering and wide angle X‐ray scattering.

Age‐Dependent Predictive Value of Endothelial Dysfunction for Arrhythmia Recurrence Following Pulmonary Vein Isolation

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
Background The mechanisms of atrial fibrillation (AF) are highly divergent. The prevalence of AF increases significantly with age, and underling mechanisms might vary with age.

NACore Amyloid Formation in the Presence of Phospholipids

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Amyloids are implicated in many diseases, and disruption of lipid membrane structures is considered as one possible mechanism of pathology. In this paper we investigate interactions between an aggregating peptide and phospholipid membranes, focusing on ...

A Novel SOD1 Intermediate Oligomer, Role of Free Thiols and Disulfide Exchange

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Wild-type human SOD1 forms a highly conserved intra-molecular disulfide bond between C57-C146, and in its native state is greatly stabilized by binding one copper and one zinc atom per monomer rendering the protein dimeric.

Thromboprophylaxis in atrial fibrillation and association with cognitive decline: systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objective:Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is associated with dementia. If AF-related cognitive decline is driven by cerebral embolic events, thromboprophylaxis may impact on this.
