A PMUT Integrated Microfluidic System for Fluid Density Sensing [PDF]
We demonstrate the design, fabrication and use of a dual electrode PMUT (Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasound Transducer) integrated with a microfluidic channel as a fluid density sensor in both static and dynamic density-change conditions. The dual electrode configuration makes the PMUT resonator a self-contained resonant peak-shift sensor and the ...

Abstract Aims A cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approach to non‐invasively estimate left ventricular (LV) filling pressure was recently developed and shown to correlate with invasively measured pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). We examined the association between CMR‐estimated PCWP (CMR‐PCWP) and other imaging and biomarker measures of

Can morphological changes of erythrocytes be driven by hemoglobin? [PDF]
At 49 C erythrocytes undergo morphological changes due to an internal force, but the origin of the force that drives changes is not clear. Here we point out that our recent experiments on thermally induced force-release in hemoglobin can provide an explanation for the morphological changes of erythrocytes.

Among high‐risk patients with T2D, new oral loop diuretic intensification was frequent and portended adverse prognostic significance. Treatment with canagliflozin significantly reduced the need for loop diuretic intensification. ABSTRACT Aims The sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor canagliflozin reduces the risk of heart failure (HF ...

The Hemo One Autoanalyzer for Glycated Hemoglobin Assay [PDF]
Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is widely used as a clinical marker of long-term blood glucose concentration in patients with diabetes. The clinical laboratory plays a vital role in the diagnosis and management of diabetes. Many methods for the measurement of HbA1c have been developed based on different analytical principles, often causing discordant ...

Alcohol consumption and incident heart failure in men and women
Alcohol consumption and incident heart failure (HF) in men and women. Abstract Aims Regular heavy alcohol consumption may lead to the development of alcohol‐related cardiomyopathy and symptomatic heart failure (HF) later in life. However, the dose–response relationship between alcohol consumption and risk for incident HF, and whether these associations

FABP-2 and PPAR-γ Haplotype as Risk Factors for Dyslipidemia in a Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Population of Santa Rosa del Conlara, San Luis, Argentina [PDF]
Introduction: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a complex disorder caused by the interaction between genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Genetics plays an important role on lipid homeostasis. Many genes are involved in the lipid metabolism,
