Rational Use of Mechanical Circulatory Support as a Bridge to Pediatric and Congenital Heart Transplantation

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Introduction: Donor shortage and organ allocation is the main problem in pediatric heart transplant. Mechanical circulatory support is known to increase waiting list survival, but it is not routinely used in pediatric programs in Latin America. Methods:

Composition and Resulting Band Alignment at the TiO2/InP Heterointerface: A Fundamental Study Combining Photoemission Spectroscopy and Theory

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The chemical composition and band alignment are systematically investigated at the TiO2/InP heterointerface. Thin TiO2 films are deposited by ALD on atomically ordered, P‐terminated p‐InP(100). By combining UPS, XPS, and ab initio molecular dynamics, the atomistic structure and electronic alignment are revealed.

Living Without a Pulse: The Vascular Implications of Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Devices

open access: yesCirculation: Heart Failure, 2018
Pulsatility seems to have a teleological role because evolutionary hierarchy favors higher ordered animals with more complex, multichamber circulatory systems that generate higher pulse pressure compared with lower ordered animals.

Effect of off-pump coronary surgery with right ventricular assist device on organ function and inflammatory response: a randomized controlled trial.

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular assist devices (RVADs) have been proposed to improve exposure of the coronary arteries in off-pump surgery. In this study we investigated the impact of the A-Med RVAD on inflammatory response and organ function in patients ...

Flux‐Regulated Crystallization of Perovskites Using Machine Learning‐Predicted Solvent Evaporation Rates for X‐Ray Detectors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By integrating machine learning into flux‐regulated crystallization (FRC), accurate prediction of solvent evaporation rates in real time, improving crystallization control and reducing crystal growth variability by over threefold, is achieved. This enhances the reproducibility and quality of perovskite single crystals, leading to reproducible ...
