Characterization of Enhanced UHMWPE‐Hap Composites Manufactured by Hot Pressing
Illustration of the production and examination of prepared composite samples. ABSTRACT In the present study, a hip joint cup/liner material has been developed using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) matrix material which is reinforced by hydroxyapatite (HAp) particles with the 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 wt.% using mechanical activation followed ...

Transcatheter vs surgical aortic valve replacement for bicuspid aortic valve disease
Abstract Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an acceptable and often preferred alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, the mid‐ and long‐term efficacy of TAVR in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) remains unclear.

The future of transcatheter mitral valve interventions: competitive or complementary role of repair vs. replacement? [PDF]
Transcatheter mitral interventions has been developed to address an unmet clinical need and may be an alternative therapeutic option to surgery with the intent to provide symptomatic and prognostic benefit.

End stage cardiomyopathy and secondary mitral insufficiency: surgical alternative with prostesis implant and left ventricular remodelling [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To present a new surgical approach that consists of the implantation of a mitral prosthesis smaller than the annulus with traction of the papillary muscles to reduce the sphericalness of the left ventricle.

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.
