German Experience with a Novel Balloon-Expandable Heart Valve Prosthesis for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation—Outcomes of the MYLAND (MYvaL germAN stuDy) Study

Journal of Clinical Medicine
Background: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the initial experience in Germany with the Meril Myval™ (MM) transcatheter heart valve (THV) system for the treatment of severe symptomatic aortic valve stenosis. The MM THV is a novel balloon-expandable valve with an expanded sizing matrix.

Validation of Aortic Blood Flow Simulations During Extracorporeal Circulation Using Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This is the first study assessing in vivo blood flow profiles during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) scenarios. Magnetic resonance imaging data served for the calibration of computational fluid dynamics algorithms, enabling accurate replication of the hemodynamic conditions.

Comparison of Intraoperative Doppler Flow Measurements and Algorithmic Flow Estimations in Patients Undergoing Durable Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Direct intraoperative HeartMate 3 LVAD flow measurements using an ultrasonic probe revealed consistently higher values by approximately 0.5 L/min compared to device‐estimated flows. This discrepancy remained stable across pump speed settings, highlighting the importance of distinguishing measured from estimated flow in HeartMate 3 patients.

Identification of Autologous Tissue Sources and Optimization of a Treatment Method for Intraoperative Manufacturing of Heart Valve Constructs

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
The use of autologous connective tissue, such as pericardium or peritoneum, combined with controlled tissue treatment, has the potential to result in a more durable heart valve prosthesis than current commercial prostheses. ABSTRACT Introduction Valvular heart disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Current biological and mechanical

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Detection of fiber structure and calcification in xenogeneic pericardium by OCT

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Aortic valve (AV) stenosis is the most treated heart valve disease and the only curative treatment is the surgical AV replacement or the transcatheter prosthesis implantation.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Multi-slice CT (MSCT) imaging in pretrans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) screening. How to perform and how to interpret

Hellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2018
Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease among elderly. Trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an established and effective alternative therapeutical procedure for inoperable and high-risk patients with ...
