A chronological history of heart valve prostheses to offer perspectives of their limitations

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Prosthetic heart valves (PHV) have been studied for around 70 years. They are the best alternative to save the life of patients with cardiac valve diseases. However, current PHVs may still cause significant disadvantages to patients.

Non‐Invasive Diagnosis of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy by Breath

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The use of sensor technologies for the diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath samples. By combining gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) and electronic nose (eNose) platforms, specific VOC patterns associated with HCM are detected and analyzed.

Sustainable Flame‐Retardant Poly Lactic Acid Biocomposites Reinforced with Polyphosphate‐Enriched Microalgae: Unlocking the Potential of Hyper‐Compensation

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study explores microalgae cultivation for wastewater treatment and enhancement of poly lactic acid (PLA)‐based biocomposites. It achieves up to 99.9% nutrient removal, increases biomass productivity by 322%, and demonstrates a triphasic luxury phosphorus uptake system. Incorporation into PLA improves fire‐retardant properties, suggesting potential

Quadruple Bioprosthetic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Severe Carcinoid Heart Disease

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
Carcinoid heart disease typically affects the tricuspid and pulmonary valves, causing severe regurgitation and/or stenosis. Valve surgery has been shown to reduce right heart failure and improve long-term prognosis in these patients.

GLS1‐Mediated Redundancy in Glutamate Accelerates Arterial Calcification via Activating NMDAR/Ca2+/β‐Catenin Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
GLS1 is a novel contributor to arterial calcification. GLS1‐catalyzed glutamate exerts the promoting effects on osteogenic reprogramming in arteries. NMDAR, a glutamate receptor, is also activated and overexpressed during arterial calcification.
