God Knows Best

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Arabic phrase Allāhu a‘lam—“God knows best”—is used frequently in everyday Muslim speech and to conclude seemingly assertive statements or fatwas. At its heart lies the recognition that God is the All‐Knowing, whereas humans know next to nothing. Reflecting on this recognition, this essay discusses Sufi refusals of the ethnographic project

Live Birth Rates After Varicocele Embolization in Patients After Failed In Vitro Fertilization With Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives While in vitro fertilization with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF‐ICSI) bypasses abnormalities in sperm concentration, motility, and morphology, it still has a significant failure rate. We report our experience on the effect of varicocele embolization (VE) on couples with varicocele related primary male factor ...

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of

Agreement between cardiac cycle time intervals and myocardial velocities measured by automated analysis of color tissue Doppler cine loops and by manual tracing of spectral pulsed‐wave tissue Doppler waveforms of sheep fetal heart under normal and pathological conditions: An experimental study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Automated cTDI in sheep fetuses provided reproducible measurements of myocardial velocities and heart rate that align well with manual pulsed‐wave TDI. For cardiac cycle duration metrics, the two modalities are not interchangeable. These findings support that automated cTDI is well suited for longitudinal assessment under both physiological and ...

An Optimized Multi‐Stage Drainage Cannula Design for Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study utilized an extensive optimization involving n = 540 design of experiments to produce a superior drainage cannula design. Compared to the clinically used Maquet model, our optimized design demonstrated reduced blood stagnation volumes, increased cannula tip velocities, and higher upper body drainage, potentially minimizing risk of thrombosis

Experimental Extracorporeal Circulation System: A Pilot Study in Rats

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A miniature extracorporeal circulation (ECC) system was developed for reproducible rodent studies. This system incorporates an integrated heat exchanger and a silicone membrane oxygenator within a double‐lumen circuit, resulting in an ultralow priming volume of < 1.5 mL.
