Regional gas exchange evaluation during ex vivo lung perfusion in a swine model of localized lung dysfunction

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) allows the evaluation of lungs that do not meet standard transplantation criteria. Current procedures do not permit the identification of regional functional deficits. We investigated the feasibility of assessing lobar gas exchange during EVLP in a swine model.

Arterial hypotension during percutaneous procedures in the left atrial: It is not always pericardial tamponade!

Heart Vessels and Transplantation, 2022
On the stage of left atrial percutaneous procedures a number of acute complications and their management have been described. In the current brief report, coronary air embolism, its acute manifestations, differential diagnosis and outcomes were presented

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

An Unusual Congenital Heart Disease: Giant Left Atrial Appendage

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2022
A 52-year-old female was admitted to our hospital in April 2021 with dyspnea. She was discharged from the hospital 3 weeks ago due to the diagnosis of pneumonia caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Active surveillance of drug safety in healthcare data: Sequential monitoring of bacterial and serious urinary tract infection risk in sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor users

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Active surveillance of adverse events using healthcare data is emerging as complementary to the monitoring of spontaneous reports and stand‐alone pharmacoepidemiologic studies. The risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) was listed as a special warning for sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) when marketed in Europe

Displacement of occluder after left atrial appendage closure: A case report

Clinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Atrial fibrillation is closely associated with thrombotic events. In non‐valvular atrial fibrillation, 90% of thrombi are formed by the left atrial appendage.

Morphometrical features of left atrial appendage in the atrial fibrillation patients subjected to left atrial appendage closure

Folia Morphologica, 2023
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the morphometrical features of left atrial appendage (LAA) in patients with atrial fibrillation, subjected to LAA percutaneous closure (LARIAT) for stroke prevention. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Computed tomography (CT)

Beyond wound sealing: A dual‐functional adhesive nanofiber membrane promoting coagulation and osteogenesis in extraction sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inspired by the suction mechanics of octopus suckers, a dual‐layer nanofiber membrane integrates antibacterial protection, strong wet adhesion, and osteogenic support, offering a bioinspired strategy for effective hemostasis and alveolar bone preservation.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Systematic review on left atrial appendage closure with the LAmbre device in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Percutaneous closure (LAAC) of the left atrial appendage (LAA) is an efficacious preventive procedure for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and considerable bleeding risk.
