Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.

Removal of intra-atrial tumor thrombus of renal cell carcinoma: report of a case [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A case of left renal cell carcinoma with a tumor thrombus extending into the vena cava and the right atrium is reported. A 49-year-old female presented with a one month history of palpitation, dyspnea, and leg edema.

Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4 gene expression in canine heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are archetypal pattern recognition receptors of immediate importance for an efficacious innate immune response. TLRs exhibit marked differential tissue activity and their levels within a discrete cell type can be highly dynamic.

An immunohistochemical analysis of tissue thrombin expression in the human atria.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
ObjectiveThrombin, the final coagulation product of the coagulation cascade, has been demonstrated to have many physiological effects, including pro-fibrotic actions via protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1.

Extracellular Vesicles Modulation by an Adiponectin Receptor Agonist Provides Cardioprotection for Myocardial Ischemic Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

The inferior caval vein draining into the left atrial cavity : a rare case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The inferior vena cava (IVC) draining into the left atrium (LA) is exceedingly rare in the setting of the usual atrial arrangement (situs solitus).

A Nano‐Interception Strategy for Chronic Heart Failure: Prussian Blue Nanoparticles Disrupt Fibroblast‐Immune Communication via CCL2 Sequestration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A nano‐interception strategy disrupts pathogenic fibroblast–macrophage crosstalk in chronic heart failure. Scalable Prussian blue nanoparticles selectively sequester CCL2 via ultrahigh‐affinity binding, preventing CCR2+ macrophage recruitment and breaking a key fibro‐inflammatory circuit. This approach demonstrates robust efficacy in murine and porcine

Change of “Left atrium ejection force” after transcatheter “Atrial septal defect” closure using “AMPLATZER,” in pediatric patients

open access: yesResearch in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Background and Purpose: There has not been any study regarding atrial systolic function in transcatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) closure. The aim of this study was to survey left atrium ejection force in this procedure in the pediatric age group ...

Mitral annuloplasty with the interatrial groove-left atrial dome approach in a patient with Marfan syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022
Background The choice of mitral valve surgical approach has always been a difficult problem in patients with small left atrium. Case presentation We report a case of a patient with Marfan syndrome who underwent the David operation and mitral annuloplasty.

Chemically Doped Conductive Polymers for Wearable Health Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Among conductive polymers, poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), polyaniline (PANI), and polypyrrole (PPy) are the most studied and applied. Chemical doping significantly boosts intrinsic conductivity and mechanical robustness.
