A coupled mitral valve -- left ventricle model with fluid-structure interaction

, 2017
Understanding the interaction between the valves and walls of the heart is important in assessing and subsequently treating heart dysfunction. With advancements in cardiac imaging, nonlinear mechanics and computational techniques, it is now possible to ...

Characterization of Clinical Phenotype to Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Concentrations in Alexander Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma in Alexander disease (AxD) and whether GFAP levels are predictive of disease phenotypes. Methods CSF and plasma were collected (longitudinally when available) from AxD participants and non‐AxD controls.

Learning the dynamics and time-recursive boundary detection of deformable objects [PDF]

, 2008
We propose a principled framework for recursively segmenting deformable objects across a sequence of frames. We demonstrate the usefulness of this method on left ventricular segmentation across a cardiac cycle.

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Antenatal and postnatal sonographic imaging findings of a single ventricle presenting as double outlet right ventricle with rudimentary left ventricle and single atrium

Russian Open Medical Journal, 2015
Congenital heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Single ventricle is a rare finding and usually of left ventricular morphology. We present here interesting antenatal and postnatal echocardiographic findings of a baby having a rare ...

Hypertrabeculated left ventricle in mitochondriopathy [PDF]

Heart, 1998
1Abnormal left ventricular trabeculations in mitochondrial myopathy have not been reported before. A 68 year old man with a history of chronic congestive heart failure and hypertension, had recurrent raised creatine kinase (CK) concentrations (up to 150 U/l; normal 70 U/l) with normal CKMB isoenzyme. Pulmonary rales were heard on clinical cardiological

Segmentation of the evolving left ventricle by learning the dynamics [PDF]

, 2008
We propose a method for recursive segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) across a temporal sequence of magnetic resonance (MR) images. The approach involves a technique for learning the LV boundary dynamics together with a particle-based inference ...

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Impact of left ventricular rehabilitation on surgical outcomes in patients with borderline left heart hypoplasiaCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open
Objective: The clinical significance of left ventricular rehabilitation for borderline left ventricular hypoplasia is controversial. This study aimed to review the surgical results of patients with borderline left ventricular hypoplasia and to evaluate ...
