FastNano Liquid: An Automated Platform for Small‐Angle X‐ray Scattering‐Based Materials Discovery

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present FastNano Liquid, an automated small‐ and wide‐angle X‐ray scattering platform for the combined synthesis and characterization of (nano)materials. The platform is coupled to varied reactor workflows for both in situ studies of reaction kinetics and ex situ screening of synthesis conditions to support machine learning‐guided exploration ...

Konno Ross procedure, coronary artery bypass graft and mitral valve replacement in a 12-year-old girl with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2014
Background: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation of the gene for the low density lipoprotein receptor. This mutation can lead to elevated plasma cholesterol levels and subsequently to premature coronary artery ...

The mechanism of opening of the aortic valve

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1979
The mechanism of opening of the aortic valve was investigated in dogs by attaching radiopaque markers to the commissures and the leaflets. Analysis of abnormal cardiac cycles demonstrated that, when the ventricular pressure first equalled the aortic pressure, the intercomissural distances increased 9 percent, and the valve opened with a stellate ...

Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Breast Cancer Modeling: Tumor Microenvironment, Metastasis, and Drug Screening

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional bioprinting transforms breast cancer modeling from simple constructs into spatially organized, multicellular, perfused, and patient‐derived platforms. This review shows how bioinks, cellular composition, architecture, and flow govern tumor behavior and drug response, while revealing why complexity alone is insufficient without ...

Gallstone ileus resulting in strong intestinal obstruction

São Paulo Medical Journal
Mechanic intestinal obstruction, caused by the passage of biliary calculus from vesicle to intestine, through fistulization, although not frequent, deserve study due to the morbi-mortality rates.

Mechanical mitral valve thrombosis in rheumatic valve disease [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2014
A lady in her late 30s was admitted with a 2-week history of shortness of breath and productive cough. She had been treated for presumed lower respiratory tract infection but had not clinically improved. Her medical history includes rheumatic fever in childhood and she had undergone bioprosthetic mitral replacement (Carpentier-Edwards) 15 years ago ...

Comprehensive In Vitro Profiling Demonstrates Successful Immune Evasion of Bioengineered Immune‐Shielded Heart Valves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Living donor heart valves offer superior durability for pediatric patients but trigger immune rejection. Lentiviral delivery of viral immune‐evasion genes US2 and Serpin b9 into donor valve cells and valve tissue suppresses HLA expression, reduces PBMC clustering and cytotoxic killing, and induces transcriptional immune‐tolerance programs, paving the ...
