Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Late thrombosis of a mitral bioprosthetic valve with associated massive left atrial thrombus
An 84-year-old man presented 5 years after bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement with three months of worsening dyspnea on exertion. A new mitral stenosis murmur was noted on physical examination, and an electrocardiogram revealed newly recognized ...

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...

Replacement of the Native Mitral Valve Due to Endocarditis Caused by Stenotrophomonas Maltophilia [PDF]
We report a case of a 59-year-old female patient with vegetative native mitral valve endocarditis caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (SM). She had hemodialysis-dependent chronic renal failure, but no immunosuppressive disease. Echocardiography showed

A unifying device–cardiovascular interface framework is presented to classify implantable cardiovascular technologies as intracardiovascular blood‐contacting systems or extracardiovascular tissue‐only and blood‐handling architectures. Cross‐class comparison across shared semiquantitative criteria, including blood‐contact burden, biomimicry ...
