Ventricular interdependent phenotype of mixed Cpc‐pulmonary hypertension and HFpEF with normal left atrium: Impact on CPET metrics and clinical outcomes

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 14, Issue 4, October 2024.
Abstract Among 45 CpcPH/heart failure with preserved ejection fraction participants, 11 with normal left atrium (compared to 34 with abnormal left atrium, p < 0.05 for all) had low left ventricle (LV) transmural pressure (2.9 ± 2.4 vs. 6.2 ± 2.9 mmHg), and increased right ventricle (RV):LV ratio (2.41 ± 1.09 vs. 1.46 ± 0.66) and interventricular septal

Implanted Carbon Nanotubes Harvest Electrical Energy from Heartbeat for Medical Implants

Advanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 32, August 8, 2024.
This novel “Twistron energy cell harvester” (TECH), consisting of coiled carbon nanotube yarn, produces electrical energy from mechanical contraction. The TECH device is applied to an artificial heartbeat system and in a second step to a porcine heart and is able continuously generated electrical energy from cardiac contraction.
