Zebrafish and CRISPR—A synergistic approach to decipher and cure human diseases

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Zebrafish, with high genetic homology to humans, serves as a powerful vertebrate model for disease modeling and drug discovery. Integration of CRISPR/Cas9 technology enables precise genome editing, facilitating the development of translational models for human diseases.

Wireless blood pressure sensor implantation in sheep: A detailed technique

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Twelve adult sheep underwent wireless blood pressure sensor implantation. The procedure lasted an average of 36 min, with mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures of 93 ± 6 and 65 ± 5 mmHg, respectively. This rapid, minimally invasive protocol is a powerful platform for cardiovascular device development.

Gestational lipid profile as an early marker of metabolic syndrome in later life: a population-based prospective cohort study

BMC Medicine, 2020
Background In pregnancy lipid levels increase with gestation resembling an atherogenic lipid profile. Currently it is unclear whether gestational lipid levels are associated with an adverse cardiovascular risk profile later in life. The aim of this study

Pregnancy-Related Cardiovascular Complications: Case Presentation and Review of Literature

The Heart Surgery Forum, 2016
Background: Cardiovascular complications that can cause severe catastrophic outcomes for both the mother and the fetus are rarely seen during pregnancy. Time to diagnosis is often delayed by a low degree of suspicion and atypical presentation. We report surgical strategies in three pregnant women with cardiovascular complications.
