Dead time, hard time, and narrative redemption: Delimiting the life proper
Abstract Is every detail of your life a candidate for the meaningful, valuable, or worthwhile? If not, which do you exclude? Thaddeus Metz nominates “dead time”: the nail‐clipping, line‐waiting, traffic‐jam enduring, generally commonplace moments of our life. Dead time, while prevalent, is not remarkable. Metz recommends that we set at least some of it

Computational model of haemodynamics during atrial fibrillation
Abstract figure legend We developed a simplified computational model that replicates patient‐specific haemodynamics during both normal sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF). Our computational model comprises: (1) an electrical subsystem that generates unco‐ordinated atrial and irregular ventricular activation times characteristic of AF and (2) a ...
