Accessible ecophysiological tools for seabird conservation
Abstract Seabirds are the most endangered avian taxa on Earth, with over a third of species globally threatened. To help slow their decline, conservation physiology seeks to determine how seabird responses to climatic and anthropogenic threats influence demographic processes, but it is not widely utilized in monitoring.

Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients may have cardiac remodeling and dysfunction from the early stage of disease. This study aimed to determine the association between cystatin C (CysC) and early cardiac functional or structural impairment in T2DM patients without renal dysfunction.

Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a shortcoming that can erode the clinical benefits of transcatheter valve replacement (TAVR) and therefore a readily applicable method (aortography) to quantitate PVL objectively and accurately in the interventional suite is ...

Background To prevent cardiac collapse and to protect cerebral function, hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass is established before resternotomy. However, ventricular fibrillation under hypothermia facilitates left ventricular distension, which causes ...

Role of circulating interleukin-17 level in progression of mitral regurgitation in pediatric patient with rheumatic heart disease [PDF]
Rheumatic heart disease (RHO) is a sequela of acute rheumatic fever (ARF) caused by the delayed immune response after group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus (GABHS) infection. It is the most frequent etiology of permanent heart valve damage in pediatrics, especially in the mitral valve.

Machine Learning for Automated Mitral Regurgitation Detection from Cardiac Imaging [PDF]
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a heart valve disease with potentially fatal consequences that can only be forestalled through timely diagnosis and treatment. Traditional diagnosis methods are expensive, labor-intensive and require clinical expertise, posing a barrier to screening for MR. To overcome this impediment, we propose a new semi-supervised model

Circulating Concentrations of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 in Dogs with Naturally Occurring Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]
Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1), which mediates most effects of growth hormone, has effects on cardiac mass and function, and plays an important role in the regulation of vascular tone. In humans, an inverse relationship between degree of heart failure (HF) and circulating IGF‐1 concentrations has been found in several studies.
