Comparison of creatinine and cystatin C estimation of glomerular filtration rate in the Fontan circulation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease, 2021
Background: The Fontan circulation is associated with low skeletal muscle mass, which affects the accuracy of creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate estimates (eGFR/GFR). Cystatin C, another filtration marker, is less impacted by muscle mass.

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

Rapid in vitro evaluation of hemodynamic performances of customized handmade trileaflet‐valved conduits using Duffing–Holmes‐based self‐synchronization dynamic errors

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2021
Valvular heart diseases or chronic valvular dysfunctions are widely treated by percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) in cases requiring prosthetic pulmonary valve implantation and replacement.

Prevention of the infective endocarditis during the dental procedures [PDF]

open access: yesStomatološki glasnik Srbije, 2005
Endocarditis is endovascular infective disease of intracardiac structures, which are in contact with blood. The most common cause is Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus viridans, which inhabit oral cavity.

Handmade Trileaflet Valve Design and Validation for Pulmonary Valved Conduit Reconstruction Using Taguchi Method and Cascade Correlation Machine Learning Model

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Pulmonary valve diseases in children and adults include different degrees of stenosis, regurgitation, or congenital defects. Valve repair or replacement surgery is used to treat valvular dysfunction and to improve regurgitations flow for pulmonary valve ...

Infektif Endokarditis Pada Penyakit Jantung Tiroid

open access: yesJurnal Kesehatan Andalas, 2020
Infective endocarditis is an endocardial surface infection of the heart including heart valves that can be fatal. Occurs because there is damage to the surface of the endocardium and the entry of bacteria into the circulation.

Dynamics of transcatheter heart valves with an in vitro experiment incorporating particle image velocimetry

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
The malfunctioning heart valve will compromise the cardiovascular circulation of the human body. Given that artificial valves can be used to replace a disabled one, a feasible in vitro evaluation system is important before any possible implantation.
