Modeling partitioning of Min proteins between daughter cells after septation in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Ongoing sub-cellular oscillation of Min proteins is required to block minicelling in E. coli. Experimentally, Min oscillations are seen in newly divided cells and no minicells are produced. In model Min systems many daughter cells do not oscillate following septation because of unequal partitioning of Min proteins between the daughter cells.

3D-0D closed-loop model for the simulation of cardiac biventricular electromechanics [PDF]
Two crucial factors for accurate numerical simulations of cardiac electromechanics, which are also essential to reproduce the synchronous activity of the heart, are: i) accounting for the interaction between the heart and the circulatory system that determines pressures and volumes loads in the heart chambers; ii) reconstructing the muscular fiber ...

Bimanual examination for septal myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Left ventricular septal myectomy is the therapeutic 'gold standard' for patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy whose symptoms are refractory to medical therapy. We describe our initial clinical experience with a new surgical technique for septal myectomy utilizing the 'bimanual examination' in order to more reliably complete extended ...

Surgical septal myectomy is the preferred treatment option for patients with medically intractable obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Extended transaortic septal myectomy is a widely performed surgical procedure for patients with subaortic ...

Free-breathing 3D Cardiac T1 Mapping with Transmit B1 Correction at 3T [PDF]
Purpose: To develop a cardiac T1 mapping method for free-breathing 3D T1 mapping of the whole heart at 3T with transmit B1 (B1+) correction Methods: A free-breathing, ECG-gated inversion recovery sequence with spoiled gradient-echo readout was developed and optimized for cardiac T1 mapping at 3T.

Atrial Septal Defect Detection in Children Based on Ultrasound Video Using Multiple Instances Learning [PDF]
Purpose: Congenital heart defect (CHD) is the most common birth defect. Thoracic echocardiography (TTE) can provide sufficient cardiac structure information, evaluate hemodynamics and cardiac function, and is an effective method for atrial septal defect (ASD) examination. This paper aims to study a deep learning method based on cardiac ultrasound video

7. Septal myectomy for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy in the young adults and children
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is one of the leading causes for heart failure in the young; few studies were published the results of surgical therapy in this age category.

Background Systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve associated with acute type A aortic dissection is rare in daily clinical practice. The prevention of systolic anterior motion is important, because once it occurs, the hemodynamics may become ...

Background: Septal reduction therapy via septal myectomy or a modified Konno procedure is the mainstay of therapy for drug-refractory obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), although outcomes data on septal myectomy in pediatric patients are ...

BackgroundThe thoracoscopic trans-mitral approach can not only facilitate exposure of the ventricular septum, mitral valve, and subvalvular apparatus, it also enables the surgeons to perform concomitant mitral valve intervention.
