ABSTRACT Background Papillary muscle infarction (PMI) has been linked to significantly increased mortality and is associated with ventricular arrhythmias and mitral regurgitation. Reference bright‐blood late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging provides poor scar‐to‐blood contrast, making PMI visualization challenging. Black‐blood LGE imaging overcomes

Acanthamoeba castellanii Can Facilitate Plasmid Transfer Between Environmental Pseudomonas spp
ABSTRACT The conditions in which antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes are transferred in natural environments are poorly understood. Acanthamoeba castellanii (a cosmopolitan environmental amoeba) feeds on bacteria by phagocytosis, which places the consumed bacteria closely together in a food vacuole (phagosome) of the amoeba.

Enhancing performance of detection dog field surveys through experimental transects
We evaluated performance parameters for a scat detection dog through assessment transects and compared these results with field survey data from the same dog‐team over a 4‐year period. From this, we derived valuable insights into the suitability of assessment transects for dog evaluation and how they can inform field performance.

Abstract Purpose To address a gap in translational research by developing a preclinical sheep model of medial meniscus anterior root (MAR) repair in vivo and to compare probabilities of potential pitfalls and difficulties with humans. Methods Preoperative planning and surgical procedures applied to patients were adapted to adult sheep.
