Efficiently Generating Mixing by Combining Differing Small Amplitude Helical Geometries
Helical geometries have been used in recent years to form cardiovascular prostheses such as stents and shunts. The helical geometry has been found to induce swirling flow, promoting in-plane mixing.

Small Size Dual-band Bandpass Filters with Multiconductor Transmission Lines and Shunt Open Stubs [PDF]
A dual-band bandpass filter consisting of multiconductor transmission lines (MTL) and shunt stubs has been designed. The used topology, based on the interconnection of two identical MTL and a shunt open stub, has a frequency response that can be modelled

Management of tetralogy of Fallot with Blalock–Taussig shunt alone in a low-resource setting
The outcomes of management of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) in children with only BT shunts have not been widely reported. Therefore, we present a 29-year-old man with complaints of progressive easy fatigability and effort intolerance.

Shunt quantification in congenital heart disease based on two-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]
In this work we investigated how high frame rate speckle tracking based on plane wave imaging could be used to improve the quantification of peak velocities in shunt flows due to septal defects.

Disconnection of Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt after Mild Injury over the Catheter's Pathway: Two Cases
Hydrocephalus is present in 1 of every 1,000 newborns treated with ventriculoperitoneal shunts (VPSs) in the majority of cases. This procedure carries a high risk of complications.

A Distinct Scenario of a Patient with Parkinson’s Disease and Comorbid Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
In literature, patients with coexistence of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) and Parkinsons’s disease (PD) have been rarely reported. Herein, I illustrate the evaluation processes of a remarkable patient with PD and comorbid NPH from my experience ...
