Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement on a self-expandable nitinol frame due to degeneration of primary bioprosthetic valve cusps. Clinical case of a high-risk surgical female patient

open access: yesВестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2020
Introduction. We present the clinical observation of a 72-year-old female patient with high surgical risk and structural degeneration of a bioprosthetic aortic valve (AV) cusps in the form of stenosis, accompanied by severe dysfunction.

Intervertebral disc degeneration in dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Back pain is common in both dogs and humans, and is often associated with intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. The IVDs are essential structures of the spine and degeneration can ultimately result in diseases such as IVD herniation or spinal ...

Structural basis for complement factor H-linked age-related macular degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Nearly 50 million people worldwide suffer from age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which causes severe loss of central vision. A single-nucleotide polymorphism in the gene for the complement regulator factor H (FH), which causes a Tyr-to-His ...

Thrombus-Induced Prosthetic Valve Dysfunction Demonstrating Hypo-Attenuated Leaflet Thickening: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Hypo‐attenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) is an important and potentially underrecognized cause of late bioprosthetic valve dysfunction after surgical AVR. Multimodal imaging, including echocardiography and electrocardiogram‐gated computed tomography, is essential for diagnosis, and timely surgical or medical intervention can effectively ...

The Role of Multimodality Imaging in Left-Sided Prosthetic Valve Dysfunction

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Prosthetic valve (PV) dysfunction (PVD) is a complication of mechanical or biological PV. Etiologic mechanisms associated with PVD include fibrotic pannus ingrowth, thrombosis, structural valve degeneration, and endocarditis resulting in different grades

Harnessing Large‐Scale Multi‐Omics Data for Risk Prediction and Deep Phenotyping of Valvular Heart Diseases in the General Population

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Large‐scale UK Biobank analyses identify clinical and proteomic signatures for early prediction of valvular heart disease and its subtypes. Proteins add predictive value for VHD, AVS, and MVR, with outcome‐specific compact panels showing translational potential. Multi‐layer evidence highlights matrix remodeling, protease regulation, immune inflammation,

Multiscale Coupling From Mastication to Retronasal Aroma Perception: The PG‐DTCFN Model and Multiphysics Simulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using grilled lamb skewers as a model system, this work builds a multiscale coupling framework from oral processing to retronasal aroma perception, reveals dual‐kinetic release patterns and Electroencephalogram‐characterized central encoding features, and proposes an interpretable physics‐guided deep learning model validated by multiphysics simulation,

A Rigid–Foldable Kirigami‐Inspired Metamorphic Mechanism With Programmable Motion Modes and Self‐Locking

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Geometric constraint reconfiguration enables a rigid–foldable kirigami‐inspired mechanism to switch between twisting, directional translation, and self‐locking states. By encoding multifunctionality directly into its architecture, the mechanism achieves multimodal motion and passive locking without reassembly, providing a compact platform for adaptive ...
