Tetralogy of Fallot with rheumatic mitral stenosis: A case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2008 Introduction Rheumatic and congenital heart diseases account for the majority of hospital admissions for cardiac patients in India. Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common congenital heart disease with survival to adulthood.

Transport powered by bacterial turbulence [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 158101 (2014), 2014 We demonstrate that collective turbulent-like motion in a bacterial bath can power and steer directed transport of mesoscopic carriers through the suspension. In our experiments and simulations, a microwedge-like "bulldozer" draws energy from a bacterial bath of varied density. We obtain that a maximal transport speed is achieved in the turbulent state

Imaging the emergence of bacterial turbulence: phase diagram and transition kinetics [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We experimentally study the emergence of collective bacterial swimming, a phenomenon often referred to as bacterial turbulence. A phase diagram of the flow of 3D E. coli suspensions spanned by bacterial concentration, the swimming speed of bacteria and the number fraction of active swimmers is systematically mapped, which shows quantitative agreement ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Background:Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) is a Gram-negative coccobacillus recognized as a pathogen in periodontitis and infective endocarditis. By producing a toxin (leukotoxin A, LtxA) that triggers global hypercitrullination in neutrophils,

Rheology of bacterial suspensions under confinement [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 As a paradigmatic model of active fluids, bacterial suspensions show intriguing rheological responses drastically different from their counterpart colloidal suspensions. Although the flow of bulk bacterial suspensions has been extensively studied, the rheology of bacterial suspensions under confinement has not been experimentally explored.

Meta-Analysis of Transfer Learning for Segmentation of Brain Lesions [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 A major challenge in stroke research and stroke recovery predictions is the determination of a stroke lesion's extent and its impact on relevant brain systems. Manual segmentation of stroke lesions from 3D magnetic resonance (MR) imaging volumes, the current gold standard, is not only very time-consuming, but its accuracy highly depends on the operator'
