Advancements in left ventricular assist devices to prevent pump thrombosis and blood coagulopathy
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD)‐related blood coagulopathy: Pump thrombosis is one of the most severe adverse events caused by LVADs. The contact of blood with artificial materials of LVAD pumps and cannulas triggers the coagulation cascade. Abstract Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, such as left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are

A Review of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Disease [PDF]
Abstract Aortic diseases may be diagnosed after a long period of subclinical development or they may have an acute presentation. Acute aortic syndrome is often the first sign of the disease, which needs rapid diagnosis and decision making to reduce the extremely poor prognosis. Aortic dilatation is a well-recognised risk factor for acute

Absence of cardiovascular manifestations in a haploinsufficient TGFBR1 mouse model [PDF]
Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is an autosomal dominant arterial aneurysm disease belonging to the spectrum of transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta)-associated vasculopathies. In its most typical form it is characterized by the presence of hypertelorism,

Patient-specific Finite Element Modeling of Aneurysmal dilatation after chronic type B aortic dissection [PDF]
Progressive aneurysmal dilatation is a well-recognized complication in patients with chronic type B aortic dissection (cTBAD), which may lead to a delayed rupture and create a life-threatening condition. However, our understanding of such aortic expansion in cTBAD remains weak.
