Novel Electroactive Therapeutic Platforms for Cardiac Arrhythmia Management
Electroactive platforms offer promising applications in cardiac arrhythmia. Based on their energy sources and mechanisms, electroactive platforms are categorized into i) direct electrical stimulation, ii) self‐powered electroactive systems, iii) physical stimuli‐mediated electroactive systems, and iv) conductive systems, and their applications in ...

TNNI3 encoding cTnI, the inhibitory subunit of the troponin complex, is the main target for mutations leading to restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Here we investigate two cTnI-R170G/W amino acid replacements, identified in infantile RCM patients, which ...

Calpain‐2‐Mediated Endothelial Focal Adhesion Disruption in Thoracic Aortic Dissection
The elevated expression of Capn2 in endothelial cells activates focal adhesion signaling by cleaving Talin1 and assembling Itgav, which compromises the integrity of the endothelial barrier and induces vascular inflammation. Inhibition of calpain through both pharmacological and transgenic approaches has effectively suppressed the onset and progression ...

This study indicates an association of abnormal HIF‐2α expression in paraspinal myoblasts and a disproportionate slow twitch muscle fiber content in the convexity of the curvature in a sub‐set of AIS subjects, suggesting HIF‐2α dysregulation as a possible risk factor for AIS. The role of HIF‐2α in paraspinal muscle function during spinal growth and its

Relating CAT(0) cubical complexes and flag simplicial complexes [PDF]
Given a finite CAT(0) cubical complex, we define a flag simplicial complex associated to it, called the crossing complex. We show that the crossing complex holds much of the combinatorial information of the original cubical complex: for example, hyperplanes in the cubical complex correspond to vertex links in the crossing complex, and the crossing ...

A One Health Approach to Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited cardiac disease in humans and results in significant morbidity and mortality. Research over the past 25 years has contributed enormous insight into this inherited disease particularly in the ...

It is known that biomaterial properties (e.g., shape, chemistry) direct how the body reacts to implanted materials. However, what features cause specific responses is not well known. High‐throughput screening can identify instructive properties, but manual feature segmentation in large brightfield image datasets limits discovery.

Abstract Introduction Coronavirus Disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) affects multiple organ systems in the acute phase and also has long‐term sequelae. Research on the long‐term impacts of COVID‐19 is limited. The Post COVID‐19 Interdisciplinary Clinical Care Network (PC‐ICCN), conceived in July 2020, is a provincially funded resource that is modelled as a ...

Intravenous sodium nitrite in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a randomized controlled trial (NIAMI). [PDF]
AIM: Despite prompt revascularization of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), substantial myocardial injury may occur, in part a consequence of ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). There has been considerable interest in therapies that may reduce IRI.

The utility of molecularly imprinted polymers for mass spectrometric protein and proteomics analysis
Abstract Selective and efficient sample clean‐up is important in mass spectrometric protein‐ and proteomics analyses from biological matrices. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), polymers prepared to have tailor‐made cavities for capture of target analytes may by such represent an interesting alternative for selective clean‐up.
