Doppler ultrasound in the measurement of pulse wave velocity: agreement with the Complior method

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2011
Aortic stiffness is an independent predictor factor for cardiovascular risk. Different methods for determining pulse wave velocity (PWV) are used, among which the most common are mechanical methods such as SphygmoCor or Complior, which require specific ...

Farnesyltransferase Deficiency in Cardiomyocytes Initiates Senescence and Contributes to Cardiac Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid overload suppresses SREBF2‐mediated FNTB expression, leading to defective Lamin A maturation and nuclear envelope instability. This nuclear catastrophe triggers a pro‐fibrotic senescence program in cardiomyocytes. Notably, restoring nuclear integrity via AAV9‐based gene therapy effectively attenuates cardiac remodeling, identifying the ...

A color Doppler ultrasound-guided protocol for the precise placement of nerve catheters: an anatomical validation study in fresh and fixed cadavers

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology
Background Continuous analgesia via peripheral nerve catheters (PNCs) is highly effective but prone to tip malposition. Direct ultrasound-guided localization of the PNC tip remains challenging, and no universal method is currently established.

A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...
