Artificial Organs, EarlyView.This study aims to evaluate the potential of a multistage pump design to enhance hemocompatibility in left ventricular assist devices. We found that the two‐stage concept offers favorable hemolysis measures compared to single‐stage designs, as the reduction in peak shear stresses outweighs the disadvantage associated with prolonged residence time ...

Unsteady fluid flow around certain bluff bodies. [PDF]
, 1986 It is shown in this thesis that fluid dynamic forces on unsteadily moving bluff bodies depend on the history of motion as much as on the velocity and acceleration of motion. An empirical relationship between the motion of the body and the resulting force

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.Blade shapes (leading‐edge geometry and thickness) in rotodynamic blood pumps were systematically evaluated. Thinner blades improve pump efficiency by reducing blockage effects, while neither blade thickness nor leading‐edge geometry shows clear hemocompatibility benefits. Overall, blade shape has a limited impact on hemocompatibility, indicating it is

Pufferfish exposure and presumed tetrodotoxicosis in Australian dogs: 372 cases (2007–2018)
Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Introduction Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a neurotoxin found in pufferfish that results in the blockade of excitatory conduction and clinical signs including gastrointestinal upset and paralysis. The objectives of this study were to describe the epidemiology of pufferfish exposure and presumed tetrodotoxicosis in dogs, and to determine associations with the ...

Non‐Alzheimer Aβ deposits in the human CNS: Implications with hypoxia and related conditions
Brain Pathology, EarlyView.An Aβ deposit in a non‐Alzheimer's brain from an individual who experienced hypoxia/energy failure. Abstract We recently reported the deposition of Aβ in the frontal cortex of individuals who died of acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), or who did not have COVID‐19 but had respiratory distress, or infants with severe cardiac malformations.

Simulation of unsteady fluid forces on a single rod downstream of mixing grid cell
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2018 Abstract The CALIFS study is part of a program that will combine hydraulic tests on 5 × 5 mock up of a fuel rod bundle and CFD simulations to evaluate the fluctuating fluid forces exerted at high Reynolds number in PWR fuel rod bundles. In this study, we consider a first intermediate geometry of the calibration bench, implementing one single rod and ...

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a leading cause of vision loss among individuals with diabetes. While anti‐VEGF therapy is a widely used and effective treatment, limited research has explored participants' lived experiences throughout the treatment process.

Economica, EarlyView.Abstract I argue that economists' distinction between ‘pure’ and ‘applied’ economic theory is often based on papers' stylistic markers rather than their methodology or scope. I illustrate this point with a model of price competition for boundedly rational consumers, due to Piccione and Spiegler. I first present its original, ‘pure style’ version.

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.Proactive Outreach: Closing the Fall Prevention Follow‐Up Gap. A quality improvement initiative at Cedars‐Sinai Health System evaluated follow‐up rates among adults aged ≥ 65 who screened positive for fall risk during Medicare Annual Wellness Visits. Following implementation of a proactive outreach package, including an EHR‐embedded SmartSet and direct
