Failed Valve-In-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2012
In 2004, a 68-year-old man received aortocoronary bypass surgery and a 23-mm Hancock porcine bioprosthesis (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota). Six years later, in January 2011, cardiac re-evaluation was performed due to progressive dyspnea.

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Engineered Nanotopography to Modulate Growth and Signaling of Neuronal Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines the interaction between neurons and nanoscale topographies on engineered substrates. Neurons cultured on nanowires, nanopillars and nanoneedles exhibit enhanced neurite outgrowth, form more organized neuronal circuits, and display improved synaptic connectivity, compared to flat substrates.
