Modeling Stroke Diagnosis with the Use of Intelligent Techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The purpose of this work is to test the efficiency of specific intelligent classification algorithms when dealing with the domain of stroke medical diagnosis. The dataset consists of patient records of the ”Acute Stroke Unit”, Alexandra Hospital, Athens,

Rationale and design of SCOPE trial: a prospective, multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial to evaluate the overall efficacy and safety of a short-term anticoagulation strategy versus conventional single antiplatelet therapy in patients with severe aortic stenosis without indications for anticoagulation or dual antiplatelet therapy post-transcatheter aortic valve replacement

open access: yesBMJ Open
Introduction While transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a well-established standard of care for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, the optimal antithrombotic strategy post-TAVR remains a subject of debate, particularly ...

Valvular heart disease: A perspective

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1983
Valve replacement has been one of the most important advances in the management of patients with valvular heart disease. The 10 and 15 year survival rate after isolated aortic and mitral valve replacement with the Starr-Edwards valve is 56 and 44%, respectively.

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in atrial fibrillation accompanying mitral stenosis: the concept for a trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Patients at thromboembolic risk with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) can now be managed either with a vitamin K antagonist (VKA) or with a fixed dose of a non-VKA oral anticoagulant (NOAC), while patients with valvular AF have been restricted to ...

One‐Step Covalent Biofunctionalization of Tubular Constructs Enabled by Surface‐Embedded Radicals

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Uniform covalent biofunctionalization of tubular constructs is achieved in one step using surface‐embedded radicals generated by a novel plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) technology. This scalable, solvent‐free technology advances bioengineered tubes for tissue engineering and implant applications.

Non-valvular atrial fibrillation and stroke : implications for management [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation is more prevalent with increasing age. It is associated with a six-fold excess risk of stroke; and a cumulative lifetime stroke risk of 35%. 15% of ischaemic strokes are directly attributable to it.

3D‐Printed Unibody Microfluidic Devices for Organ‐on‐Chip Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A practical approach is demonstrated to 3D printing unibody microfluidic Organ‐on‐Chip (OoC) devices using commercial resins and desktop DLP printers. The demonstrated functional devices support 2D monolayers, 3D spheroids, and barrier tissues. With optimised design and post‐processing techniques, leak‐free, biocompatible microchannels and membranes ...
