Valvular heart disease: A perspective

Journal 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.

Engineering Aging: Approaches to Model and Deconstruct Biological Complexity

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The macro‐experiences of aging are the result of an accumulation of micro‐changes that occur over time. Abstract The disparity between the global increase in life expectancy and the steady decline in health outcomes with age has been a major driver for developing new ways to research aging.

Radical Retention and Functional Stability of Plasma‐Polymerized Nanoparticles for Long‐Term Biofunctionalization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Plasma polymerized nanoparticles (PPNs) offer a solvent‐free route to functional nanocarriers with long‐lived radicals. This study establishes design principles for long‐term storage of PPNs, demonstrating that dry‐phase storage retains radical content, covalent reactivity, and bioactivity over extended periods. These findings advance the translational

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

BMJ 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 ...

Mucosa‐Interfacing Capsule for In Situ Sensing the Elasticity of Biological Tissues

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A fundamental mechanism of palpating soft materials is reported to sense deep tissue elasticity in situ with minimal invasion using the interaction between the robot palpation unit and soft tissues. Both the robot locomotion and elasticity sensing functions are remotely controlled by external magnetic fields, while the sensing data are wirelessly ...

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

, 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.

Quantitative Assessment of Gut and Vascular Barriers in TTOP, a Cartridge‐Based Bicompartmental Culture Platform

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The modular, versatile, and standardized cartridge‐based culture module allows to replicate gut and vascular barriers. Its conventional handling requirements facilitate adoption by non‐technical users, while the design allows safe manipulation and retrieval of samples for permeability assays and endpoint analysis.
