Early postoperative interventional ASD-closure for severe atrial right to left shunt in a neonate with common arterial trunk [PDF]
Although closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD II) with an occluding device in the first year of life is not a routine procedure, it is a feasible treatment, even in neonates.

Jet collisions and vortex reversal in the human left ventricle [PDF]
Unnatural dynamics of the notorious vortex in the left ventricle is often associated with cardiac disease. Understanding how different cardiac diseases alter the flow physics in the left ventricle may therefore provide a powerful tool for disease detection. In this work, the fluid dynamics in the left ventricle subject to different severities of aortic

Elevated Embryonic Temperature Has Persistent Adverse Effects on Zebrafish Swimming Capacity
In recent years, global warming of anthropogenic origin and its impacts on biodiversity have increasingly gained public awareness. Here, we demonstrate that embryonic temperature can have persistent and crucial effects on zebrafish swimming capacity and ...

Survival in Patients with Post-myocardial Infarction Ventricular Septal Rupture: A Retrospective Observational Study [PDF]
Introduction: Post-myocardial infarction ventricular septal rupture (post-MI-VSR) is a dreaded complication with high mortality. There is a varied survival pattern among patients who have undergone surgical repair.

A parallel interaction potential approach coupled with the immersed boundary method for fully resolved simulations of deformable interfaces and membranes [PDF]
In this paper we show and discuss the use of a versatile interaction potential approach coupled with an immersed boundary method to simulate a variety of flows involving deformable bodies.

Wall stress and patterns of hypertrophy in the human left ventricle.
It is generally recognized that chronic left ventricular (LV) pressure overload results primarily in wall thickening and concentric hypertrophy, while chronic LV volume overload is characterized by chamber enlargement and an eccentric pattern of ...
