Right ventricular dysfunction after resuscitation predicts poor outcomes in cardiac arrest patients independent of left ventricular function. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Determination of clinical outcomes following resuscitation from cardiac arrest remains elusive in the immediate post-arrest period. Echocardiographic assessment shortly after resuscitation has largely focused on left ventricular (LV) function.

This study reveals how vorticity—a swirling flow pattern—enhances platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in high‐shear conditions. Using a custom microfluidic model, it is shows that vorticity promotes vWF–GPIbα interactions and calcium signaling, providing new insights into thrombosis mechanobiology and informing safer blood‐contacting medical ...

The tissue and functional benefits are demonstrated with local, sustained delivery of an anti‐inflammatory peptide, pituitary adenylate cyclase‐activating polypeptide (PACAP), for stroke treatment in a mouse model. Prolonged PACAP treatment modulated astrocyte and microglia toward pro‐reparative phenotypes, enhanced neuroprotection and preservation of ...

Multifunctional Biomedical Devices with Closed‐Loop Systems for Precision Therapy
This review explores two major types of closed‐loop therapeutic systems: self‐sustained and externally triggered. It highlights recent advances in stimuli‐responsive materials, integrated bioelectronics, and data‐driven control strategies, offering insight into emerging strategies for personalized, responsive drug delivery.

β Subunits Control the Effects of Human Kv4.3 Potassium Channel Phosphorylation
The transient outward K+ current, Ito, activates early in the cardiac myocyte action potential, to begin repolarization. Human Ito is generated primarily by two Kv4.3 potassium channel α subunit splice variants (Kv4.3L and Kv4.3S) that diverge only by a ...

Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Material transport in the left ventricle with aortic valve regurgitation
This experimental in vitro work investigates material transport properties in a model left ventricle in the case of aortic regurgitation, a valvular disease characterized by a leaking aortic valve and consequently double-jet filling within the elastic ...
