Cavopulmonary assist for the failing Fontan circulation: impact of ventricular function on mechanical support strategy [PDF]
Mechanical circulatory support--either ventricular assist device (VAD, left-sided systemic support) or cavopulmonary assist device (CPAD, right-sided support)--has been suggested as treatment for Fontan failure.

Metal–Organic Frameworks: Unlocking New Frontiers in Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), are composed of metal ions and bridging organic ligands, are recognized as an excellent platform for host‐gust chemistry. Its rich structural composition, modifiable sites, and multilevel pore distribution can provide delivery and release of signaling molecules, probes, and therapeutic drugs, which exhibit great medical

Occupational Therapy’s Role with Ventricular Assist Devices and the Promotion of Travel Protocols [PDF]
An option for individuals diagnosed with end-stage heart failure is to receive a ventricular assist device (VAD). In 2006, Shepherd and Wilding produced an article regarding occupational therapy’s role during the VAD process as they anticipated a growing

Minimally invasive implantation of continuous flow left ventricular assist devices: the evolution of surgical techniques in a single centre experience [PDF]
To evaluate the evolution of our surgical experience with the implantation of a continuous flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD), from the original full sternotomy approach to less invasive surgical strategies including mini-sternotomy and/or mini ...

Cardiomyocyte‐enriched USP20 regulates the K63‐linked ubiquitination of STAT3, and the cardiomyocyte‐specific USP20‐STAT3‐CARM1 axis exerts a protective role in cardiac hypertrophy. Targeting USP20 through cardiac‐specific gene therapy presents a promising strategy for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy.

Synergistic effect of shear and ADP on platelet growth on ZTA and Ti6Al4V surfaces [PDF]
Continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (VADs) have been an increasingly common, life-saving therapy for advanced heart-failure patients, but elevate the risk of thrombosis due to a combination of non-physiological hemodynamics and synthetic biomaterials.
