Experience with left ventricular assist device usage in the treatment of end-stage heart failure [PDF]

Кардіохірургія та інтервенційна кардіологія, 2017
Heart failure potentially developing in most of heart diseases is a progressive process associated with high morbidity and mortality. Almost 3/4 of patients die within five years after first hospitalization because of heart failure.

Case report: Facilitating right heart recovery after durable LVAD implantation through repair of atrioventricular valves and RVAD implantation using tunneled Dacron grafts

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Right ventricular assist device (RVAD) weaning is often an important goal for durable left ventricular assist device support. This may be facilitated by mitral and tricuspid repair as well as by minimizing the trauma of RVAD decannulation by using Dacron

The impact of Hnrnpl deficiency on transcriptional patterns of developing muscle cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We performed nanopore whole‐transcriptome sequencing comparing RNA from Hnrnpl‐knockdown versus control C2C12 myoblasts to investigate the contributions of Hnrnpl to muscle development. Our results indicate that Hnrnpl regulates the expression of genes involved with Notch signaling and skeletal muscle, particularly splicing patterns of specific muscle ...

Optimal haemodynamics during left ventricular assist device support are associated with reduced haemocompatibility‐related adverse events

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2019
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy improves the haemodynamics of advanced heart failure patients. However, it is unknown whether haemodynamic optimization improves haemocompatibility‐related adverse events (HRAEs).

Long‐Term Temporal Profile of Motor Recovery After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Limited data is available to describe the temporal profile of long‐term recovery over 1 year after the stroke in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods A registered multicentral cohort was conducted to consecutively include non‐herniated supratentorial ICH patients from November 2013 to January 2023 ...

Characteristics of Cerebral Palsy in the Midwestern US

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong motor disability worldwide. Yet, data is limited on how CP manifests in the US. Our objective was to characterize and determine factors affecting functional outcomes in a large population of young people with CP in the Midwestern US.
