Multi-epoch Sub-arcsecond [Fe II] Spectroimaging of the DG Tau Outflows with NIFS. II. On the Nature of the Bipolar Outflow Asymmetry [PDF]
The origin of bipolar outflow asymmetry in young stellar objects (YSOs) remains poorly understood. It may be due to an intrinsically asymmetric outflow launch mechanism, or it may be caused by the effects of the ambient medium surrounding the YSO. Answering this question is an important step in understanding outflow launching.

Alcohol Ablation of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction
A 28-year-old woman with valvular and infundibular pulmonary narrowing (peak Doppler gradients of 120 mm Hg) had presented to us in the last trimester of pregnancy. She had an uneventful delivery, and subsequently, she underwent elective pulmonary valve balloon dilation ([Figs.

Knowledge Transfer for Few-shot Segmentation of Novel White Matter Tracts [PDF]
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved stateof-the-art performance for white matter (WM) tract segmentation based on diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI). These CNNs require a large number of manual delineations of the WM tracts of interest for training, which are generally labor-intensive and costly. The expensive manual delineation

Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Spontaneous Large Animal Model of Human HCM. [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common disease in pet cats, affecting 10-15% of the pet cat population. The similarity to human HCM, the rapid progression of disease, and the defined and readily determined endpoints of feline HCM make it an ...

Dynamic simulation of aortic valve stenosis using a lumped parameter cardiovascular system model with flow regime dependent valve pressure loss characteristics [PDF]
Valvular heart diseases are growing concern in impoverished parts of the world, such as Southern-Africa, claiming more than 31 % of total deaths related to cardiovascular diseases. The ability to model the effects of regurgitant and obstructive lesions on the valve body can assist clinicians in preparing personalised treatments.

Echocardiographic predictors of the need for infundibular wedge resection in infants with aortic arch obstruction, ventricular septal defect and subaortic stenosis [PDF]
Infants with aortic arch obstruction and outlet ventricular septal defect can have posterior displacement of the infundibular septum into the left ventricular outflow tract causing varying degrees of subaortic stenosis.1-3 Because of the large ...

An unusual cause of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction
A 7-day-old boy born from an uneventful pregnancy presented with cyanosis and desaturation after a normal postnatal adaptation. Initial echocardiography showed a right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction with duct-dependent circulation. PGE1 infusion and invasive ventilation were initiated before the patient was referred to our institution ...
