STAGING CARDIAC DAMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH AORTIC STENOSIS IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING TRANSCATHETER AORTIC VALVE IMPLANTATION

Staging cardiac damage associated with aortic stenosis in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation

Background: A new staging classification of aortic stenosis (AS) characterizing the extent of cardiac damage was established and validated in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).The present study was aimed to refine the staging system by integrating a quantitative evaluation of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction defin

Hidradenitis suppurativa: Inside and out

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic, disabling, suppurative disease characterized by deep tender subcutaneous nodules; complicated by fibrosis and extensive sinuses affecting primarily the apocrine gland bearing areas.It affects all races in early 20s with greater prevalence seen in women (3 to 5:1).The estimated disease prevalence is 1 - 4 %.The

Stimulating endogenous cardiac regeneration

The healthy adult heart has a low turnover of cardiac myocytes.The renewal capacity, however, is augmented after cardiac injury.Participants in cardiac regeneration include cardiac myocytes themselves, cardiac progenitor cells, and peripheral stem cells, particularly from the bone marrow compartment.Cardiac progenitor cells and bone marrow stem cel

Wormholes practicable in a cosmological background

For a Morris-Thorne wormhole in a cosmological background we analize the embedding surfaces and deduce an expression for the proper radial distance taking a conformal factor Ω = 1.Further, given PRO MG 12 MIXED BERRY the existence of an exotic material (negative energy density), the conditions to have a Related Parts traversable wormhole are
