 The circumflex coronary artery is located close to the mitral annulus. Consequently, it is not immune to iatrogenic damage during mitral valve procedures. Our objective was to visualize the circumflex artery from a surgeon’s point of view, emphasizing its proximity. Furthermore, comparing it to coronary angiograms might support preoperative p…[Read more]

tracking echocardiography allows for the identification of 3 phenotypically distinct, reproducible, and clinically meaningful RV strain-derived post-systolic patterns.

This study hypothesized that left ventricular (LV) enlargement in Barlow disease can be explained by accounting for the total volume load that consists of transvalvular mitral…[Read more]

In order to facilitate the passage of EC33 through the blood-brain barrier, the two molecules of EC33 were linked by a disulfide bridge to form a prodrug called RB150. RB150, later renamed as QGC001 or firibastat, was found to be effective in animal models and well-tolerated when used in healthy participants. Firibastat was found to be safe and…[Read more]

3 was obtained and that was 44% higher than the score of original images. These results were also supported by objective measures. The results demonstrated that the proposed method outperformed the other methods in terms of mean brightness preservation, edge preservation, structural similarity, and human perception-based image quality assessment.…[Read more]

2-3.8 × 1012 Jones. The doped GaAsSb NWs have the potential for further improvement, paving the path for high-performance near-infrared (NIR) photodetection applications.A wafer-scale fabrication method for isolated silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) using standard CMOS technology is presented. Reactive ion etching was performed on the device layer of…[Read more]

Different root exudations can modify the bioavailability of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). Among these exudations, the low molecular weight organic acids play an imperative role in this process. The study was conducted to analyze the effect of phenanthrene (PHE) stress on root exudation variations and changes in its chemical composition in…[Read more]
