LEFT ATRIAL GEOMETRY IN AN OVINE ISCHEMIC MITRAL REGURGITATION MODEL: IMPLICATIONS FOR TRANSCATHETER MITRAL VALVE REPLACEMENT DEVICES WITH A LEFT ATRIAL ANCHORING MECHANISM

Abstract Mattress Overlays Background Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a challenging, but promising minimally invasive treatment option for patients with mitral valve disease.Depending on the anchoring mechanism, complications such as mitral leaflet or chordal disruption, aortic valve disruption or left ventricular outflow tract obs

With the approval of the vaccine in mainland China, concerns over its safety and efficacy emerged.Since the Chinese vaccine has been promoted by the Chinese government for months and got emergency approval from the World Health Organization.The Chinese vaccination program is yet to be identified from the perspective of local populations.The COVID-1

We have investigated the effects of metal decoration on the gas-sensing properties of a device with two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) flake channels and graphene electrodes.The 2D hybrid-structure device sensitively detected NO2 gas molecules (>1.2 ppm) as well as NH3 (>10 ppm).Metal nanoparticles (NPs) could tune the electroni

The investigation dealt with the stabilization of expansive soil with combinations of lime, steel slag and reinforced with two types of fibres, copper filaments and polypropylene fibres.The investigation began with the characterization of the soil for its geotechnical properties.The initial consumption of lime required for the modification of the s
