To identify genes potentially implicated in atherogenesis, a cDNA library was constructed from human atherosclerotic aorta and differentially screened with 32P-labeled-cDNAs prepared normal aortas. Two clones exhibiting higher hybridization to the 32P-labeled cDNAs vessels were isolated identified be encoding L-ferritin H-ferritin, respectively. Northern blot analysis confirmed that expression of both ferritin notably rabbit aortas than their counterparts. A time-course study illustrated L-...
This study was focused on a series of in vitro tests the turbulent flow characteristics three bileaflet aortic valves: St. Jude Medical (SJM), CarboMedics (CM), and Edwards Tekna (modified Duromedics, DM). The fields valves were measured pulsatile model with laser-Doppler anemometer (LDA) at sinus area downstream valves. heart rate set 70 beats per minute, cardiac output maintained 5 liters pressure wave forms kept within physiological range. Cycle-resolved analysis applied to obtain...
This remarkable case report - by authors from Boston Childrens Hospital and funded Milas Miracle Foundation describes the development use of a patient-customised antisense oligonucleotide drug that was tailored specifically against unique DNA sequence mutation in 6-year old girl with Batten disease, degenerative neurological disease due to neuronal accumulation lipofuscin characterised intractable seizures. They first tested ex vivo, using cell lines patient, then showed systemic...
This study sought to find the risk factors for primary bacteremia, endovascular infection, and in-hospital death patients without acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who have nontyphoid salmonellosis. From September 1995 through 2001, 301 with salmonellosis were admitted our hospital; of these patients, 121 had 28 infection. Of 64 aged >50 years, 26 Overall, 90 (29.9%) immunodeficiency. Predictors bacteremia age; presence systemic lupus erythematosus; group B, C, or D Salmonella infection;...
Abstract: To improve endothelial cell adhesion and growth on the surface of polyethylene glycol modified polyurethane (PU‐PEG), adhesive peptide Gly‐Arg‐Gly‐Asp (GRGD) was photochemically grafted to surface. The GRGD‐N‐Succinimidyl‐6‐[4′‐azido‐2′‐nitrophenylamino]hexanoate (SANPAH) a PU‐PEG performed by adsorption subsequent ultraviolet irradiation. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) confirmed GRGD form PU‐PEG‐GRGD composition...
Objective: Liver cirrhosis is considered to be a contraindication heart transplantation. However, the clinical outcome of transplantation in patients with liver has not been reported. Here, we sought evaluate cirrhotic patients. Methods: Data were collected by retrospective chart review. Patients at time included. Results: Between 1987 and 2007, 12 underwent authors' hospital. Diagnosis was based on preoperative abdominal sonography five, autopsy laparotomy two Causes failure dilated...
