University of Freiburg – Research Assistant position
We are seeking a full-time or part time research assistant to support and manage researchprojects at the Department of Neurology. We study how the brain works and how it recoversfrom damage. Clinical and neuropsychological behavioural tests (eg: language, spatialprocessing, praxis, spatial perception, memory) are correlated with brain anatomy andfunction (eg: fMRI, rsfMRI, DTI, sMRT, PET, TMS) in group studies of patients (mainlystroke, Parkinson ’s disease and migraine). In a large scale project carefully selected strokepatients (first ever stroke, single ischemic lesion) are prospectively tested during acute stageand f...

To the lady in the floral dress
I sat hunched over in a coffee shop, staring at anatomy flashcards as they appeared and quickly disappeared on my computer screen. I was in the midst of my first semester of medical school, and I was feeling discouraged and overwhelmed. My classmates and I had just finished a notoriously difficult block of material (foundationsRead more …To the lady in the floral dress originally appeared inKevinMD.com.

3D Printing in Medicine And Healthcare – The Ultimate List In 2021
3D printing has demonstrated huge potential for the future of medicine in the previous years, and its development is unstoppable. Just look at the impressive list of 3D printed healthcare materials and medical equipment below! How does 3D printing in medicine work? 3D printing in medicine is part of the innovative process called additive manufacturing, which means producing three-dimensional solid objects from a digital file. How the technology works, we explained the technology in our article on bioprinting here. As technology evolves, researchers work on various solutions. For example, engineers from the University of B...

Aortic stenosis – TAVR (TAVI) vs SAVR
Discussion so far is based on ACC/AHA guidelines, 2020 [1]. ESC/EACTS guidelines for management of valvular heart disease were published in 2017 [2]. The guideline mentions that data on TAVI are limited for patients below 75 years and for low surgical risk patients. Hence SAVR was preferred in those patients. On this aspect, the more recent ACC/AHA guidelines incorporate more recent evidence. In ESC/EACTS guidelines, SAVR is preferred if STS/EuroSCORE II is less than 4% and TAVI if it is more than or equal to 4%. TAVI is preferred in those with severe comorbidity, previous cardiac surgery, frailty, and restricted mobility....

A 64 year old man with chest tightness
Submitted and written by Kaley El-Arab MDPeer reviewed by Pendell Meyers, Alex Bracey, Stephen Smith A 64-year-old male with past medical history of coronary artery disease with prior MI s/p stent to RCA (2008), hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes presented with acute onset of chest pain.  Around 15:00 while at work he developed left-sided chest tightness that lasted for a few hours, then eventually went away, but returned the same evening around 22:00 when it woke him from sleep. He reportedly tried to “walk it off” which relieved the pain transiently. When the pain returned it was more severe and assoc...

Cardiology MCQs
Ischemic preconditioning is mediated by: ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) Sodium channel Ikr, the rapid component of delayed rectifier potassium current L-type calcium channel Correct answer: 1. ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) Blockers of ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) like glibenclamide can prevent ischemic reconditioning. KATP channel opener nicorandil can mimic ischemic preconditioning and it is known as pharmacological preconditioning. Stimulation of adenosine receptors is known to simulate ischemic preconditioning.

Coronary venous circulation
Importance of knowing the coronary venous circulation has increased in recent years with use of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for heart failure. Left ventricular epicardial pacing in CRT is achieved by placing a lead in a coronary vein, usually a posterolateral tributary of the coronary sinus. Coronary venous circulation can be visualized by a coronary angiogram levophase. After filling the coronary arteries, the contrast drains into the coronary venous system, finally opacifying the coronary sinus, which drains into the right atrium. Here is a coronary angiogram levophase, with a line diagram beside it: Coronar...

3-D printing of heart : Moving from the labs to bed side
3D printing technology is growing at a rapid pace. Both cardiologists and cardiac surgeons are expected to benefit a lot.It helps us in understanding deformed anatomy in complex congenital heart disease as well as planning for synthetic cardiac implants.  Currently, the technology is limited only by the chemical material used to print the heart and its components. The American chemical society is working at it to create more realistic heart models. Once we master this,  biological printing with synthetic tissue equivalents is the ultimate aim.  Major Indications Planning cardiac reconstructive surgeries in ...
