When does life end? New organ donation strategy fuels debate
On a chilly holiday Monday in January 2020, a medical milestone passed largely unnoticed. In a New York City operating room, surgeons gently removed the heart from a 43-year-old man who had died and shuttled it steps away to a patient in desperate need of a new one.
More than 3500 people in the United States receive a new heart each year. But this case was different—the first of its kind in the country. “It took us 6 months to prepare,” says Nader Moazami, surgical head of heart transplantation at New York University (NYU) Langone Health, where the operation took place. The run-up included oversight from an ethi...

Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: From mechanisms to therapy
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 May 2;163:114817. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114817. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) remain an intractable problem and have high morbidity and mortality worldwide, as well as substantial health and economic burdens, representing an urgent clinical need. In recent years, the focus of research has shifted from the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for transplantation to the use of their secretory exosomes (MSC-exosomes) for the treatment of numerous CVDs, including atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure (HF), ischemia/reperfusio...

Risk of hospital admission or emergency department presentation due to diabetes complications: a retrospective cohort study in Tasmania, Australia
ConclusionsOur results demonstrated the high demand on hospital services due to diabetes complications (especially macrovascular complications) and highlighted the importance of preventing and properly managing microvascular complications. These findings will support future resource allocation to reduce the increasing burden of diabetes in Australia.PMID:37137728 | DOI:10.1071/AH22271

Po-04-151 a new sequential artificial intelligence algorithm for predicting atrial fibrillation using serial 12-lead electrocardiograms
Because the early stage of atrial fibrillation (AF) is difficult to detect, a significant number of patients are exposed to the risk of stroke without forewarning. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms using 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) are being developed to detect AF early.

Dh-452784-2 identifying atrial fibrillation with sinus rhythm electrocardiogram using artificial intelligence in embolic stroke with undetermined source
Previous studies have demonstrated acceptable ranges of accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for identifying patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) based on their sinus rhythm electrocardiograms (ECGs). However, none of them has been validated in patients with embolic stroke with undetermined source (ESUS) in which thorough AF screening is required.

Artificial Intelligence for the Detection and Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
AF, the most common clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmia, is expected to affect>5 million Americans by 2050.1 The diagnosis is frequently associated with other cardiovascular comorbidities, including hypertension, obesity and sleep apnoea, and AF is an important risk factor for stroke, heart failure and overall mortality.2 –4 Although treatment is available, many people remain untreated becau...

Overset meshing in combination with novel blended weak-strong fluid-structure interactions for simulations of a translating valve in series with a second valve
This study developed a combined computational fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) methodology for simulating positive displacement bileaflet valves. Overset meshing discretised the fluid domain, and a blended weak-strong coupling FSI algorithm was combined with variable time-stepping. Four operating conditions of relevant stroke lengths and rates were assessed. The results demonstrated this modelling strategy is stable and efficient for modelling positive-displacement artificial hearts.PMID:37071538 | DOI:10.1080/10255842.2023.2199903
