Abstract: Various complications can cause hypoxemia after pulmonary resection for lung cancer, but intracardiac shunt that becomes symptomatic and causes severe hypoxemia postoperatively is very rare. We report a case that presented platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) due… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.media.2020.101948
Abstract: Intracardiac blood flow is driven by differences in relative pressure, and assessing these is critical in understanding cardiac disease. Non-invasive image-based methods exist to assess relative pressure, however, the complex flow and dynamically moving fluid… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2017/5724046
Abstract: Diabetes is comorbid with cardiovascular disease and impaired immunity. Rapamycin improves cardiac functions and extends lifespan by inhibiting the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). However, in diabetic murine models, Rapamycin elevates hyperglycemia and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2021.699291
Abstract: In patients with atrial fibrillation, intracardiac electrogram signal amplitude is known to decrease with increased structural tissue remodeling, referred to as fibrosis. In addition to the isolation of the pulmonary veins, fibrotic sites are considered… read more here.
