Abstract: ABSTRACT L‐amino acid oxidase isolated from Crotalus mitchellii pyrrhus (Cmp‐LAAO) exhibited cytotoxicity against LNCaP prostate adenocarcinoma cells. The viability of LNCaP cells decreased in a concentration‐ and time‐dependent manner upon administration of Cmp‐LAAO. Cmp‐LAAO induced… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-03537-9
Abstract: The complex structure of the left atrial appendage (LAA) brings limitations to the two-dimensional-based LAA occlusion (LAAO) size prediction system using transesophageal echocardiography. The LAA anatomy can be evaluated more precisely using three-dimensional images from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/strokeaha.122.041057
Abstract: Background: Percutaneous endocardial left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is an alternative therapy for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation who are poor candidates for oral anticoagulants. Oral anticoagulation is generally discontinued 45 days following… read more here.
