Mismatch Repair

6.6K
Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The Mutator Protein Family Plays a Key Role in DNA Mismatch Repair
The human genome has more than 3 billion base pairs of DNA per cell. Prior to cell division, that vast amount of genetic...

Pharmacodynamics in Geriatric Patients: Effects of Age

239
Age-related pharmacokinetic changes are extensively documented, but understanding age-related pharmacodynamic alterations is relatively limited. This knowledge gap can be partly attributed to the complexity of developing appropriate measures of drug responses compared to bioanalytical methods for determining drug concentrations.Most information regarding age-related differences in human pharmacodynamics originates from cross-sectional studies. However, these studies assume that observed mean...

Heart Valves01:16

Heart Valves

12.2K
The human heart is a complex organ with an intricate system of valves that regulate blood flow. There are two main types of valves: atrioventricular (AV) valves and semilunar valves.
The AV valves prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria during ventricular contraction. These valves function with the assistance of the chordae tendineae and papillary muscles. When the ventricles are relaxed, the chordae tendineae are slack, allowing blood to flow from the atria into the...

Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

1.1K
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy, also known as CRRT, is a procedural treatment for acute kidney injury (AKI) that gradually removes uremic toxins and fluids while maintaining acid-base balance and stabilizing electrolytes. It is particularly useful for hemodynamically unstable patients. Unlike intermittent hemodialysis, which is faster, CRRT provides a gentler approach over 24 hours, closely mimicking the function of natural kidneys. However, CRRT is not ideal for patients with...

Mitral Valve Prolapse I: Introduction

554
IntroductionThe mitral valve, one of the heart's four valves, regulates blood flow. These valves have flaps that open and close to direct blood properly through the heart and body. During each heartbeat, the flaps open for blood to pass through and seal shut to prevent backflow. Specifically, the mitral valve opens to allow blood flow from the heart's upper left chamber to the lower left chamber. It then closes securely as the lower left chamber contracts to pump blood to the body, preventing...

Summary

Avoiding significant patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM) after aortic valve replacement improves left ventricular mass regression and functional capacity. However, it does not significantly alter left ventricular geometry.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Cardiac Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Severe aortic stenosis necessitates aortic valve replacement.
  • Patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM) can impact outcomes after surgery.
  • Understanding PPM's effect on cardiac remodeling is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of PPM on left ventricular (LV) structure and function post-aortic valve replacement.
  • To analyze the relationship between PPM severity and LV mass index (LVMi) changes.
  • To assess functional capacity improvements in relation to PPM.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 91 patients undergoing isolated surgical aortic valve replacement (sAVR).
  • PPM severity assessed using Valve Academic Research Consortium-3 criteria.
  • LV geometry and functional capacity evaluated pre- and post-operatively.

Main Results:

  • Significant PPM was present in 17.6% of patients.
  • Insignificant PPM group showed greater LVMi reduction (-33 g/m² vs. -14.5 g/m²).
  • Significant PPM was associated with less LVMi regression and poorer functional capacity improvement.

Conclusions:

  • Avoiding significant PPM promotes better LV mass regression.
  • Improved functional capacity is observed when significant PPM is avoided.
  • Significant PPM does not appear to significantly alter LV geometry.
