Creation of nonischemic functional mitral regurgitation by annular dilatation and nonplanar modification in a chronic in vivo swine model.
BACKGROUND Mechanisms and treatments of nonischemic functional mitral regurgitation (NIMR) are not fully established, in part, because of a lack of proper large animal models. We developed a novel technique of NIMR creation in a swine model by making multiple small incisions in the mitral annulus. METHODS AND RESULTS Ex vivo experiments using isolated swine hearts (n=10) showed a 15% increase...

In many scientific, economic and policy-related problems, pieces of information from different sources have to be aggregated. Typically, the sources are not equally competent. This raises the question of how the relative weights and competences should be related to arrive at an optimal final verdict. Our paper addresses this question under a more realistic perspective of measuring the practical...
متن کاملDerivation of Mesoscale Atmospheric Motion Vectors Using Coms Images at Kma/nimr
Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) is the first Korean geostationary satellite, which is located in 128.2°E launched in 2010, and it is currently under normal operation. Atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) derived with high resolution satellite images are useful for analyzing mesoscale motion such as convective clouds and ageostrophic flow. National Institute of Meteorologic...
