A clinical case of successful surgical treatment in a patient with severe New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class IIIIV heart failure, critical aortic stenosis, and extremely low left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) (16%) is presented. Aortic valve leaflet replacement was performed according to the Ozaki technique. The postoperative course uneventful discharged from hospital ...

Abstract Purpose of the Review The aim this article is to describe technique aortic valve neocuspidization using autologous pericardium (AVNeo, “OZAKI procedure”) in adult cardiac surgery, analyze recent findings, and discuss benefits limitations technique. Recent Findings Potential include excellent hemodynamic performances, minimal use foreign material, low rates permanent pacemaker implantat...

A novel method is presented for estimating the parameters of a parametric diffusion process. The approach based on closed-form Maximum Likelihood estimator an approximating Continuous Time Markov Chain (CTMC) Unlike typical time discretization approaches, such as pseudo-likelihood approximations with Shoji-Ozaki or Kessler's method, CTMC approximation introduces no time-discretization error dur...

The article “Effect of interfacial drag force model on code prediction for upward adiabatic two-phase bubbly flow in vertical channels” written by Takashi Hibiki and Tetsuhiro Ozaki, was originally published electronically the publisher’s internet portal (currently SpringerLink) 04 January 2020 without open access. After publication Volume 2, Issue 4, page 212–224, author(s) decided to opt Open...

In our previous publication [Ozaki and Ogata, Phys. Rev. Res. 3, 013058 (2021)], the quantization of orbital-Zeeman (OZ) cross term in magnetic susceptibility, or spin Zeeman orbital effect, was shown for Kane-Mele model using expansion around Dirac points. present study, we accurately evaluate orbital, spin-Zeeman, OZ a recently developed formulation. This method uses explicit real-space Bloch...

Humans born without a corpus callosum (CC) are often comparatively slow and clumsy on tasks requiring bilateral motor coordination. In this study, we attempted to identify correlates of CC agenesis in mice by examining an ecologically valid motor behavior: running-wheel performance. Mice with varying degrees of congenital CC deficits were tested on a running wheel apparatus for 7 consecutive da...
