Impacts of systemic inflammation response index on the prognosis of patients with ischemic heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention.

Background: Atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases are significantly affected by low-grade chronic inflammation. As a new inflammatory marker, the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) has been demonstrated to be associated with several cardiovascular disease prognoses. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of SIRI in individuals having ischemic heart failure (IHF) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Effect of optimized thrombus aspiration on myocardial perfusion and prognosis in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective: To investigate the impact of optimized thrombus aspiration on myocardial perfusion, prognosis, and safety in patients with acute STsegment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(primary PCI).

Methods: A total of 129 patients with STEMI were randomly allocated into control group (Subgroup A and B) and experimental group(Subgroup C and D). Control group received percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA),thrombus aspiration and primary PCI.

Abiotic Formation of Calcium Oxalate under UV Irradiation and Implications for Biomarker Detection on Mars.

A major objective in the exploration of Mars is to test the hypothesis that the planet has ever hosted life. Biogenic compounds, especially biominerals, are believed to serve as biomarkers in Raman-assisted remote sensing missions. However, the prerequisite for the development of these minerals as biomarkers is the uniqueness of their biogenesis.

Numerical investigation of dynamic responses and mooring forces of submerged floating tunnel driven by surface waves.

Based on Navier-Stokes equations, a numerical model for studying the dynamic responses and mooring forces of the moored Submerged Floating Tunnel (SFT) driven by surface waves is presented in this paper. The mechanics models of the vertically and inclinedly moored floating body under wave forces are built, and the overset meshing method is employed to dynamically configure the computational meshes. Two laboratory experiments are used for validating the numerical model in terms of motion responses and mooring forces of the SFT, indicating the proposed model is capable of accurately simulating the instantaneous position of the body under the wave action.
