Objective: Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is common after cardiac surgery and is often considered to be benign despite recent data suggesting worse outcomes. There are no guidelines for the amount of POAF that triggers anticoagulation or for postoperative surveillance. We examined the rate of POAF, incidence of neurologic events, development of permanent atrial fibrillation, and mortality in patients undergoing isolated mitral valve surgery at a Mitral Foundation reference center.

In many epithelia, including the corneal endothelium, intracellular/extracellular stresses break down the perijunctional actomyosin ring (PAMR) and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) at the apical junctions. This study aims to grade the severity of damage to PAMR and ZO-1 through machine learning. Immunocytochemical images of PAMR and ZO-1 were drawn from recent studies on the corneal endothelium subjected to hypothermia and oxidative stress.
