Article Synopsis
  • COVID-19 patients experienced increased stress, poor sleep quality, and higher inflammatory markers, prompting a study on the impact of heartfulness meditation as a nonpharmacological treatment.
  • Conducted as a randomized controlled trial at AIIMS Mangalagiri, the study involved 50 patients divided into two groups: one practicing 4 weeks of heartfulness meditation and the other receiving relaxation techniques.
  • Results showed that both groups had reduced stress, lower cortisol levels, decreased inflammatory markers, better sleep quality, and improved overall health after the 4-week intervention.

Coronary flow induces hemodynamic alterations in the aortic sinus region. The objectives of this study are to: (1) investigate the differences among sinus hemodynamics and leaflet wall shear stresses engendered by the left versus right versus non-coronary flow and (2) correlate respective wall shear stresses with leaflet calcification in patients. A left heart simulator flow loop with a tunable coronary circuit provided physiological coronary flow waveforms corresponding to the left coronary cusp case (LCC), right coronary cusp case (RCC), and non-coronary cusp case (NCC).
