Cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms are implemented by means of a very complex control system involving neural, humoral, and mechanical agents. The state of the art in TAH today reveals that we have passed a stage where we can be satisfied with a 6 or 9 mo survival. Development and implementation of a versatile control theory must be another milestone before a TAH can really serve the prospective patient population requiring such a device. This study reveals the vital role and merits as well as the feasibility of incorporating such a control theory into the device.

Introduction: Intrusive memories occur frequently after potentially traumatic events and form a core symptom of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) if they persist. The translational approach of visuospatial interventions tries to target those intrusive memories in order to reduce their frequency predominantly using an intervention including as one component the computer game Despite promising results, the application of has critical drawbacks, e.g.

Based on critical discourse analysis of Canada's Muskoka Initiative (2010-15), this article outlines how medicalisation contributes to the depoliticisation and technocratisation of global maternal health, while reinforcing patterns of reproductive stratification. By constructing maternal health as a problem of managing medicalised risk, the Muskoka Initiative was able to position family planning as a risk-minimising practice that can improve health by averting pregnancy among populations deemed high risk. Interpreting this construction through the lenses of reproductive justice and biopolitics, I argue that this construction contributes to reproductive stratification and exemplifies how medicalised discourses have replaced overt discourses of population control within development policy, while continuing to discourage reproduction among racialised women in the Global South.

Deciphering the Topology of Sitagliptin Using an Integrated Approach.

ACS Omega

January 2025

Science Division, New York University Abu Dhabi, P.O. Box 129188, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Determining the structure of sitagliptin is crucial for ensuring its effectiveness and safety as a DPP-4 inhibitor used to treat type 2 diabetes. Accurate structure determination is vital for both drug development and maintaining quality control in manufacturing. This study integrates the advanced techniques of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, three-dimensional (3D) electron diffraction, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the structural intricacies of sitagliptin.
