Proceedings ArticleDOI

An adaptive approach to abnormal heart sound segmentation

TL;DR: The method incorporates an adaptive approach for thresholding the simplicity and strength profiles to detect the timings of the sound in the presence of murmur to provide an automatic heart sounds analysis to medical professionals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preservation of the pulmonary annulus in total correction of tetralogy of Fallot. Decreasing transannular gradients in the early follow-up period.

TL;DR: The integrity of the pulmonary annulus was preserved in 21 of 22 children consecutively subjected to total correction of tetralogy of Fallot and a similar favourable evolution of the diameters of themonary annulus and of the right pulmonary artery was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term follow-up of elderly patients subjected to aortic valve replacement with mechanical prostheses.

TL;DR: In elderly patients older than 65 years of age who received a mechanical valve in the aortic position, implantation of a mechanical prosthesis in elderly patients safe and appropriate, but the choice must be tailored for each specific patient.
Journal ArticleDOI

An interdisciplinary debate initiated by the European Society of Cardiology Working Group on Valvular Heart Disease

Journal ArticleDOI

Polyphenolic characterisation and bioactivity of an Oxalis pes-caprae L. leaf extract

TL;DR: The extract showed antioxidant activity and standardised luteolin and apigenin derivatives showed neuroprotective potential, particularly homoorientin.
