Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive Structural and Molecular Comparison of Spike Proteins of SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, and Their Interactions with ACE2.

TL;DR: This review comprehensively addresses in detail the variations in S protein, its receptor-binding characteristics and detailed structural interactions, the process of cleavage involved in priming, as well as other differences between coronaviruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical and experimental investigations of pulsatile blood flow pattern through a dysfunctional mechanical heart valve.

TL;DR: The results show that the flow downstream of a dysfunctional valve was characterized by abnormally elevated velocities and shear stresses as well as large scale vortices which can predispose to blood components damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visualization of an imploding circular wave front and the formation of a central vertical jet

TL;DR: Graphical abstracts as mentioned in this paper are used in this paper. But they do not specify the authorship of the abstracts, only the authors themselves, and their authorship is unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flow through a defective mechanical heart valve: A steady flow analysis

TL;DR: It is shown that valve malfunction has a significant impact on platelet activation and therefore on thrombus formation and this resulted in a misleading improvement in the correlation between simulated Doppler echocardiographic and catheter transvalvular pressure gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accuracy of Doppler-echocardiographic parameters for the detection of aortic bileaflet mechanical prosthetic valve dysfunction.

TL;DR: The Doppler-echocardiographic parameters and criteria proposed in the guidelines without sensitivity for the detection of BMV dysfunction lack sensitivity for detection of moderate-to-severe dysfunction.
