Determination of cardiac parameters for modulation of blood pump support

The systems, devices, and methods presented herein use a blood pump to obtain measurements of cardiac function. The system can quantify the functioning of the native heart by measuring certain parameters / signals such as aortic pressure or motor current, then calculate and display one or more cardiac parameters and heart function parameters, such as left ventricular pressure, left ventricular end diastolic pressure, or cardiac power output. These parameters provide valuable information to a user regarding current cardiac function, as well as positioning and function of the blood pump. In some embodiments, the system can act as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. Providing cardiac parameters in real-time, along with warnings about adverse effects and recommendations to support cardiac function, such as increasing or decreasing the volumetric flow rate of blood pumped by the device, administering pharmaceutical therapies, and / or repositioning the blood pump allow clinicians to better support and treat cardiovascular disease.

Albumin bound macromolecule tri-agonist activating GLP-1 / GIP / glucagon receptors

A pharmaceutical composition comprises a GPCR agonist fusion protein in which a GPCR agonist peptide is covalently coupled to albumin via a linker in a manner that is resistant to a retro-Michael addition. Advantageously, compositions presented herein avoid decoupling of the agonist form the albumin while retaining the agonist in a steric relationship to the albumin that allows for effective binding and activation of the GPCR while also enabling gp60-mediated transcytosis and FcRn-mediated albumin recycling. These properties enable ultra-low dosages for the GPCR agonist fusion protein to give a therapeutic effect while substantially reducing or even entirely avoiding adverse effects otherwise commonly associated with unbound agonists. Such retro-Michael resistant composition is generally achieved by conformational modification of the albumin, resulting in stereoselective coupling of the linker to the albumin.

Porous-Based Bone Replacement Materials Formed By Triply Periodic Minimal Surface Structure

Porous-based bone implants with the integration of Triply Periodic Minimal Surface, TPMS, porous architectures are designed to support the growth and proliferation of bone tissue, bone marrow, and capillaries. This disclosure intends to reduce the adverse effect of conventional implants such as bone resorption over time, which is called the “stress shielding effect”. The “stress shielding effect” is caused by the mismatch between the implant and natural bone stiffness. Triply Periodic Minimal Surface, TPMS, porous architectures exhibit interconnected pore features. The interconnection of the porous network allows the TPMS to have a higher permeability than that of other porous structures, leading to more favorable nutrient transport. In addition, many physical characteristics of the TPMS structures including surface-to-volume ratio, pore size, elastic modulus, and fluid behaviors can be controlled precisely through mathematical manipulation. As a result, TPMS-based implants could be physical features, which are vaned based on different bone regions. In other words, the medical implants may exhibit non-uniform or gradient physical features, which can match the characteristic of trabecular and cortical bones. Therefore, TPMS-based implants could adjust the features to mimic neighboring bone regions. As a result, we can achieve medical implants, which have superior mechanical and biological responses, resulting in optimal cell growth and better medical treatment.
