Abstract Advancements in congenital heart surgery have heightened the importance of durable biomaterials for adult survivors. Dystrophic calcification poses a significant risk to the long-term viability of prosthetic biomaterials in these procedures. Herein, we describe the natural history of calcification in the most frequently used vascular conduits, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene grafts.

4. Discussion While multiple studies have focused on factors associated with survival, few have specifically examined factors which are associated with long survival in excess of 15 years [,,]. With the median survival of lung transplant recipients approaching seven years, recipients are living longer than ever before []. However, particularly for young patients or those without additional significant comorbidities, this length of time can still be seen as discouraging.

Abstract : Intracortical neural probes are both a powerful tool in basic neuroscience studies of brain function and a critical component of brain computer interfaces (BCIs) designed to restore function to paralyzed patients. Intracortical neural probes can be used both to detect neural activity at single unit resolution and to stimulate small populations of neurons with high resolution.
