BACKGROUND The effective orifice area (EOA) of a prosthetic valve is superior to transvalvular gradients as a measure of valve function, but measurement of mitral prosthesis EOA has not been reliable. METHODS AND RESULTS In vitro flow across St Jude valves was calculated by hemispheric proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) and segment-of-spheroid (SOS) methods. For steady and pulsatile con...

A framework, PISA, for conducting dialogues to resolve disputes concerning the correct categorisation of particular cases, is described. Unlike previous systems to conduct such dialogues, which have typically involved only two agents, PISA allows any number of agents to take part, facilitating discussion of cases which permit many possible categorizations. A particular feature of the framework ...

The problem of existence of ground state representations on the CCR algebra with free evolution are discussed and all the solutions are classified in terms of non regular or indefinite invariant function-als. In both cases one meets unusual mathematical structures which appear as prototypes of phenomena typical of gauge quantum field theory, in particular of the temporal gauge. The functional i...
