Heart failure is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. End stage disease often requires heart transplantation, which is hampered by donor organ shortage. Tissue engineering represents a promising alternative approach for cardiac repair. For the generation of artificial heart muscle tissue several cell types, scaffold materials and bioreactor designs are under investigation. In this revi...

BACKGROUND There is an increasing need for organs for transplantation purposes. Knowledge and attitudes among the medical team may affect the donation process. When respiration and cardiac activity are being sustained by artificial means, Norwegian law requires angiographic evidence of cessation of cerebral circulation as well as clinical examination before an organ donation can be carried out....

brain death is defined as the permanent, irreversible and concurrent loss of all brain and brain stem functions. brain death diagnosis is based on clinical criteria and it is not routine to use paraclinical studies. in some countries, electroencephalogram (eeg) is performed in all patients for the determination of brain death while there is some skepticism in relying on eeg as a confirmatory te...

Introduction In some regions of the world viral hepatitis is a common disease that can be severe enough to result in severe decrease in liver function and death. Liver transplantation is an effective treatment. However, it involves major surgery and it also depends on the very limited availability of donor livers. The same can also be said for extensive liver resection for metastatic cancer or ...

Organ tablature music notation differs considerably in structure and form from the used today. The manual transcription of organ compositions to modern is time-consuming often prone errors. In this paper, we present a deep learning approach automatically recognize scanned documents transcribe it notation. Our aimed at generating uniform that remains as close possible original sheet therefore do...
