2. Entropy (order and disorder) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(order_and_disorder)

   To highlight the fact that order and disorder are commonly understood to be measured in terms of entropy, below are current science encyclopedia and science dictionary definitions of entropy: A measure of the unavailability of a system's energy to do work; also a measure of disorder; the higher the entropy the greater the disorder. [4]

3. Valve interstitial cells - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_interstitial_cells

   Valve interstitial cells (VIC), cardiac valve interstitial cells, or also known as valvular interstitial cells (VICs), are the most prevalent cells in the heart valve leaflets, which are a type of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and are responsible for maintaining the extracellular matrix that provides the mechanical properties of the heart valve.

4. Order and disorder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_and_disorder

   In physics, the terms order and disorder designate the presence or absence of some symmetry or correlation in a many-particle system. [ citation needed ] In condensed matter physics , systems typically are ordered at low temperatures ; upon heating, they undergo one or several phase transitions into less ordered states.

5. Introduction to entropy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_entropy

   As a measure of disorder: Traditionally, 20th century textbooks have introduced entropy as order and disorder so that it provides "a measurement of the disorder or randomness of a system". It has been argued that ambiguities in, and arbitrary interpretations of, the terms used (such as "disorder" and "chaos") contribute to widespread confusion ...

6. Entropy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy

   Entropy is often loosely associated with the amount of order or disorder, or of chaos, in a thermodynamic system. The traditional qualitative description of entropy is that it refers to changes in the state of the system and is a measure of "molecular disorder" and the amount of wasted energy in a dynamical energy transformation from one state ...

   The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. If you have tricuspid atresia, the valve doesn’t have an opening, which blocks blood flow between the atrium and ...

8. Shone's syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shone's_syndrome

   Classifying cardiac lesions in infants is quite difficult, and accurate diagnosis is essential. The diagnosis of Shone’s syndrome requires an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) and a cardiac catheterization procedure, that is, insertion of a device through blood vessels in the groin to the heart that helps identify heart anatomy.
