  2. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    When performed properly, an alcohol septal ablation induces a controlled heart attack, in which the portion of the interventricular septum that involves the left ventricular outflow tract is infarcted and will contract into a scar. There is debate over which people are best served by surgical myectomy, alcohol septal ablation, or medical therapy.

  3. Timeline of human evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_human_evolution

    The evolution of eukaryotes, and possibly sex, is thought to be related to the GOE, as it probably pressured two or three lineages of prokaryotes (including an aerobe one, which later became mitochondria) to depend on each other, leading to endosymbiosis. Early eukaryotes lost their cell walls and outer membranes.

  5. Septal myectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septal_myectomy

    Septal myectomy is a cardiac surgery treatment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). [1] The open-heart surgery entails removing a portion of the septum that is obstructing the flow of blood from the left ventricle to the aorta .

  6. Heart septal defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_septal_defect

    Heart septal defect refers to a congenital heart defect [1] of one of the septa of the heart. Atrial septal defect; Atrioventricular septal defect; Ventricular septal defect; Although aortopulmonary septal defects are defects of the aorticopulmonary septum, which is not technically part of the heart, they are sometimes grouped with the heart ...

  7. Electrocardiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography

    A heart rate below normal is called "bradycardia" (<60 in adults) and above normal is called "tachycardia" (>100 in adults). A complication of this is when the atria and ventricles are not in synchrony and the "heart rate" must be specified as atrial or ventricular (e.g., the ventricular rate in ventricular fibrillation is 300–600 bpm ...

  8. Endovascular aneurysm repair - Wikipedia

    Type IV - Leakage through the graft wall due to the quality (porosity) of the graft material. As seen in first-generation grafts, changes in graft material in modern devices have decreased the prevalence of type IV leaks. Type V - Expansion of the aneurysm sac without an identifiable leak. Also called "endotension".

  9. Evolutionary graph theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_graph_theory

    Since < for all r greater than 1, this graph is by definition a suppressor of selection. Evolutionary graph theory may also be studied in a dual formulation, as a coalescing random walk, or as a stochastic process. We may consider the mutant population on a graph as a random walk between absorbing barriers representing mutant extinction and ...
