  • Patent number: 9775930
    Abstract: A bioscaffolding can be formed within a post-myocardial infarct region sufficient to cause attenuation of a rate of myocardial infarct expansion. A bioscaffolding may further be formed in the post-myocardial infarct region to cause an increase in posterior left ventricular wall thickness. The gel or bioscaffolding can be formed from a mixture of gel components of different gelation systems. For example, a bioscaffolding can be formed by mixing at least two different components of at least two different two-component gelation systems to form a first mixture and by mixing at least two different components (other than the components that make up the first mixture) of the at least two different two-component gelation systems to form a second mixture.

  • Patent number: 8506499
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of and systems for predicting recurrence of atrial fibrillation comprising protease and protease inhibitor profiling. The levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and/or tissue inhibitor metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are analyzed to predict the recurrence of atrial fibrillation, and further to predict whether cardioversion will provide a successful therapy.
