  • Track 5: Cardiology and the Imaging Revolution
    TRACK 5: CARDIOLOGY AND THE IMAGING REVOLUTION Volume 10 • Number 1 Abstract no: 1 Summer 2013 Real time 3-D echocardiographic characteristics of left ventricle and left atrium in normal children Bao Phung Tran Cong, Nii Masaki, Miyakoshi Chihiro, Yoshimoto Jun, Kato Atsuko, Ibuki Keichiro, Kim Sunghae, Mitsushita Norie, Tanaka Yasuhiko and Ono Yasuo Cardiac Department, Shizuoka Children’s Hospital, Shizuoka, Japan Background: The accurate assessment of left atrial (LA) and/or left ventricular (LV) volume and contractility is crucial for the management of patients with congenital heart disease. The real time 3-dimensional echocardiography (RT3-DE) is reported to show better correlation with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in estimating LV and LA volume than conventional 2-dimensional echocardiography (2-DE). On the other hand, the volume measurement in RT3-DE is also reported to be significantly smaller than those in MRI, necessitating the establishment of normal values of RT3-DE itself. Aim: To identify the normal values of LV and LA volume measured by RT3-DE in Japanese children. Methods: Sixty four normal school students (age: median 9.6 years; range (5.5 - 14.5); male 26, female 38) were enrolled in this study. End-diastolic and end- systolic LV and LA volumes were analysed using M-mode in short-axis view, 2-D biplane method, and RT3-DE. We used IE-33 (PHILIPS) with matrix probe X7 and X4. Off-line assessment to calculate LA and LV volume was done using QLAB 8.1 (Philips). Results: Forty nine children (age: median 9.1 years, range (6 - 14); male 21, female 28) had adequate RT3-DE data sets and were analysed.

For SQ1 we worked closely with Chris Coleman and other Sonor artists in the development of this new drum series. The input from a professional players point of view provided many important insights. As a first step we looked for a shell material that would meet the request for a very balanced sound.

  • Developing a 3D Model of the Airways
    Developing a 3D Model of the Airways A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Tankut G. Güney Airway Disease Section, National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW3 6LY 1 Abstract Chronic cigarette smoke exposure leads to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in susceptible individuals where goblet cell metaplasia, ciliated cell hypoplasia and extra cellular matrix (ECM) thickening are observed. Current in vitro COPD models such as air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures, cannot model the complex morphology and the cell-ECM interaction seen in vivo. No organoid models of COPD currently exist and, therefore, a lung organoid model termed bronchosphere of COPD was generated. Basal epithelial cells from normal healthy and COPD donors were cultured into bronchospheres over 20 days in 25% Matrigel. Bronchospheres were characterised using quantitative PCR, immunofluorescence and RNA sequencing. The effect of stromal cells on basal epithelial cell-derived bronchosphere structure and function were investigated through a triple culture of bronchial epithelial, lung fibroblast and airway smooth muscle cells. COPD bronchospheres developed more slowly displaying goblet cell hyperplasia and ciliated cell hypoplasia with reduced cilial beat frequencies compared to normal healthy controls. Normal healthy basal cells chronically treated with cigarette smoke condensate formed bronchospheres with lumens lacking a differentiated epithelium. RNA-seq analysis of bronchospheres showed up-regulation of the club cell markers mucin 5B (muc5b) and secretoglobin family 3A member 1 (scgb3a1) in healthy vs COPD bronchospheres. Pathway analysis revealed increased extracellular matrix function and decreased fibroblast growth factor signalling in COPD and cigarette smoke-treated healthy bronchospheres, which may be a possible driver of disease phenotype.

    GO WILD AND Wolfmother have been praised for striking “a balance between meaty vintage metal and crisp, stoner-rock melodies”. Drummer Alex Carapetis uses a Sonor Vintage Series kit for his typical energetic playing that brings the band’s songs to life. Check out Wolfmother with Alex on tour or on bit.ly/2gbv0tE and experience ALEX CARAPETIS - WOLFMOTHER Photo: Jason Sheldon the classic Vintage Sonor sound. GO WILD AND ROCK OUT COLOR: VINTAGE PEARL Kenny Clarke is one of the most important innovators of the bebop era. He was the first to free the drummer from a strictly metronomic role, allowing for more creative musical expression and involving himself more with the color aspects drumming. In the 50s and 60s he became one of the first American artists to endorse Sonor drums. “At the time I used to go down to Birdland I remember seeing my idol, Kenny Clarke…He had this almost magical sense of time, though he just played ride cymbal and a few kick drum accents…What was magical about him was not his technique but the actual feeling of his playing the time, floating Miles Davis and the whole band on his ride cymbal.” Steve Reich quoted from Russell Hartenberger “Performance Practice in the Music of Steve Reich” Cambridge University Press 2016 Vintage instruments tell us stories. They bring the A TIMELESS past to life. Listening to the unique character of tube amplifiers, enjoying the warm sound of vinyl albums or driving a classic car... you get the idea. CONCEPT FOR So we transformed the original Sonor sound, look & feel of the fabulous 50s, 60s and 70s drums into a TIMEKEEPERS contemporary concept: the Vintage Series.
