Abstract: A system and automated method for assessing ventricular synchrony in ambulatory patients is provided including at least one mechanical sensor (e.g., accelerometer, tensiometric sensor, force transducer, and the like) operatively coupled to a first myocardial location in order to measure a wall motion signal of a first chamber, and a second mechanical sensor operatively coupled to a second myocardial location in order to measure a wall motion signal of a second chamber. The wall motion signals are processed in order to identify the time at which a fiducial (e.g., an inflection point, a threshold crossing, a maximum amplitude, etc.) occurs for each respective signal. The temporal separation between the fiducial points on each respective signal is measured as a metric of ventricular synchrony and can be optionally utilized to adjust pacing therapy timing to improve synchrony.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of treating BPH using modified pore-forming proteins (MPPs). These MPPs are derived from naturally occurring cytotoxic proteins (nPPs) that kill cells by forming pores or channels in the cell membrane, resulting in cell death. The MPPs are generated by modification of the nPPs such that they are capable of being selectively activated at normal prostate cells. Such modification may include the addition of a prostate-specific protease cleavage site to the activation sequence, and/or the addition of a prostate-specific targeting domain to allow selective targeting of prostate cells. These MPPs are capable of selectively targeting and killing normal prostate cells in vivo. The MPPs may be used either alone or in combination with other therapies for the treatment of BPH.
