Here’s a game I haven’t played on tabletop because it’s so long and fairly heavy, but the app is stunning, featuring by far the best tutorial I’ve seen. It even has a legitimately funny joke buried within it. Through the Ages is a 4X (explore, expand, exploit, exterminate) style game played out with cards, where you try to build a civilization, complete wonders for points, beat opponents with your military, improve your government, and ensure that your workers don’t riot. There is a lot going on in this game, and too much accounting for my tastes, but the app takes care of that stuff for you, so you can focus just on playing the game itself. It also has built-in warnings if your workers are going to riot or you’re going to lose resources before the next turn. The false 3-D perspective also helps them cram a lot of buildings onto your screen without crowding it. Games against AI players take 20-plus minutes, more than anything else on this list, but there’s very little downtime involved.

“Currier’s sculpture is both a study in balance and an invitation to discovery,” said Nancy Weekly, exhibition curator. As she has stated, her Anamorphosis series reflects, “the interplay of masses and voids. Absence and presence, light and shadow, stasis and motion are subject matter. The dimensional tension and dynamics of human figures found in Greek and Buddhist temple pediments, and most recently, the structural flatness and synthesis of planar shapes in Cubist still-life paintings intrigue me.”

Most patients with symptomatic AS experience exertional angina. A proportion of patients develop syncope on exertion, while exertional dyspnoea and other symptoms of heart failure occur late in the disease. Rarely, patients can develop underlying arrhythmia which may present as palpitations or pre-syncopal episodes.

“Display, the title of the exhibition, echoes the context or intent of an object and how it can shift when placed in varying spaces; but it’s really all one display,” says Anne Currier. “Showing my work as the Langley H. Kenzie Award recipient is part of a series of year-long positive coincidences. The Burchfield Penney’s support of craft-based media, exhibiting in its Sylvia L. Rosen Gallery and earning a collaborative grant to design tile walls with Boston Valley Terra Cotta is a confluence that transformed 2017 into a miracle for me.”

Aortic stenosis causes obstruction, thereby increasing the workload of the LV (afterload). Compensatory mechanisms react to the pressure overload by stimulating hypertrophy of the ventricle with preserved LV function. Progression of the stenosis may eventually lead to failure of these mechanisms, with reduction in systolic function and dilatation of the ventricle (end-stage AS).

A game by design luminary Reiner Knizia — who’s perfect for digital adaptations, since his games tend to have math-based mechanics — this pits two to four players against each other for control of building tiles on a board … but the catch is that you gain points in the four different building colors, and then you’re judged on the lowest of those four scores. The player with the best low score wins. It’s one of Knizia’s mathiest games underneath, but plays out as one of his most interactive because the mechanics allow players to seize control of huge portions of the board, even well into the game.

Dr. Janet Henderson said she is concerned about “the quality of care [KwikVet veterinarians] are able to provide with minimal resources.” A house-call practitioner in Ontario, Canada, Henderson travels with a van full of supplies. “I learned early on that if I didn’t bring all of my equipment and supplies, I would invariably need something I hadn’t brought," she said. "Veterinary medicine tends to be very unpredictable."

Drawing some inspiration from nature’s palette observed from her Allegany County home and studio, Currier creates surfaces reminiscent of mottled boulders, slate and rust, as well as intangible fog.

There are two main types of prosthesis in valve replacement - mechanical and bioprosthetic (see box).

There is no role for statin therapy in AS.13-15 Co-existent hypertension or heart failure in patients with AV disease should be treated accordingly. Current NICE guidelines (reviewed in 2015) state that routine antibiotic prophylaxis for infective endocarditis is not indicated in patients with AV disease.16
