Simultaneous measurement of the fractional area change of the GUV membrane (δ) and PGLa-induced increase in Icalcein showed that the entry of PGLa occurs only during the second increase in δ, indicating that PGLa enters the lumen during its translocation from the outer leaflet to the inner leaflet. The fraction of entry of PGLa without pore formation increased with increasing membrane tension. Based on these results, we discuss the elementary processes and the mechanism of the entry of PGLa into the GUV lumen. The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (ACSD) is the largest cardiac surgical database in the world. Linked data from STS ACSD and the CMS Medicare database were used to determine contemporary completeness, penetration, and representativeness of STS ACSD. Using variables common to both STS and CMS databases, STS procedures were linked to CMS data for all CMS CABG discharges between 2000 and 2018, inclusive. For each CMS CABG hospitalization, it was determined whether a matching STS record existed. Center-level penetration (number of CMS sites with at least one matched STS participant divided by total number of CMS CABG sites) increased from 45% in 2000 to 95% in 2018. In 2018, 949 of 1,004 CMS CABG sites (95%) were linked to an STS site. Patient-level penetration (number of CMS CABG hospitalizations at STS sites divided by total number of CMS CABG hospitalizations) increased from 51% in 2000 to 97% in 2018. In 2018, 68,584 of 70,818 CMS CABG hospitalizations (97%) occurred at an STS site. Completeness of case inclusion at STS sites (number of CMS CABG cases at STS sites linked to STS records divided by total number of CMS CABG cases at STS sites) increased from 88% in 2000 to 98% in 2018. In 2018, 66,673 of 68,108 CMS CABG hospitalizations at STS sites (98%) were linked to an STS record. Linka
