Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

Towards a Compositional Framework for Describing Human Phenotypes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Phenotype Assembly Method (PhenoAM) decomposes phenotype variables into measurable Features and typed Qualifiers, enabling standardized, machine‐readable Phenome Data Elements (PhenoDEs) that preserve measurement context. Applied in the International Human Phenome Project (IHPP), the framework yields 58 371 PhenoDEs and supports component‐level ...

Interaction Between Operator and Assistant Certification Is Associated With Local Recurrence After Laparoscopic Rectal Cancer Surgery: An Ancillary Analysis of the EnSSURE Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
A significant synergistic interaction between operator and assistant certification was associated with a lower risk of local recurrence after laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Patients treated by both ESSQS‐qualified operators and assistants had the lowest risk of local recurrence, whereas a single qualification alone was not associated with a ...

Correlation between Body Mass Index and abdominal circumference in Belgian adults: a cross-sectional study

Romanian journal of internal medicine = Revue roumaine de medecine interne, 2017
Introduction. Traditionally, the body mass index (BMI) is used to describe anthropometric measurements and to assess weight-related health risks. However, the abdominal circumference (AC) might also be a valuable parameter to estimate this risk.
