Efficient isogeometric thin shell formulations for soft biological materials [PDF]
Biomech Model Mechanobiol (2017) 16:1569, 2016 This paper presents three different constitutive approaches to model thin rotation-free shells based on the Kirchhoff-Love hypothesis. One approach is based on numerical integration through the shell thickness while the other two approaches do not need any numerical integration and so they are computationally more efficient. The formulation is designed

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 380-388, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Background and purpose An early understanding of stroke mechanism may improve treatment and outcome in patients presenting with large vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We aimed to investigate whether spontaneous external carotid artery (ECA) embolism detection during MT is associated with stroke etiology

A Synopsis of Stent Graft Technology Development [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Treatments have evolved, with stenting becoming the primary approach over bypass surgery. This article reviews the evolution of coronary stent technology, starting from the first angioplasty in 1977. Pioneers like Forssmann, Dotter, and Gruentzig established the foundation.

Gradient-enhanced continuum models of healing in damaged soft tissues [PDF]
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, Springer Verlag,
2019, 18 (5), pp.1443-1460, 2019 Healing of soft biological tissue is the process of self-recovering or self-repairing the injured or damaged extracellular matrix (ECM). Healing is assumed to be stress-driven, with the objective of returning to a homeostatic stress metrics in the tissue after replacing the damaged ECM with new undamaged one.

A comparison of coronary angioplasty with fibrinolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2003 BACKGROUND For the treatment of myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation, primary angioplasty is considered superior to fibrinolysis for patients who are admitted to hospitals with angioplasty facilities.

Rounded notch method of femoral endarterectomy offers mechanical advantages in finite element models [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Objective: Use of a vascular punch to produce circular heel and toe arteriotomies for femoral endarterectomy with patch angioplasty is a novel technique. This study investigated the plausibility of this approach and the mechanical advantages of the technique using finite element models.

Randomized trial of preventive angioplasty in myocardial infarction.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2013 BACKGROUND In acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), the use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to treat the artery responsible for the infarct (infarct, or culprit, artery) improves prognosis.

Randomised trial of excimer laser angioplasty versus balloon angioplasty for treatment of obstructive coronary artery disease [PDF]
, 1996 BACKGROUND: Excimer laser coronary angioplasty is reported to give excellent procedural results for treatment of complex coronary lesions, but this method has not been compared with balloon angioplasty in a randomised trial.
