A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

Aortic Coarctation: Recent Developments in Experimental and Computational Methods to Assess Treatments for this Simple Condition [PDF]
, 2010 Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is often considered a relatively simple disease, but long-term outcomes suggest otherwise as life expectancies are decades less than in the average population and substantial morbidity often exists.

Intrinsic PPG–ECG Coupling for Accurate and Low‐Power Blood Pressure Monitoring
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A PPG–ECG coupling strategy for continuous blood pressure monitoring that intrinsically synchronizes signals within a single waveform is demonstrated, minimizing synchronization errors and hardware complexity. This approach halves power consumption while maintaining high accuracy, enabling compact, energy‐efficient wearable devices for personalized ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Endothelial GPR68 is identified as a critical regulator of collateral artery growth in peripheral artery disease. Genetic and pharmacological evidence demonstrates that GPR68 integrates hemodynamic cues to drive monocyte recruitment and inflammatory remodeling, thereby promoting collateral arteriogenesis and tissue perfusion after ischemia ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Arterial stiffness: From surrogate marker to therapeutic target☆
Artery Research, 2016 Carotid-femoral (aortic) pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the modern benchmark for the assessment of arterial stiffness. Current European hypertension guidelines acknowledge the good cardiovascular (CV) predictive value, reproducibility and cost ...
