4D Bioprinting: Keeping the Technology Alive
4D bioprinting is an area of research with an ambitious yet clear goal in mind: the creation of an artificial organ that perfectly mimics the functional movements of a native organ and is fully integrated within the human body. This perspective outlines the roadmap toward achieving this objective, beginning with MIS and transitioning into DTE ...

Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Malignant Pericardial Mesothelioma
ABSTRACT Primary malignant pericardial mesothelioma (PMPM), a rare pericardium‐derived malignancy, urgently requires standardized diagnostic and therapeutic protocols. This consensus, established by the Chinese Alliance of Research for Mesothelioma (ChARM) through the integration of evidence‐based research and multicenter clinical expertise, addresses ...

Diagnosis of mitral insufficiency using impedance cardiography technique ICG
Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive tool for assessing the hemodynamic parameters. It has been used for diagnosing several cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, cardio-myopathy, and valvular diseases. Particularly, the valvular heart

Experimental investigation of the flow downstream of a dysfunctional bileaflet mechanical aortic valve [PDF]
Mechanical heart valve replacement is the preferred alternative in younger patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease. However, thrombus and pannus formations are common complications associated with bileaflet mechanical heart valves. This leads to risks of valve leaflet dysfunction, a life threatening event.

Challenges and Innovative Strategies in 3D Printing of Natural Biomolecular Hydrogels
ABSTRACT Natural biomolecules with excellent biocompatibility, degradability, and the ability to guide effective tissue regeneration are considered ideal materials for constructing tissue engineering hydrogel scaffolds. The employing of 3D printing technology facilitates the preparation of natural biomolecular‐based scaffold for specific morphological

Advancing aortic stenosis assessment: validation of fluid-structure interaction models against 4D flow MRI data [PDF]
Systematic in vivo validations of computational models of the aortic valve remain scarce, despite successful validation against in vitro data. Utilizing a combination of computed tomography and 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging data, we developed patient-specific fluid-structure interaction models of the aortic valve immersed in the aorta for five ...
