Using Bayesian Optimization to Guide Probing of a Flexible Environment for Simultaneous Registration and Stiffness Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
One of the goals of computer-aided surgery is to match intraoperative data to preoperative images of the anatomy and add complementary information that can facilitate the task of surgical navigation. In this context, mechanical palpation can reveal critical anatomical features such as arteries and cancerous lumps which are stiffer that the surrounding ...

Cellular mechanisms underlying obesity-induced arterial stiffness.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology. Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2018
Obesity is an emerging pandemic driven by consumption of a diet rich in fat and highly refined carbohydrates (a Western diet) and a sedentary lifestyle in both children and adults.

Engineering the Immune Response to Biomaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper reviews immune responses to biomaterials, stages of evolution in relation to managing these responses ranging from preventing to modulating them. It also discusses state‐of‐the‐art strategies to modulate these responses and modes of their delivery.

Arterial Stiffness in Chronic Kidney Disease: The Usefulness of a Marker of Vascular Damage

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2011
Increased arterial stiffness is a marker of vasculopathy in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, suggesting a significant cardiovascular damage. Detection of arterial stiffness provides physicians with useful prognostic information independent of ...

Short-Term Prognostic Impact of Arterial Stiffness in Older Adults Without Prevalent Cardiovascular Disease.

open access: yesHYPERTENSION, 2019
Arterial stiffness, represented as carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD). In older populations, however, this association seems attenuated.

Flavonifractor Plautii or Its Metabolite Desaminotyrosine as Prophylactic Agents for Alleviating Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome is a potential target for treating cardiovascular disease. It is found that prophylactic administration of Flavonifractor plautii or its metabolite desaminotyrosine (DAT) exerts pleiotropic cardioprotective effects via promoting cardiomyocyte survival and attenuating cardiac inflammation against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R ...

Gender Difference in the Relationship of Albuminuria and Arterial Stiffness in Chinese Adults - a 6.6-Year Follow-Up Longitudinal Study

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2018
Background/Aims: Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) reflects the stiffness of muscular arteries. Albuminuria is recognized as a marker of vascular dysfunction. We assessed the association between arterial stiffness and albuminuria in a population-

Simultaneous imaging of bidirectional guided waves enables synchronous probing of mechanical anisotropy, local blood pressure, and stress in arteries [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Arterial biomechanical indicators have long been recognized as fundamental contributors to the physiology and pathology of cardiovascular systems. Probing the multiple biomechanical parameters of arteries simultaneously at different time points within one cardiac cycle is of great importance but remains challenging.
