Microstructured Thin Film Nitinol for a Neurovascular Flow-Diverter [PDF]
A cerebral aneurysm occurs as a result of a weakened blood vessel, which allows blood to flow into a sac or a ballooned section. Recent advancement shows that a new device, ‘flow-diverter’, can divert blood flow away from the aneurysm sac.

Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is showing an increasing trend in young adults. Cigarette smoking has been shown to be a major cause of premature CAD. Previous studies have also shown that hyperuricemia (HUA) is associated with CAD; however, the

Video-rate 3D Particle Tracking with Extended Depth-of-field in Thick Biological Samples [PDF]
We present a single-aperture 3D particle localisation and tracking technique with a vastly increased depth-of-field without compromising optical resolution and throughput. Flow measurements in a FEP capillary and a zebrafish blood vessel are demonstrated

Significance This work provides evidence that the protein tau induces changes in blood vessels distinct from the effects of amyloid beta on vasculature and indicates a previously unknown pathway by which pathological tau may accelerate cognitive decline ...

Serum Uric Acid and Hyperuricemia Associate with Coronary Artery Disease among Postmenopausal Women
Background: Serum uric acid (SUA) levels has been considered a possible risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) for many years. Since SUA levels are greatly affected by medications, diet, and metabolism, the association between SUA and CAD has been

von Willebrand factor regulation of blood vessel formation.
Several important physiological processes, from permeability to inflammation to hemostasis, take place at the vessel wall and are regulated by endothelial cells (ECs). Thus, proteins that have been identified as regulators of one process are increasingly

Characterization of Laser-Resistant Port Wine Stain Blood Vessels Using In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy. [PDF]
Background and objectivesPort wine stain (PWS) is a congenital vascular malformation of the human skin. Laser is the treatment of choice for PWS. Laser-resistant PWS is one crucial factor accounting for inadequate treatment outcome, which needs to be ...
