Triple valve infective endocarditis - a late diagnosis [PDF]
Behcet\u27s disease is a systemic vasculitis of unknown aetiology with cardiac involvement as well as damage to other organs. Whether the sterile valvular inflammation which occurs in this autoimmune disease predisposes to bacterial adhesion and ...

Recent Progress in Mechanoluminescence for Multi‐Dimensional Stress Monitoring
Multi‐dimensional stress visualization technology (0D point detection, 1D linear distribution, 2D planar imaging, 3D volume reconstruction) has become a focus of attention in the field of stress sensing. The transition from “points” to “multi‐dimensional spatial fields” facilitates real‐time, in situ, and high‐resolution visualization of stress ...

Vascular access cannulation in hemodialysis patients: technical approach
Introduction: The vascular access cannulation technique varies among clinics, and guidelines on vascular access give little importance to cannulation techniques. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cannulation technique and to determine which

Semi-analytical Study of Blood Flow through a Prosthesis Inserted in an Affected Blood Vessel
In this work, a two dimensional model of the flow is considered, with focus on effects of the nonlinearity coefficient of elasticity, variation of the radius and the Young modulus. The model described characterizes the blood flow consecutively in aneurysms, stenoses and prostheses.

Assessment of prosthetic aortic valve performance by magnetic resonance velocity imaging [PDF]
Objectives: Magnetic resonance (MRI) velocity mapping was used to evaluate non-invasively the flow profiles of the ascending aorta in normal volunteers and in patients with an aortic (mechanical) valve prosthesis.

Endothelialization of Intravascular Stents [PDF]
Wide clinical application of intravascular stenting devices is currently limited by occlusion or intraluminal narrowing caused by thrombosis and neointimal thickening in a considerable percentage of implantations.

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.
