Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Four‐dimensional immuno‐mechanobiomaterials: Dynamic material cues that program host response to prevent fibrosis and enable regeneration

VIEW, EarlyView.
Dynamic immuno‐mechanobiomaterials with time‐programmed mechanical adaptation orchestrate host responses through precise mechanotransduction and immune‐stromal regulation. These adaptive biomaterials minimize mechanical mismatch, attenuate the forign dy response and fibrosis, promote angiogenesis and controlled extracellular matrix remodeling, and ...

Validation of Aortic Blood Flow Simulations During Extracorporeal Circulation Using Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This is the first study assessing in vivo blood flow profiles during extracorporeal circulation (ECC) scenarios. Magnetic resonance imaging data served for the calibration of computational fluid dynamics algorithms, enabling accurate replication of the hemodynamic conditions.

Identification of Autologous Tissue Sources and Optimization of a Treatment Method for Intraoperative Manufacturing of Heart Valve Constructs

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
The use of autologous connective tissue, such as pericardium or peritoneum, combined with controlled tissue treatment, has the potential to result in a more durable heart valve prosthesis than current commercial prostheses. ABSTRACT Introduction Valvular heart disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Current biological and mechanical

NOVEL VASCULAR GRAFTS BASED ON POLYPHENOL-STABILIZED ACELLULAR TISSUE SCAFFOLDS [PDF]

, 2010
The Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) continue to be the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The most common form of CVDs is occlusion of blood flow thus limiting blood supply to specific tissues or organs. Atherosclerosis is a leading cause
