Bone mineral density and coronary atherosclerosis

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2011
The association between low bone mineral density (BMD) and atherosclerosis is still unknown. In this study BMD assessed in patients with and without coronary artery atherosclerosis is determined by angiography.A total number of 123 consecutive patients referred for coronary angiography were evaluated by dual X-ray absorptiometry.

From Nature to Engineering: Mortar Volume and Interfacial Mechanics in Bioinspired Ceramics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural armors like nacre, this study explores how varying the volume fraction of the soft mortar layer impacts the interfacial strength and toughness of bioinspired ceramics. Experimental and computational analysis reveals that higher mortar volumes increase energy dissipation but reduce interfacial stiffness, offering insights for ...
