Current Approaches and Challenges in Advanced Oxidation Processes for Nanoplastic Degradation
This review explores recent progress in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for the degradation of nanoplastics (NPs) in water. It presents a comparative assessment of key AOP technologies and identifies current limitations in analytical methods and treatment efficiency.

Fully automated segmentation and tracking of the intima media thickness in ultrasound video sequences of the common carotid artery [PDF]
—The robust identification and measurement of the intima media thickness (IMT) has a high clinical relevance because it represents one of the most precise predictors used in the assessment of potential future cardiovascular events.

PERIPHERAL ARTERY DISEASE, SYMPTOMS AND CAROTID ARTERY DISEASE
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients are at an increased risk of disease in other vascular territories. The relationship between PAD and carotid artery disease is unknown. A prospective database was used of over 3.5 million U.S.

The motion of magnetic microrobots through cerebral bifurcations depends on various parameters such as the microrobots size, the blood velocity, and the imposed magnetic field gradients, among others. This work presents an in‐depth analysis of the effects of these parameters and equations predicting the required magnetic gradients based on the ...

Carotid intima-media thickness as a biomarker of subclinical atherosclerosis.
Intima-media thickness of the carotid artery (CIMT) and its increase is associated with several cardiovascular risk factors and manifest cardiovascular diseases. CIMT is suggested to be an important biomarker of subclinical atherosclerosis.

This study introduces a hydraulically steerable catheter with a soft tip in vascular procedures. The steering soft tip achieves a minimal diameter of 2.6 mm and supports a 180° bend. Real‐time shape and position tracking, facilitated by segmentation and endpoint detection techniques, improves navigation.

Optimal Treatment of Carotid Artery Disease
Extracranial carotid artery disease accounts for approximately 25% of ischemic strokes. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the established gold standard for carotid revascularization, carotid artery angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is continually developing into a safer and more efficacious method of stroke prevention. Embolic protection, improving
