Carotid Artery Stenting

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
Carotid artery stenting (CAS) has achieved clinical equipoise with carotid endarterectomy (CEA), as evidenced by 2 large U.S. randomized clinical trials, multiple pivotal registry trials, and 2 multispecialty guideline documents endorsed by 14 professional societies.

Adjusting for bias introduced by instrumental variable estimation in the Cox Proportional Hazards Model

open access: yes, 2017
Instrumental variable (IV) methods are widely used for estimating average treatment effects in the presence of unmeasured confounders. However, the capability of existing IV procedures, and most notably the two-stage residual inclusion (2SRI) procedure ...

Investigating the flow dynamics in the obstructed and stented ureter by means of a biomimetic artificial model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Double-J stenting is the most common clinical method employed to restore the upper urinary tract drainage, in the presence of a ureteric obstruction. After implant, stents provide an immediate pain relief by decreasing the pressure in the renal pelvis (P)

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Hemodynamic effect of carotid stenting and carotid endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 2006
Carotid angioplasty with stent placement (CAS) may offer an alternative treatment to carotid endarterectomy (CEA). However, in contrast to CEA, which has been shown to normalize impaired cerebral hemodynamics, the effects of CAS remain unclear. To investigate alterations in cerebral hemodynamics, we prospectively studied patients undergoing CAS and ...
