Hydrogel Microtube Drug Carrier for Catheter‐Based Intravascular Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This paper proposes hydrogel microtube carriers composed of barium alginate gel, enabling long‐term vascular retention without interrupting blood flow. Intravascular treatments have long been attracting attention for therapeutic efficacy, yet practical delivery methods remained unestablished.

Difference in Transcranial Doppler Velocity and Patient Age between Proximal and Distal Middle Cerebral Artery Vasospasms after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Cerebrovascular Diseases Extra, 2016
Background: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is used to monitor cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), but its diagnostic ability is reported to be limited.

Additive Manufacturing of Patient‐Specific Intracranial Aneurysm Cell Culture Models

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Patient‐specific intracranial aneurysm models were fabricated using chocolate moulding, 3D printed water‐soluble cores, and direct resin 3D printing. Moulding PDMS around sacrificial cores made of chocolate or 3D printed water‐soluble resin yielded accurate, expandable, and endothelializable models that outperformed resin‐based approaches.

Imaging findings and cerebral perfusion in arterial ischemic stroke due to transient cerebral arteriopathy in children [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2012
We report the case of a 4-year-old female child who developed an arterial ischemic stroke in the left middle cerebral artery territory, due to a proximal stenosis of the supraclinoid internal carotid artery, most probably related to transient cerebral ...

Strategic Design of Soft Actuators in Translational Medical Robotics for Human‐Centered Healthcare

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robotics enables biocompatible, compliant medical devices, but clinical translation requires design‐driven engineering beyond materials. This perspective reviews implantable, surgical, and wearable systems by actuation mechanism, highlighting how optimized architectures and integration improve mechanical interfacing, adaptability, and durability ...

Subarachnoid Hemorrhage of Unknown Origin During Pregnancy: Case Report

Gynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2007
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a stroke subtype resulting from leakage of blood. The incidence of SAH during pregnancy varies from 1 to 2 per 10000 pregnancies. The most frequent (%85) cause of SAH is a ruptured cerebral aneurysm.

Association of tetralogy of Fallot with multiple variations of the cerebral arteries diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
Tetralogy of Fallot very rarely manifests with variations of the cerebral arteries, but we detected an extremely rare combination comprising 3 such variants –bilateral carotid–anterior cerebral arteries anastomoses, the vertebral–anterior inferior ...
