Comparison of a Miniaturized Implantable Two‐Stage Rotodynamic Blood Pump to Equivalent Single‐Stage Concepts

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the potential of a multistage pump design to enhance hemocompatibility in left ventricular assist devices. We found that the two‐stage concept offers favorable hemolysis measures compared to single‐stage designs, as the reduction in peak shear stresses outweighs the disadvantage associated with prolonged residence time ...

Shaping the Flow: Impact of Blade Shape on Performance and Hemocompatibility in Rotodynamic Blood Pumps

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Blade shapes (leading‐edge geometry and thickness) in rotodynamic blood pumps were systematically evaluated. Thinner blades improve pump efficiency by reducing blockage effects, while neither blade thickness nor leading‐edge geometry shows clear hemocompatibility benefits. Overall, blade shape has a limited impact on hemocompatibility, indicating it is

Modern Fire Safety Protocols in the Archeological Contexts: A New Tool for Studying the Health and Behavioral Effects of Fire Use in Semi‐Closed Spaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

Tubes or Ribbons? Comparing Texture‐space Visualization for Multivariate Line Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Multivariate line data is critical for analyzing flow fields, agent systems, and dynamic trajectories. Embedding secondary variables along spatial paths using surface‐based primitives such as ribbons and circular tubes introduces challenges related to perspective, scale, and distortion.

Randomised Controlled Multicentre Trial to Investigate the Effectiveness of a Mobile Artificial Intelligence Solution for Diabetes Adapted Care: The MELISSA Trial Protocol

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Achieving optimal glycaemic control remains a burden for many people with diabetes on intensive insulin treatment. The MELISSA trial aims to clinically validate the artificial intelligence (AI)‐based MELISSA system to support people with Type 1 diabetes on multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) with personalised insulin dose ...

Safer Access With Fewer Transfusions: Revisiting Platelet Thresholds in Pediatric Central Venous Catheterization

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Central venous catheters (CVCs) are essential in pediatric hematology‐oncology, for the administration of chemotherapy and supportive therapy. Thrombocytopenia increases the risk of bleeding and current guidelines recommend prophylactic platelet transfusions below 40–50 × 109/L, though evidence is limited and transfusions entail ...
