Response to allopurinol and febuxostat according to the fractional excretion of urate in men with gout

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of urate (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations. We further evaluated its potential influence

Mechanical properties of human coronary arteries

open access: yes2010 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2010
The lack of reliable mechanical data on coronary arteries and, more specifically, on their wall strength hampers the application of numerical models and simulations to vascular problems, and precludes physicians from knowing in advance the response of ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Additively Manufactured Diamond for Energy Scavenging and Wireless Power Transfer in Implantable Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing is expanding beyond mechanical prosthetics into microelectronic implants. This work presents a diamond‐titanium hybrid that enables wireless power transfer, localized heating, and flow sensing. The use of additive manufacturing combined with the biocompatibility of the diamond‐titanium hybrid material paves the way toward new ...

Successful surgical management of atherosclerotic dual right coronary artery with short-term follow-up

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2015
Congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries are present in 0.2–1.4% of the general population. Dual right coronary artery is one of the rarest congenital anomalies (0.01%) of the coronary arteries.

Coronary Artery Centerline Extraction in Cardiac CT Angiography Using a CNN-Based Orientation Classifier

open access: yes, 2018
Coronary artery centerline extraction in cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) images is a prerequisite for evaluation of stenoses and atherosclerotic plaque. We propose an algorithm that extracts coronary artery centerlines in CCTA using a convolutional neural ...

Anatomical variants and coronary anomalies detected by dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography in North-eastern Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: Congenital coronary anomalies are uncommon, with an incidence ranging from 0.17% in autopsy cases to 1.2% in angiographically evaluated cases. The recent development of dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) allows ...
