Drug-eluting stent in diabetes [PDF]
Sao Paulo Medical Journal, 2007 Long-term evaluation of cardiovascular risk among diabetic patients has shown that the incidence of death due to myocardial infarction among these patients is 20%, whereas among nondiabetic patients it is only 3.5%. Such observations haveled to classifying diabetes as a risk that is equivalent to establi shed coronary artery disease.

A Fast Method of Virtual Stent Graft Deployment for Computer Assisted EVAR [PDF]
Computational Biomechanics for Medicine, Springer International
Publishing, pp.147-169, 2020, 2021 In this paper we introduce a new method simulating stent graft deployment for assisting endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms. The method relies on intraoperative images coupled with mechanical models. A multi-step algorithm has been developed to increase the reliability of simulations.

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1211-1219, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Elderly patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are usually excluded from major trials. Hyopthesis This study sought to assess 1‐year clinical outcomes following PCI with a drug‐eluting stent in patients older than 80 years old with STEMI.

In silico modeling for personalized stenting in aortic coarctation [PDF]
Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2022,
16: 2056-2073, 2022 Stent intervention is a recommended therapy to reduce the pressure gradient and restore blood flow for patients with coarctation of the aorta (CoA). In this work, we developed a framework for personalized stent intervention in CoA using in silico modeling, combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and image-based prediction of the geometry of the ...

Microscale stress-geometry interactions in an additively manufactured NiTi cardiovascular stent: A synchrotron dual imaging tomography and diffraction study [PDF]
Materials Characterization 213 (2024) 114016, 2023 This study explores cardiovascular stents fabricated using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF); an emerging method to offer patient-specific customisable parts. Here, the shape memory alloy NiTi, in a near equiatomic composition, was investigated to deconvolve the material response from macroscopic component effects.

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 AMI with normal ECG and biomarkers of cardiac injury is exceedingly rare. The clinical manifestations of AMI were complex and varied, especially that the patients with atypical AMI were increasing in clinical practice. Caution should be exercised to exclude AMI in patients with chest pain and both normal ECG and biomarkers of cardiac injury.
