Flexible PCL tube scaffolds by winding of micro-extruded filaments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An important requirement for tissue engineering scaffolds is matching of the functional me-chanical properties to their natural tissue counterpart. Specifically for arteries this comprises the elastic re-sponse of the vessel wall to blood pressure. Human

Quantifying perception of nonlinear elastic tissue models using multidimensional scaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Simplified soft tissue models used in surgical simulations cannot perfectly reproduce all material behaviors. In particular, many tissues exhibit the Poynting effect, which results in normal forces during shearing of tissue and is only observed in ...

Successful treatment of a multifocal comminuted open fracture of humerus with severe soft tissue defect: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Choosing the appropriate treatment approach for a multifocal comminuted open fracture of humerus with severe soft tissue defect is a challenging issue, which could be interesting for every orthopedic surgeon especially for those working in the

Fibulin-4 is essential for maintaining arterial wall integrity in conduit but not muscular arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in fibulin-4 (FBLN4) lead to autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 1B (ARCL1B), a multisystem disorder characterized by significant cardiovascular abnormalities, including abnormal elastin assembly, arterial ...

Hyperplasia of elastic tissue in hepatic schistosomal fibrosis

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991
Elastic tissue hyperplasia, revealed by means of histological, immunocytochemical and ultrastructural methods, appeared as a prominent change in surgical liver biopsies taken from 61 patients with schistosomal periportal and septal fibrosis.

Deep Learning for High Speed Optical Coherence Elastography

open access: yes, 2020
Mechanical properties of tissue provide valuable information for identifying lesions. One approach to obtain quantitative estimates of elastic properties is shear wave elastography with optical coherence elastography (OCE).

Can a continuous mineral foam explain the stiffening of aged bone tissue? A micromechanical approach to mineral fusion in musculoskeletal tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent experimental data revealed a stiffening of aged cortical bone tissue, which could not be explained by common multiscale elastic material models.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum and reflectance confocal microscopy: report of two affected young sisters

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2015
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare inherited multisystem disorder that mainly affects skin, eyes and cardiovascular system. The associated clinical signs are due to progressive calcification of elastic fibres and blood vessels, despite normal ...

In vitro elastic cartilage reconstruction using human auricular perichondrial chondroprogenitor cell–derived micro 3D spheroids

open access: yesJournal of Tissue Engineering, 2022
Morphologically stable scaffold-free elastic cartilage tissue is crucial for treating external ear abnormalities. However, establishing adequate mechanical strength is challenging, owing to the difficulty of achieving chondrogenic differentiation in ...

Inference of internal stress in a cell monolayer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We combine traction force data with Bayesian inversion to obtain an absolute estimate of the internal stress field of a cell monolayer. The method, Bayesian inversion stress microscopy (BISM), is validated using numerical simulations performed in a wide ...
