Uncertainty quantification of a three-dimensional in-stent restenosis model with surrogate modelling [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In-Stent Restenosis is a recurrence of coronary artery narrowing due to vascular injury caused by balloon dilation and stent placement. It may lead to the relapse of angina symptoms or to an acute coronary syndrome. An uncertainty quantification of a model for In-Stent Restenosis with four uncertain parameters (endothelium regeneration time, the ...

Corneal endothelium assessment in specular microscopy images with Fuchs' dystrophy via deep regression of signed distance maps [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Specular microscopy assessment of the human corneal endothelium (CE) in Fuchs' dystrophy is challenging due to the presence of dark image regions called guttae. This paper proposes a UNet-based segmentation approach that requires minimal post-processing and achieves reliable CE morphometric assessment and guttae identification across all degrees of ...

Endothelium in Diseased States [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2014 Endothelium is the endocrine organ essential for maintenance of homeostasis in the entire body. Endothelium operates by a broad spectrum of signaling molecules controlling the contractile state of vascular smooth muscles and cardiomyocytes; long distance intercellular synchronization within the vascular wall; adhesive, coagulant, and rheological ...

Balance of Mechanical Forces Drives Endothelial Gap Formation and May Facilitate Cancer and Immune-Cell Extravasation [PDF]
, 2018 The formation of gaps in the endothelium is a crucial process underlying both cancer and immune cell extravasation, contributing to the functioning of the immune system during infection, the unfavorable development of chronic inflammation and tumor metastasis.

Biology of the Endothelium [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 1997 The endothelium releases factors that control vascular relaxation and contraction, thrombogenesis and fibrinolysis, and platelet activation and inhibition. Maintaining the functional integrity of the endothelium, therefore, is critical for the preservation of blood flow and the prevention of thrombosis.

Lipids and the endothelium [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 1999 The normal endothelium is characterised by the production of a number of molecules which affect the contractile state of adjacent myocytes and the behavior of formed elements within the blood stream, and by the absence of cell surface adhesion molecules. In addition, endothelial cells are important modulators of coagulation and fibrinolysis.

A Multi-Branch Hybrid Transformer Networkfor Corneal Endothelial Cell Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Corneal endothelial cell segmentation plays a vital role inquantifying clinical indicators such as cell density, coefficient of variation,and hexagonality. However, the corneal endothelium's uneven reflectionand the subject's tremor and movement cause blurred cell edges in theimage, which is difficult to segment, and need more details and ...

Inflammatory response and the endothelium [PDF]
Thrombosis Research, 2004 Antiphospholipid-mediated endothelium perturbation plays a role in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS)-associated vasculopathy. Antiphospholipid antibodies activate endothelium both in vitro and in vivo experimental models by inducing a pro-inflammatory/-coagulant phenotype; the antibodies recognize beta2 glycoprotein I (beta2GPI) on human endothelial ...

Ivabradine and endothelium: an update [PDF]
Therapeutic Advances in Cardiovascular Disease, 2020 Ivabradine is a pure heart-rate lowering drug that is nowadays used, accordingly to the last ESC Guidelines, to reduce mortality and heart failure (HF) hospitalization in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction and in symptomatic patiens with inappropriate sinus tachycardia.
