Stopping a Multilayered Co‐Axial Flow in a 3D Printed Microchannel with Cascaded Nozzles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A microfluidic device with cascaded nozzles is 3D‐printed using two‐photon polymerization. Its microchannel, featuring integrated nozzles, sculpts multilayered co‐axial flows, enabling independent regulation of four co‐flowing streams to achieve variable layer thicknesses.

Comparative study of wall shear stress at the ascending aorta for different mechanical heart valve prostheses [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
An experimental study is reported which investigates the wall shear stress (WSS) distribution in a transparent model of the human aorta comparing a bileaflet mechanical heart valve (BMHV) with a trileaflet mechanical heart valve (TMHV) in physiological pulsatile flow.

Aortic valve cusp repair does not affect durability of modified aortic valve reimplantation for tricuspid aortic valvesCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Open, 2023
Objective: During aortic valve reimplantation, cusp repair may be needed to produce a competent valve. We investigated whether the need for aortic valve cusp repair affects aortic valve reimplantation durability.

Eigenhearts for diagnosis of congestive heart failure (CHF) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Common cardiac diseases such as cardio-myopathy, coronary artery diseases, and valve diseases, result in abnormal myocardial movement, which could eventually lead to heart failure, also called congestive heart failure (CHF). CHF is a disease in which the

Loss of Axin2 results in impaired heart valve maturation and subsequent myxomatous valve disease

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2017
Aims Myxomatous valve disease (MVD) is the most common aetiology of primary mitral regurgitation. Recent studies suggest that defects in heart valve development can lead to heart valve disease in adults.
