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

Heart Valve Mathematical Models [PDF]
Nearly 100,000 heart valve replacements or repairs are performed in the US every year. Mathematical models of heart valves are used to improve artificial valve design and to guide surgeons performing valve-repairing surgeries.

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