An Overview of Sport Participation and Exercise Prescription in Mitral Valve Disease
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023 The incidence of heart valve disease (HVD) has been rising over the last few decades, mainly due to the increasing average age of the general population, and mitral valve (MV) disease is the second most prevalent HVD after calcific aortic stenosis, but ...

Flow‐Induced Vascular Remodeling on‐Chip: Implications for Anti‐VEGF Therapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Flow‐induced vascular remodeling plays a critical role in network stabilization and function. Using a vasculature‐on‐chip system, this study reveals how physiological VEGF levels and flow affect vascular remodeling and provides insights into tumor vessel normalization.
