This study develops a helical path tortuosity model with formation‐specific parameterization to address the critical limitation of existing tortuosity models that typically excel within narrow permeability ranges. The model decomposes total tortuosity into three physically meaningful components: geometric tortuosity arising from flow path winding ...

Clinical application specifications for ulcer oil in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers
Ulcer oil is suitable for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers and the prevention of diabetic high‐risk feet. Compared to contemporary therapeutic modalities, ulcer oil exhibits notable advantages for severe ischemic diabetic foot conditions, as well as for wounds in the phase of granulation tissue proliferation and epithelial crawling.

Microplate reader analysis of triatomine saliva effect on erythrocyte aggregation
Our hypothesis is that the action of aggregating and disaggregating substances in the blood can be detected and quantified by the Microplate Reader. To ascertain the validity of this hypothesis, we selected two types of blood: one that naturally presents

Abstract Background Peripheral artery disease (PAD) in hemodialysis (HD) patients has a significant social impact due to its prevalence, poor response to standard therapy and dismal prognosis. Rheopheresis is indicated by guidelines for PAD treatment. Materials and Methods Twenty‐five HD patients affected by PAD stage IV Lerichè‐Fontaine and ischemic ...
