A Smart Stent for Monitoring Eventual Restenosis: Computational Fluid Dynamic and Finite Element Analysis in Descending Thoracic Aorta

open access: yesMachines, 2020
Even though scientific studies of smart stents are extensive, current smart stents focus on pressure sensors. This paper presents a novel implantable biocompatible smart stent for monitoring eventual restenosis.

Differentiating the Clinical and Variant Spectrum of Hardikar Syndrome From Other MED12‐Related Developmental Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

Stent-induced hypersensitivity leading to refractory in-stent restenosis: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports
Background Even in the era of new-generation drug-eluting stents, in-stent restenosis remains a common and challenging problem of percutaneous coronary intervention.

Current Management of In-Stent Restenosis [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Circulation Journal, 2018
Despite the advent of the drug-eluting stents (DES) and improved stent design, in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a challenging problem. The currently available options for treatment of ISR include angioplasty alone, repeat stenting with DES or drug-coated balloons.

Identification of Hemodynamically Optimal Coronary Stent Designs Based on Vessel Caliber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Coronary stent design influences local patterns of wall shear stress (WSS) that are associated with neointimal growth, restenosis, and the endothelialization of stent struts.

Radial capacity and hemodynamics evaluation in vitro and implantable feasibility validation in vivo of thinner bioresorbable polymer vascular stents

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A series of in vitro experiments, numerical simulations and in vivo experiments were conducted to jointly evaluate the effects of different thicknesses of bioabsorbable polymer vascular stents on their radial capacity, hemodynamics and in vivo outcomes.

On the role of specific drug binding in modelling arterial eluting stents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we consider drug binding in the arterial wall following delivery by a drug-eluting stent. Whilst it is now generally accepted that a non-linear saturable reversible binding model is required to properly describe the binding process, the ...

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...

Comparative Effectiveness of Peripheral Angioplasty Strategies for 1-Year Restenosis in Lower Limb Artery Disease: A Retrospective Single-Center Analysis

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: Optimal endovascular strategy for lower limb peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains debated, particularly regarding 1-year restenosis. Aim: To evaluate the association between drug-coated balloon (DCB)-based angioplasty and 1-year restenosis
