Fully automated segmentation and tracking of the intima media thickness in ultrasound video sequences of the common carotid artery [PDF]
—The robust identification and measurement of the intima media thickness (IMT) has a high clinical relevance because it represents one of the most precise predictors used in the assessment of potential future cardiovascular events.

Background and Purpose Intracranial atherosclerosis is one of the most common causes of ischaemic stroke. However, there is a substantial knowledge gap on the development of intracranial atherosclerosis. Intracranial arteries are characterized by an upregulation of tight junctions between endothelial cells, which control endothelial permeability.

Demagnetization factor dependence of energy of thick ferromagnetic films [PDF]
Second order perturbed Heisenberg Hamiltonian was employed to study the variation of energy of ferromagnetic thick films with demagnetization factor. Under the influence of demagnetization factor given by =6.6, the sc(001) film with 10000 layers can be easily oriented in 0.6 radians direction for the values of energy parameters used in this report ...

High resolution ultrasound and arterial wall changes in early atherosclerosis [PDF]
Non-invasive vascular testing evolved initially to meet the needs of the surgeon to identify haemodynamically significant lesions. However, with refinement of techniques and the development of high resolution ultrasound, it has become possible to detect ...

Reduced Atherosclerotic Burden in Subjects With Genetically Determined Low Oxidative Stress [PDF]
Objective-NADPH oxidase, one of the most important enzymes producing reactive oxidant species, is suggested to play a role in experimental atherosclerosis, but its role in human atherosclerosis is still unclear. We hypothesized that a reduced activity of

Schematic representation of generation of 8‐gene‐edited cloned pigs and their verification by pig to non‐human primate kidney xenotransplantation. ABSTRACT Gene‐edited (GE) pig‐to‐human xenotransplantation continues to make breakthroughs, but which kind of gene combination is suitable for organ‐specific transplantation remains unclear.
