Simultaneous Coherent and Displacement Compounding for 2D Noninvasive Carotid Strain Imaging: a Proof of Principle Study [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis results from lipid buildup in artery walls, leading to plaque formation, and is a leading cause of death. Plaque rupture can cause blood clots that might lead to a stroke. Distinguishing plaque types is a challenge, but ultrasound elastography can help by assessing plaque composition based on strain values.

In this paper, we apply a two‐stage solid‐state process with special emphasis on isotactic polypropylene (PP). The oriented thin rod exhibited moduli around 30 GPa and tensile strength greater than 1 GPa. A complex hierarchical structure is proposed to elucidate the evolution of these properties as a function of orientation.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: A critical appraisal
Abstract In spite of intensive research efforts driving spectacular advances in terms of prevention and treatments, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading health burden, accounting for 32% of all deaths (World Health Organization. “Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs).” WHO, February 1, 2017, https://www.who.int/news‐room/fact‐sheets/detail ...
