Analysis of the Navigation of Magnetic Microrobots through Cerebral Bifurcations for Targeted Drug Delivery

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The motion of magnetic microrobots through cerebral bifurcations depends on various parameters such as the microrobots size, the blood velocity, and the imposed magnetic field gradients, among others. This work presents an in‐depth analysis of the effects of these parameters and equations predicting the required magnetic gradients based on the ...

A Soft‐Tip Hydraulically Steerable Catheter for Enhanced Flexibility and Safety in Vascular Interventions

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hydraulically steerable catheter with a soft tip in vascular procedures. The steering soft tip achieves a minimal diameter of 2.6 mm and supports a 180° bend. Real‐time shape and position tracking, facilitated by segmentation and endpoint detection techniques, improves navigation.

Management of Cardiovascular Health Issues in Turner Syndrome: Expert Insights and Expanded Recommendations From the 2024 Guideline Development Team

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

Rapid severe hypertension and organ damage in two‐kidney two‐clip rats produced by different sizes of clips

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Blood pressure increases immediately when the 2K2C rats (made with 0.3, 0.25, and 0.2 mm U‐shaped clips) regain consciousness from anesthesia. 100% of the rats develop hypertension on the day of 2K2C surgery. Blood pressure continues to rise, resulting in severe hypertension and organ damage to the brain, heart, aorta, and kidneys at 1, 2, 4, and 6 ...

Animal models of lung cancer: Phenotypic comparison of different animal models of lung cancer and their application in the study of mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Grafts used to construct lung cancer animal models come from various sources, primarily cell lines, patient‐derived tumor tissues, and circulating tumor cells. Based on the sources of grafts and research objectives, lung cancer animal models can be categorized into several types: chemical‐induced models, orthotopic transplantation models, heterotopic ...

Long‐term immunosuppression of rabbits through oral tacrolimus administration

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Oral gavage of rabbits with 1.5 mg/kg/d of tacrolimus allows for an efficient long‐term (1 year) immunosuppression with minimal side effects and no loss of animals. lmmunosuppressed rabbits are a convenient animal model to investigate the long‐term efficacy of human allografts in vivo.

SOX6 enhances vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching and elevates blood pressure by activating autophagy

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sox6 expression is elevated in hypertensive conditions and promotes vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching through autophagy activation. Using gain‐ and loss‐of‐function approaches both in vitro and in vivo, we demonstrate that Sox6 regulates blood pressure and vascular remodeling, highlighting its potential as a novel therapeutic target for ...

Therapeutic targeting of myeloid cells in liver fibrosis: Mechanisms and clinical prospects

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the origin, recruitment, and differentiation regulation mechanisms of myeloid cells in driving hepatic fibrosis progression. By targeting these three critical phases, potential therapeutic strategies for liver fibrosis can be explored.

Stent Porosity Efficiency in Treating Wide-Neck Saccular Renal Artery Aneurysm

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Renal arteries are the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys. Renal arteries are the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys. Renal artery aneurysm (RAA) is the second most common visceral aneurysm to occur, which accounts for 22% of the visceral ...
