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

Updated management of malignant biliary tract tumors: an illustrative review [PDF]
, 2016 The management of malignant biliary tumors (MBTs) is complex and requires a multidisciplinary approach. Guidelines and methods of staging for biliary tumors have recently been released by main international societies, altering the clinical and radiologic

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A tunable bifunctional surface is developed by combining Fc‐binding peptides and RGD motifs to present oriented antibodies alongside integrin‐mediated signaling. The platform selectively captures endothelial colony‐forming cells while promoting their adhesion and proliferation.

Endoscopic Stenting for Malignant Dysphagia in Patients with Esophageal Cancer
Current Oncology, 2023 Malignant dysphagia is a common problem in patients with esophageal cancer. Endoscopic stenting can resolve dysphagia caused by malignant stricture; however, controversy exists regarding the use of esophageal stenting for the treatment of malignant ...

Patient-specific simulation of stent-graft deployment within an abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]
, 2013 In this study, finite element analysis is used to simulate the surgical deployment procedure of a bifurcated stent-graft on a real patient's arterial geometry. The stent-graft is modeled using realistic constitutive properties for both the stent and most

Inhibition of in-stent stenosis by oral administration of bindarit in porcine coronary arteries [PDF]
, 2011 <p><b>Objective:</b> We have previously demonstrated that bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs), is effective in reducing neointimal formation in rodent models of vascular injury by reducing smooth ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Deployable medical devices typically need external stimuli to trigger deployment. However, external stimuli are difficult to supply within tissues. Here, we describe a strategy to deploy small‐scale structures into soft tissues after insertion without the need for any stimulus. We demonstrate deployment within a tissue phantom.
