A multiphysics modeling approach for in-stent restenosis: Theoretical aspects and finite element implementation [PDF]
Development of in silico models are intrinsic in understanding disease progression in soft biological tissues. Within this work, we propose a fully-coupled Lagrangian finite element framework which replicates the process of in-stent restenosis observed post stent implantation in a coronary artery.

The development of hydrogel‐impregnated robust interlocking nano connector (HiRINC) aims to address stent migration by improving tissue adhesion and reducing mechanical mismatch in self‐expandable metallic stents (SEMSs). The network‐like porous layer of HiRINC enhances adhesion and energy dissipation, demonstrates through ex vivo and in vivo tests ...

In-silico Analysis of Hemodynamic Indicators in Idealized Stented Coronary Arteries for Varying Stent Indentation [PDF]
In this work, we investigate the effects of stent indentation on hemodynamic indicators in stented coronary arteries. Our aim is to assess in-silico risk factors for in-stent restenosis (ISR) and thrombosis after stent implantation. The proposed model is applied to an idealized artery with Xience V stent for four indentation percentages and three mesh ...

Computational modeling of in-stent restenosis: Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluation [PDF]
Persistence of the pathology of in-stent restenosis even with the advent of drug-eluting stents warrants the development of highly resolved in silico models. These computational models assist in gaining insights into the transient biochemical and cellular mechanisms involved and thereby optimize the stent implantation parameters.

Mesenchymal stem cells: A novel treatment option for primary sclerosing cholangitis
Abstract Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive liver disease for which there is no effective therapy. Hepatocytes and cholangiocytes from a PSC patient were cocultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to assess in vitro change. A single patient with progressive PSC was treated with 150 million MSCs via direct injection into the common

Current therapy of the right ventricle myocardial infarction [PDF]
Background. Acute myocardial infarction of the right ventricle (AMI-RV) is a separate subgroup within the scope of inferoposterior infarction of the left ventricle. It still represents the population of patients at high risk due to numerous, often hardly
