Closed External End Double J Catheter as a Nephrostent in Pyeloplasty for Infants with Uretero-Pelvic Junction Obstruction [PDF]
Uretero-Pelvic Junction Obstruction (UPJO) is a common congenitalanomaly that may need pyeloplasty to prevent renalfunction deterioration. The purpose of this study was to describea modified use of jj stent catheter in pyeloplasty for infantwith UPJO.

Hemodynamics of Stent Implantation Procedures in Coronary Bifurcations: an in vitro study [PDF]
Stent implantation in coronary bifurcations presents unique challenges and currently there is no universally accepted stent deployment approach. Despite clinical and computational studies, to date, the effect of each stent implantation method on the coronary artery hemodynamics is not well understood.

A Bistable Assistive Device for Wireless Control of a Dysfunctional Bladder Under Minimal Stress
This paper presents a wireless system designed to restore bladder function in patients with an underactive bladder (UAB). The system features a multilayered structure, combining a pre‐shaped restoration layer with a spring‐based actuator. The system delivers 95–100% voiding efficiency within a 10‐s activation while ensuring minimal stress on the ...

Bioresorbable Scaffold Visualization in IVOCT Images Using CNNs and Weakly Supervised Localization [PDF]
Bioresorbable scaffolds have become a popular choice for treatment of coronary heart disease, replacing traditional metal stents. Often, intravascular optical coherence tomography is used to assess potential malapposition after implantation and for follow-up examinations later on.
