Flexible PCL tube scaffolds by winding of micro-extruded filaments [PDF]
, 2011 An important requirement for tissue engineering scaffolds is matching of the functional me-chanical properties to their natural tissue counterpart. Specifically for arteries this comprises the elastic re-sponse of the vessel wall to blood pressure. Human

Early changes in diaphragmatic function evaluated using ultrasound in cardiac surgery patients: a cohort study. [PDF]
, 2020 Little is known about the evolution of diaphragmatic function in the early post-cardiac surgery period. The main purpose of this work is to describe its evolution using ultrasound measurements of muscular excursion and thickening fraction (TF).

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive condition with high morbidity and mortality, largely owing to right ventricular (RV) failure resulting from maladaptive remodeling. Our study provides strong evidence in support of a critical, detrimental role for AXL as a previously unrecognized determinant driving RV fibrotic pathology in PH.
