von Willebrand Factor unfolding mediates platelet deposition in a model of high-shear thrombosis [PDF]
Thrombosis under high-shear conditions is mediated by the mechanosensitive blood glycoprotein von Willebrand Factor (vWF). vWF unfolds in response to strong flow gradients and facilitates rapid recruitment of platelets in flowing blood. While the thrombogenic effect of vWF is well recognized, its conformational response in complex flows has largely ...

Mathematical modeling of thrombus formation in idealized models of aortic dissection: Initial findings and potential applications [PDF]
Aortic dissection is a major aortic catastrophe with a high morbidity and mortality risk caused by the formation of a tear in the aortic wall. The development of a second blood filled region defined as the “false lumen” causes highly disturbed flow ...

Left ventricular thrombus [PDF]
A 65-year-old man had recurrent angina pectoris eight years after a Q wave anterior myocardial infarction. He had no signs of heart insufficiency. An electrocardiogram showed a sinus rhythm, QS waves in precordial leads and intraventricular conduction delay. Catheterization demonstrated three-vessel coronary artery disease.
