Comparison of a Miniaturized Implantable Two‐Stage Rotodynamic Blood Pump to Equivalent Single‐Stage Concepts

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the potential of a multistage pump design to enhance hemocompatibility in left ventricular assist devices. We found that the two‐stage concept offers favorable hemolysis measures compared to single‐stage designs, as the reduction in peak shear stresses outweighs the disadvantage associated with prolonged residence time ...

Diaphragm‐specific effects of L‐citrulline in mdx mice highlight its potential as adjuvant of standard therapy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose The absence of the protein dystrophin in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) leads to progressive muscle weakness, failing regeneration and deregulation of nitric oxide (NO) signalling. We focused on L‐citrulline, a precursor of L‐arginine, required for NO production in muscle, which is reduced in dystrophic mdx muscle ...

An investigation of the functional significance of the pyramidalis muscle using shear wave elastography

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pyramidalis (Py) is a small triangular‐shaped anterior abdominal wall muscle, the function of which remains uncertain. We used shear wave elastography to test the hypothesis that Py contributes to stiffness of the linea alba. Our results indicate that Py contraction results in a significant increase in LA stiffness, supporting the previously ...

Implant stability quotient and osteogenic process in dental implant sites prepared using piezoelectric technique: A study in minipigs

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Few studies have explored the bone response in dental implant sites prepared using a piezoelectric device, indicating moderate effectiveness in enhancing secondary stability and osteogenesis. This study seeks to expand our understanding of the changes in biological, clinical, and radiographic parameters, during the initial phases of ...

In Vitro Aligners Force Analysis in the Maxillary Arch During En‐Masse Retraction With Different Attachment Positions

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to analyse the three‐dimensional forces acting on maxillary teeth with aligners activation of en‐masse retraction based on the different attachment positions in vitro. Methods Three groups were designed for the same 0.25 mm en‐masse retraction forces with three different attachment positions.
