Well-balanced finite difference WENO schemes for the blood flow model [PDF]

, 2016
The blood flow model maintains the steady state solutions, in which the flux gradients are non-zero but exactly balanced by the source term. In this paper, we design high order finite difference weighted non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes to this model with ...

The neural tourniquet [PDF]

Bioelectronic Medicine, 2014
Bioelectronic medicine aims to understand and harness the beneficial effects of the nervous system and neural circuits to diagnose, treat and prevent disease. For example, targeted electrical stimulation devices can recapitulate endogenous neural signaling and control debilitating symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy.

Reduced postoperative inflammation and blood loss after robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental compared with total knee arthroplasty: A propensity score‐matched analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (raUKA) offers potential advantages over robotic arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA), but its biological benefits remain unclear. Superior early recovery after raUKA may be related to reduced systemic inflammation and blood loss.

Epigenetic mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in chronic pain‐associated neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

Needle tenoscopy of the digital flexor tendon sheath in four horses

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Tenoscopy, performed under general anaesthesia (GA), remains the gold standard diagnostic modality for assessment of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS). A cadaver study described needle tenoscopy of the DFTS in a standing horse model, but the procedure has not been reported in clinical cases.

Classification of Platelet‐Activating Anti‐Platelet Factor 4 Disorders

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The prototypic anti‐platelet factor 4 (PF4) disorder—heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis (HITT)—features immunoglobulin G (IgG) class antibodies that activate platelets, monocytes, and neutrophils in a mainly heparin‐dependent fashion via Fcγ receptor‐dependent cellular activation.

Association of tourniquet use on short-term implant survival after primary total knee arthroplasty: a study of 24,249 knees from the Norwegian Arthroplasty Register

Acta Orthopaedica
Background and purpose: Tourniquet use in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) provides a bloodless surgical field, which may lead to a better cementation but reduced function and increased pain. We aimed to investigate the effect of a tourniquet during TKA on

Tourniquet-induced tissue hypoxia characterized by near-infrared spectroscopy during ankle surgery: an observational study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Pneumatic tourniquet inflation during extremity surgery leads to profound and prolonged tissue ischemia. Its effect on tissue oxygenation is inadequately studied.
