Engineered vascularized bone grafts [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Clinical protocols utilize bone marrow to seed synthetic and decellularized allogeneic bone grafts for enhancement of scaffold remodeling and fusion. Marrow-derived cytokines induce host neovascularization at the graft surface, but hypoxic conditions cause cell death at the core.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Transplant arteriosclerosis : an experimental study on risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In this thesis, we focused on vascular damage inflicted after transplantation, i.e. injury of the graft vasculature as a result of an alloreactive response of the host against the graft, and everal factors in-fluencing this process.

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

An Investigation of the Constructional Design Components Affecting the Mechanical Response and Cellular Activity of Electrospun Vascular Grafts

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Cardiovascular disease is anticipated to remain the leading cause of death globally. Due to the current problems connected with using autologous arteries for bypass surgery, researchers are developing tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs).

Use of vascular clips to approximate skin grafts on the burned hand

open access: yesBurns Open, 2018
Background: Burns of the hands are common and can lead to significant functional and aesthetic impairment. Traditionally, sutures or staples are used to approximate adjacent skin grafts on the hand; however, we have found that vascular clips are a ...
