A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...

Congenital Absence of Superior Vena Cava with no Manifestation of Superior Vena Cava Syndrome [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2016
Total absence of superior vena cava (SVC) is a very rare anomaly, and the patient usually suffers from SVC syndrome or conduction disturbances. We report an asymptomatic 27 year-old male, with complete absence of SVC. Transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography demonstrated the absence of SVC and other congenital cardiac anomalies, but the ...

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Engineering Neutrophil Vesicles for Synergistic Protection against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury after Lung Transplant

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered neutrophil‐derived vesicles (SOD2‐Fer‐1@CVs) co‐delivering antioxidant and ferroptosis‐inhibitory agents enable inflammation‐targeted, ROS‐responsive therapy for ischemia–reperfusion injury in lung transplantation. Synergizing with ex vivo lung perfusion, this strategy alleviates oxidative stress and inflammation, restores vascular integrity,
