A computational study of viscoelastic blood flow in an arteriovenous fistula [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
A finite element analysis of flows of an Oldroyd-B fluid is developed, to simulate blood flow in an arteriovenous fistula. The model uses a combination of a standard conforming finite element approximation for the momentum equation, and the discontinuous Galerkin method, with upwinding, for the equation governing the evolution of the extra stress.

Hypergraphs Demonstrate Anastomoses During Divergent Integration [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Complex networks can be used to analyze structures and systems in the embryo. Not only can we characterize growth and the emergence of form, but also differentiation. The process of differentiation from precursor cell populations to distinct functional tissues is of particular interest.

Urologic Fistulas in Czech Women With Gynaecologic Malignancies

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction In developed countries, urologic fistulas arise mainly from malignancies, radiotherapy, or surgical trauma. Hysterectomy and radiation therapy are both critical components of the treatment of women with cancers. Urologic fistulas significantly reduce the quality of life of cancer patients, and may result in delays or even refusal ...

A rare case of iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistula arising from a forgotten gauze strip during Caesarean section

open access: yesUrology Case Reports, 2020
The incidence of iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistulas in women after gynecological surgery is 82%, as hysterectomy being the most common cause for them - 88%. We presented a rare case of iatrogenic vesicovaginal fistula resulting from a series of errors and

U-Net-and-a-half: Convolutional network for biomedical image segmentation using multiple expert-driven annotations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Development of deep learning systems for biomedical segmentation often requires access to expert-driven, manually annotated datasets. If more than a single expert is involved in the annotation of the same images, then the inter-expert agreement is not necessarily perfect, and no single expert annotation can precisely capture the so-called ground truth ...
