Impact of Tissue Damage and Hemodynamics on Restenosis Following Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty: A Patient-Specific Multiscale Model
Ann Biomed Eng. 2024 May 3. doi: 10.1007/s10439-024-03520-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMultiscale agent-based modeling frameworks have recently emerged as promising mechanobiological models to capture the interplay between biomechanical forces, cellular behavior, and molecular pathways underlying restenosis following percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). However, their applications are mainly limited to idealized scenarios. Herein, a multiscale agent-based modeling framework for investigating restenosis following PTA in a patient-specific superficial femoral artery (SFA) is proposed. The framework replicates the...

A biomechanical analysis of novel endovascular implants for aortic valve replacement and ascending aortic repair
This study proposes a novel linked diamond-shaped implant (LD). To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this new implant, finite element simulation models were created to assess the risks of endoleak, migration, and vascular wall rupture under annulus displacement load. After the SZ, SD, and LD implants were grafted in virtual release method, all the implants can cover tear-entry located in the ascending aorta, but space distance (δ) which exposed to blood was 14.5, 13.1, and 7.4 mm, respectively; the maximum areas of contact gap was 76.5, 51.5 and 6.3 mm2; the maximum migration distance (ΔL1) were 1.27, 1.06, and 0....

A numerical investigation of e-scooter-to-vehicle traffic accidents
Comput Methods Biomech Biomed Engin. 2024 May 2:1-5. doi: 10.1080/10255842.2024.2347477. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWithin the past decade, injuries caused by electric scooter (e-scooter) crashes have significantly increased. A common cause of fatalities for e-scooter riders is a collision between a car and an e-scooter. To develop a better understanding of the complex injury mechanisms in these collisions, four crashes between an e-scooter and a family car/sedan and a sports utility vehicle were simulated using finite element models. The vehicles impacted the e-scooter at a speed of 30 km/hr in a perpendicular collisio...

Argyreia nervosa-driven biosynthesis of Cu-Ag bimetallic nanoparticles from plant leaves extract unveils enhanced antibacterial properties
Bioprocess Biosyst Eng. 2024 May 3. doi: 10.1007/s00449-024-03020-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOur study specifically explores the biosynthesis of copper-silver bimetallic nanoparticles (Cu-Ag BMNPs) using Argyreia nervosa (AN) plant leaf green extract as a versatile agent for capping, reducing, and stabilizing. This biosynthesis method is characterized by its simplicity and cost-effectiveness, utilizing silver nitrate (AgNO3) and cupric oxide (CuO) as precursor materials. Our comprehensive characterization of the Cu-Ag BMNPs, employing techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis spectrometry, scanning electron ...
