Porous microspheres have the potential for use as injectable bone fillers to obviate the need for open surgery. Successful bone fillers must be able to support vascularisation since tissue engineering scaffolds often cease functioning soon ...
Modelling ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in vitro using metabolically matured induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes [0.03%]

Coronary intervention following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the treatment of choice for reducing cardiomyocyte death but paradoxically leads to reperfusion injury. Pharmacological post-conditioning is an attractive...
Computational study of aortic hemodynamics for patients with an abnormal aortic valve: The importance of secondary flow at the ascending aorta inlet [0.03%]
主动脉瓣异常患者的主动脉血流动力学的数值研究:升主动脉入口处二次流的重要性
