Xenotransplantation is viewed as the most promising way to overcome the problems of shortage of donor organ. It can be exploited from rapidly expanding capabilities in genetic engineering for xenotransplantation. The maj...

Abstract Inflammatory diseases remain a major clinical challenge due to their complex pathologies and the limitations of current anti-inflammatory therapies. Conventional treatments, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammato...

Los continuos avances en el conocimiento de la biología molecular han permitido un gran progreso de la ciencia, mediante la modificación genética tanto de virus, bacterias como de organismos superiores. Estos procedim...

An accurate intraoperative assessment of tissue perfusion in digestive surgery is critical to prevent complications such as anastomotic leakage, an event in which a surgical connection between organs fails to heal proper...

This study reports the fabrication and evaluation of layered scaffolds based on polylactide/polycaprolactone (PLPC) matrices for osteochondral-inspired designs. Bilayer architectures comprised a bone-facing layer with mi...

Abstract This paper presents a solution for sphere-shaped heterogeneities applied to the bioimpedance test. Such an approach has applicability for electrical impedance tomography, considering the impedance response for e...

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is expected to solve the organ shortage problem. However, owing to the accuracy limitations, it is difficult for the current bioprinting technology to achieve an accura...

Abstract Background Enchondromas (EC) present cartilaginous tumors that are difficult to differentiate from their intermediate counterpart, atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACT). Histologically, tumor distinction of these ...

We present a magnetically actuated vocal fold–phantom phonation system capable of reproducing longitudinal tension modulation to mimic cricothyroid (CT) and thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle activation. We first formulat...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in incidence among all malignancies and is highly lethal in advanced stages. Combination chemotherapy regimens based on 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) remain the mainstay of colorectal cancer t...

Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising nanomaterials with applications in biomedicine, including drug delivery and biosensing, due to their stability, biocompatibility, and ease of surface modification. However, ...

Abstract Titanium and its alloys have been widely applied in many biomedical fields because of its excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and good biocompatibility. However, problems such as rejection, she...

Abstract Visualization of three-dimensional image stacks from serial sectioned histology or from other modalities poses a challenge, and solutions are often limited to projections or to rotated views of the 3D stacks. He...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The etiology of ischemic stroke affects prognosis, outcome, and management. Trials of therapies for patients with acute stroke should include measurements of responses as influenced by subtype of ...

Feature selection is an important problem for pattern classification systems. We study how to select good features according to the maximal statistical dependency criterion based on mutual information. Because of the dif...

Epoxy embedding methods of Glauert and Kushida have been modified so as to yield rapid, reproducible, and convenient embedding methods for electron microscopy. The sections are robust and tissue damage is less than with ...

A technique called optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been developed for noninvasive cross-sectional imaging in biological systems. OCT uses low-coherence interferometry to produce a two-dimensional image of optical ...
