Aims While angiotensin II-infused mice are the most popular model for preclinical aneurysm research, representative data on incidence, severity, and mortality of dissecting abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) have never been established, and the influence of ...
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a local expansion of the abdominal aorta wall caused by a complex multifactorial maladaptive vascular remodeling. Despite recent advances in the management of cardiovascular diseases, there currently is no established dru ...
Background Implantation of self-expanding stents from the parent artery into the sac of a bifurcation aneurysm is regularly used to facilitate endovascular coil occlusion with the so-called waffle cone technique (WCT). Self-expanding aneurysm bridging sten ...
Objective Several ultrasound-based methods are currently used to assess aortic diameter, circumferential strain and stiffness in mice, but none of them is flawless and a gold standard is lacking. We aimed to assess the validity and sensitivity of these met ...
The monitoring of hemodynamic parameters is crucial for optimal patient management and treatment. However, established methods are often invasive and possibly inapplicable to sensitive age groups. Novel, non-invasive techniques have the potential to transf ...
TORCH is an innovative high-precision time-of-flight system to provide particle identification in the difficult intermediate momentum region up to 10 GeV/c, It is also suitable for large-area applications. The detector provides a time-of-flight measurement ...
Semantic memory impairment is classically associated with lesion of the anterior temporal lobe. We report the case of a patient with severe semantic knowledge impairment and anterograde amnesia after bilateral ischemic lesion of the fornix and of the basal ...
Timing Of internally Reflected CHerenkov photons (TORCH) is a time detector proposed for particle identification at low momentum. Charged particles passing through a plane of quartz produce Cherenkov light, some of which is trapped within the plane by tota ...
BackgroundAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a complex degenerative disease, which leads to morbidity and mortality in a large portion of the elderly population. Current treatment options for AAA are quite limited as there is no proven indication for pharm ...
This paper describes the accurate characterization of the reflection coefficients of a multilayered reflectarray element by means of artificial neural networks. The procedure has been tested with different RA elements related to actual specifications. Up t ...
