The effects of higher-order approximations in a fluid-filled elastic tube with stenosis
(Verlag der Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung, 2006)
Treating arteries as thin-walled prestressed elastic tubes with a narrowing (stenosis) and blood as an inviscid fluid we study the propagation of weakly nonlinear waves in such a fluid-filled elastic tube by employing the ...
On the inverse point-source problem of the poisson equation
(Istanbul University, 2005)
In this work a basic inverse heat conduction problem of a simple 2-D model with steady state heat source is taken into view. The physical problem is for a square region with uniform thermophysical properties and a point ...
The use of autologous pericardium for complicated mitral valve annulus
(Asia Publishing Exchange Pte Ltd, 2004)
The study aims to discuss annular repair using the autologous pericardial patch in cases with severe mitral ring calcification and endocarditis during mitral valve replacement. In the study annular reconstruction was applied ...
Voltage-gated sodium channel expression and potentiation of human breast cancer metastasis
(2005)
Purpose: Ion channel activity is involved in several basic cellular behaviors that are integral to metastasis (e.g., proliferation, motility, secretion, and invasion), although their contribution to cancer progression has ...
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting with use of the octopus 2 stabilization system
(2000)
Background: The treatment of coronary artery disease has evolved rapidly over the last two decades. The gold standard of surgical revascularization, the on-pump coronary artery bypass graft, has been challenged by the ...
Brow suspension, a minimally invasive technique in facial rejuvenation
(2002)
People tend to prefer noninvasive or minimally invasive methods of facial rejuvenation, especially when it involves their face, which is the hallmark of a person's identity and impossible to hide. It is widely known that ...
Time flow measurements (TTFM) differ between grafts do transit performed on and off-pump CABG? a comparitive study
(Forum Multimedia Publishing LLC., 2002)
Background: The aim of this study was to compare intraoperative coronary graft flows performed on and off-pump and to evaluate the effects of hemodilution on coronary graft flows in off-pump CABG patients by using TTFM. ...
