During the surgery, the woman's heart was implanted with tiny patches of heart muscle cells, which had been grown from stem cells in a lab. These 10 patches, each comprised of about 400 million ...

Introduction: CT perfusion maps (CTP) can estimate the ischemic core in acute ischemic stroke based on distinctive cerebral blood flow (CBF) thresholds. However, metabolic factors beyond perfusion ...

A new method here seems to be literally patching up a patient’s heart with healthy heart tissue, per the first human study results by [Ahmad-Fawad Jebran] et al. as published in Nature (as well ...

Relative cerebral blood flow was decreased during the course of MCAO, indicating ischemia status. In ipsilateral cerebral cortex tissue, phosphorylated (Ser1177) endothelial nitric oxide synthase ...

Jan. 30, 2025 — People who regularly floss their teeth (one or more times per week) may lower their risk of stroke caused by a blood clot traveling from the heart and a stroke associated with an ...

Although obstructive CAD or microvascular dysfunction may be present, the link between ischaemia and angina is not clearcut. The ‘ischaemic threshold’ (the heart rate-blood pressure product at the ...

Innovative muscle patches derived from stem cells demonstrate efficacy in heart repair, improving function in primates and a ...

A C++ library for computational biology and physiology problems, focussing on well-tested, modular and extensible code for continuum (PDE) and cell/agent-based simulations.

The patches, which are about the size of a business card, are similar to heart tissue from children aged between four and eight years old. One of the patches, grown in the lab from stem cells ...

A blood test may rapidly distinguish brain bleeds from clot-caused strokes, even before people with stroke symptoms reach the ...

According to a doctor, when a person suffers from metabolically healthy obesity, most of the fat accumulates in the hips and ...
