Characterization and assessment of potential microRNAs involved in phosphate-induced aortic calcification
( Wiley-Liss Inc. , 2018 , Article)Medial artery calcification, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease (CKD), is known as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Hyperphosphatemia associated with CKD ... -
Computational Analysis of Wall Shear Stress Patterns on Calcified and Bicuspid Aortic Valves : Focus on Radial and Coaptation Patterns
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Calcification and bicuspid valve formation are important aortic valve disorders that disturb the hemodynamics and the valve function. The detailed analysis of aortic valve hemodynamics would lead to a better understanding ... -
Fluid Flow Characteristics of Healthy and Calcified Aortic Valves Using Three-Dimensional Lagrangian Coherent Structures Analysis
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Aortic valve calcification is an important cardiovascular disorder that deteriorates the accurate functioning of the valve leaflets. The increasing stiffness due to the calcification prevents the complete closure of the ...
