Stents are structural implants with widespread clinical use in vascular intervention to re‐
open stenotic vessels for the treatment of coronary artery disease and peripheral arterial …

Stent-based therapies in percutaneous vascular intervention are associated with significant
long-term complications related to in-stent restenosis. A growing body of literature …

Safe vascular stent application requires rapid expansion of the stent to minimize the risk of
procedural ischemia. While high expansion speeds can be achieved with metallic stents …

Drug-eluting stents have emerged as a predominant percutaneous strategy in patients with
coronary artery disease. However, hypersensitivity reactions caused by their nonerodable …

Complications associated with implantation of polymeric hernia meshes remain a difficult
surgical challenge. We report here on our work, developing for the first time, an injectable …

Purpose: To assess the technical feasibility and biocompatibility of a novel stent based on
poly (L-lactide)(PLLA) and poly (4-hydroxybutyrate)(P4HB) for peripheral vascular …

BACKGROUND: To assess technical feasibility and biocompatibility of a new Sirolimus (SIR)-
eluting biodegradable poly-l-lactide (PLLA) stent for peripheral vascular application …

Yield strengths exceeding 1 GPa with elastic strains exceeding 1 pct were measured in
novel bioabsorbable wire materials comprising high-purity iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) …

Purpose: To assess technical feasibility and biocompatibility of a new biodegradable
sirolimus-eluting poly-L-lactide (PLLA) vascular anastomotic stent. Methods: A …

The monoclonal antibody (mAb) to the platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor has potent
antiplatelet and antithrombotic characteristics shown to reduce thrombus‐related major …
