Biomechanics of the Aorta
Biomechanics of the Aorta: Modelling for Patient Care is a holistic analysis of the aorta towards its biomechanical description. The book addresses topics such as physiology, clinical imaging, tissue and blood flow modeling, along with knowledge that is needed in diagnostics, aortic rupture prediction, assist surgical planning, and more. It encompasses a wide range of topics from the basic sciences (Vascular biology, Continuum mechanics, Image analysis) to clinical applications, as well as describing and presenting computational studies and experimental benches to mimic, understand and propose the best treatment of aortic pathologies. The book begins with an introduction to the fundamental a...
Biomechanics and Mechanobiology of Aneurysms
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and premature death of modern era medicine. It is estimated that approximately 81 million people in the United States (US) currently have one or more of the many forms of cardiovascular disease, resulting in 1 in every 2.8 deaths, or 900,000 deaths per year. 40% of all deaths in Europe are a result of cardiovascular disease in people under the age of 75. Aneurysms form a significant portion of these cardiovascular related deaths and are defined as a permanent and irreversible localised dilation of a blood vessel greater than 50% of its normal diameter. Although aneurysms can form in any blood vessel, the more lethal aneurysms develop i...
Surgical Management of Aortic Pathology
This book follows the concept of perceiving the entire aorta as one functional organ assuming that all individual pathologies and local interventional procedures affect the up- and downstream segments with consequences for complications and disease progression. Thus any preventive or surgical strategy must recognize the aortic disease in its entirety. The book intends to cover the full spectrum of aortic pathologies, mechanisms and functional interplay. The latest available diagnostic tools and options for surgical treatment are presented by the foremost experts in their field in state-of-the-art reviews. The reader is provided with the most current and comprehensive insight into all fundamental and clinical aspects of aortic disease. All chapters are carefully complemented with figures and illustrations.
The Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Clinical and laboratory information on abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) is reviewed in this volume. The focus is on recent developments related to the biochemistry and cellular pathophysiology of matrix destruction associated with the disease.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
The increase in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is viewed from the perspective of epidemiology, and initiatives to prevent death from rupture are discussed. Animal models and their relevance to pathophysiology and prevention are also presented, and the interventional pharmacology is also considered from the perspective of enzymology.
Computational Biomechanics for Medicine
This volume comprises the latest developments in both fundamental science and patient-specific applications, discussing topics such as: cellular mechanics, injury biomechanics, biomechanics of the heart and vascular system, algorithms of computational biomechanics for medical image analysis, and both patient-specific fluid dynamics and solid mechanics simulations. With contributions from researchers world-wide, Computational Biomechanics for Medicine: Measurments, Models, and Predictions provides an opportunity for specialists in the field to present their latest methodologies and advancements.
The World Justice Project Rule of Law Index, 2012-2013
"The WJP rule of law index 2012-2013 looks at 48 rule of law indicators organized around nine conceptual dimensions: limited government powers; absence of corruption; order and security; fundamental rights; open government; regulatory enforcement; civil justice; criminal justice; and informal justice. The index scores and rankings are constructed from over 400 variables drawn from two original sources of data collected from independent sources by the World Justice Project in each country: a General population poll (GPP) and a series of Qualified respondents' questionnaires (QRQ). To date over 97,000 people and 2,500 experts from around the world have participated in this project. The index is for a broad audience of policy-makers, civil society, practitioners, academics, and other constituencies"--Page 1.
