  • This study explored the effect of pulsed magnetic field (PMF) stimulus on the improvement of blood stagnation by means of photoplethysmography (PPG). Our stimulus system was designed to generate PMF with a maximum intensity variation of 0.20 T at a transition time of $160{\mu}s$, with pulse intervals of 1 Hz. In order to quantitatively estimate vascular condition, indices such as blood vessel tension (BVT), stress power (SP), differential pulse wave index (DPI) and remained blood volume (RBV) were calculated from the second derivative of the PPG signal and power density spectrum (PDS). Our results showed that non-invasive PMF stimulus was effective in improving blood stagnation. Therefore, it may be concluded that appropriate PMF stimulus affects the blood circulatory system.

  • Atherosclerosis, which is a degenerate disease, is believed to occur in the vascular system due to deposition of cholesterol and low density lipoprotein(LDL) or thrombosis on the blood vessel. Atherosclerosis narrows arterial lumen, which is known as stenosis phenomenon of blood vessel. Pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is thought to occur mainly by aging. Restenosis phenomenon is observed in the same site of insertion of a stent and balloon angioplasty after treatment of interventional theraphy. Several hypothetical theories related to the generation of atherosclerosis have been reported: high shear stress theory, low shear stress theory, high shear stress gradient theory, flow separation and turbulence theory and high pressure theory. However, no one theory clearly explains the causes of atherosclerosis. In the present study the generation of atherosclerosis in the left coronary artery is investigated. The hypotheses are verified by using the computer simulation.

  • The objective of this investigation is to find effects of the pulsatile flow on the morphological changes of the endothelial cell(E.C.) in blood vessel. The shear flow experiment system is used to get the morphological changes of the E.C. The shapes of E.C. are simulated by the cosine curves and computer simulation is used to calculate the pressure and shear stress fields on the E.C. The inlet boundary condition is given from the measured velocity data of femoral artery. The endothelial cells reduce their heights in the flow field so as to reduce the pressure and wall shear stress on the surface. As the exposed time increases, the shear stress and pressure on the E.C. are reduced under the pulsatile flow. The shear stresses on the cell surface show the minimum values during the deceleration phase.

  • The main objective of present study is to obtain information for flow characteristics, such as velocity and wall shear stress, of bifurcation in blood vessel. Branch flows for Newtonian fluids are simulated by using Fluent V.6.0. The numerical simulations are carried out for five cases divided by different values of bifurcation angle and area ratio. As a result of simulation, high wall shear stress is appeared at the bifurcated region. As increasing bifurcation angle, pressure drop is increasing. In addition, as the area is decreasing, pressure drop and wall shear stress is increasing.

  • Bovine angiogenin (bAng) is a potent blood vessel inducing protein purified from cow milk. Fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to study the interaction of bAng with actin in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, and 1 mM CaCl$_2$ at 25$^{\circ}C$. Actin contains four tryptophans but bAng contains no tryptophans. A 50% decrease in intrinsic fluorescence accompanied formation of the bAng/actin complex. (omitted)

  • 뇌혈관 질환의 발생 및 진행 기작을 이해하고 그 질환의 조기진단과 진행예측을 위해서는 경동맥 분지에서의 혈류역학 정보가 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 정상인 경동맥 분지 탄성 모형 혈관과 생체 외 돼지혈액을 이용하여 모의박동 혈액 순환 시스템을 구축하여 혈류를 조절하면서 혈관과 혈액의 초음파 영상을 내부 압력과 시간 동기화하여 측정하였다. 박동 펌프의 박동률이 분당 20회, 40회, 60회(r/min)일 때의 초음파 영상의 에코 값, 혈류속도, 혈관 벽의 움직임, 혈압을 펌프의 5주기 동안 평균하여 한 주기의 데이터를 추출하였다. 결과로 박동률이 20 r/min, 40 r/min, 60 r/min일때 수축기 최고 혈류 속도는 각각 20 cm/s, 25 cm/s, 40 cm/s, 혈압 차는 각각 30 mmHg, 70 mmHg, 85 mmHg, 동맥벽은 각각 0.05 mm, 0.15 mm, 0.25 mm로 확장 하였다. 에코의 주기적 변화는 혈류속도와 압력과는 시간 지연이 있었으며 20 r/min에서는 변화량이 최소였다. 이러한 시간 동기화된 인자들의 주기적 변화는 전산혈류역학 실험의 정확한 입력정보와 검증을 위한 중요한 정보이며 경동맥 협착 질환의 발생 및 진행 기작을 밝히는데도 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이다.
