The application prospect of hemodynamics research on the clinical procedure and healthcare was demonstrated with respect to its multi level application in prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
4.Optimization of baseline on stent with trapezoidal cross-section for intracranial aneurysm
Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2012;27(3):E294-E298
Objective To optimize the baseline on the trapezoidal cross section of stent wires, so as to reduce the risk of intracranial saccular aneurysm rupture after the implantation of such stents. Methods Thirty-eight trapezoidal cross-section wire stents with different baselines were constructed to establish the finite element models. Numerical simulation by fluid-solid interaction method was conducted to calculate 38 maximum pressure gradients on the aneurysm wall. GRNN (general regression neural network) and GA (genetic algorithm) were used to optimize the baseline on the cross-section of stents with trapezoidal cross-section wire so as to minimize the maximal pressure gradient on the aneurysm wall. Results Compared with the traditional stent with rectangular cross-section wire, the maximal pressure gradient on the a neurysm wall was reduced by 7.86% after the implantation with the optimized stent with trapezoidal cross-section wire. Conclusions The combination of GRNN and GA is an effective approach for stent optimization.
5.Comparative study on effects from three kinds of stents with different cross-section on aneurismal hemodynamics
Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2012;27(2):E220-E226
Objective To propose and numerically simulate a novel stent with triangular wire cross-section so as to compare the hemodynamic effect of endovascular stents in aneurysm with circular, rectangular and triangular cross section, respectively. Methods Three aneurysm models were constructed by implanting 3 kinds of stents separately, including one with bare circular wire cross-section stent (named CM), and one with bare rectangular wire cross-section stent (named RM), and one with bare triangular cross-section stent (named TM). An unstented aneurysm model was also constructed to serve as the control (named UM). Four models were preformed with numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction under the same boundary conditions using finite element method. Results Compared with TM and CM, RM showed lower velocity, higher flow resistance and longer turn over time, which demonstrated that the effect of blood flow pattern on three stents was decreased in the order of RM, TM, CM. RM could reduce the magnitude and fluctuation of wall shear stress (WSS) more significantly than that of TM and CM. However, the pressure rise of TM and CM was lower than that of RM. WSS distribution and deformation results indicated the possibility of aneurysm development along the distal wall was higher than that along the proximal wall, and the top of aneurysm was in the highest risk of rupture. Conclusions Three kinds of stents show differences of hemodynamics in aneurysm treatment, which provides significant references for the structural design and optimization of endovascular stent.

Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2012;27(4):E386-E391
Objective To investigate the mechanical mechanism of bypass graft for the treatment of DeBakey III aortic dissection and explore the valid surgical planning. Methods Patient-specific models of DeBakey III aortic dissection, including the models of through lumen and blind lumen, before and after bypassing between ascending aorta and abdominal aorta, between left subclavian artery and abdominal aorta, were constructed, and then numerical simulations were performed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method under physiological flow conditions based on fluid-structure interaction (FSI). Results Blood flow velocity, pressure, vessel wall displacement of the false lumen after bypass graft were reduced by 38.86%, 15.347 kPa and 39.46% on average, respectively. Conclusions Bypass graft is an effective surgical method for the treatment of DeBakey III aortic dissection under specific conditions with good prospects in clinical application.

Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2016;31(5):E461-E466
In recent years, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been widely used in fundamental and clinical researches of cerebral aneurysms. The research direction involves: ① the hemodynamic risk factors associated with initiation, evolution and rupture of cerebral aneurysms, ② the assessment of flow field changes in cerebral aneurysms after the implantation of coils and stent as well as the effect of such endovascular treatment by establishing the patient-specific models. This review elaborates the research progress in hemodynamics of cerebral aneurysms from 3 aspects: the development of CFD models, the morphological and hemodynamic parameters for rupture risk assessment of aneurysms and the role of CFD in the endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms.

9.Invasive detection of blood viscosity and its influencing factors in middle-aged and elderly people with cardiovascular diseases
Journal of Medical Biomechanics 2014;29(6):E554-E559
Objective To detect the blood viscosity values and find out the statistically significant influencing factors of blood viscosity and their fitting formulas among the middle aged and elderly people with high incidence of cardiovascular diseases. Methods The subjects’ blood was collected in the hospital, together with their physiological and pathological information, and LG-R-80 series rotary viscometer detector was used to detect blood viscosity. The statistically significant factors of blood viscosity and their fitting formulas were obtained by using SPSS. Results Blood viscosity increased with age and body mass index (BMI) and reached its peak value in 60 year-old males (5.35 mPa•s) and 50 year-old females (4.45 mPa•s), respectively, then the variation of blood viscosity would be stabilized, with no more increase; the blood viscosity values of males in all groups with different ages were significantly higher than those of females, with difference value in the range of 0.28-0.90 mPa•s; the blood viscosity values were obviously higher in hypertension group than those in normal group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.1). Conclusions The blood viscosity distribution in people with high incidence of cardiovascular diseases has certain regular pattern, and the obtained fitting formula between blood viscosity and influencing factors in this study would provide useful references for further study such as variation of blood viscosity under different physiological conditions, effects of different viscosities on some cardiovascular diseases, and non-invasive detection of blood viscosities.
