Abstract:
A system for removing a thrombus in a blood vessel, includes: a main body part which is movable along the blood vessel and performs a revascularization function within the blood vessel during installation, and sucks and transfers the thrombus during aspiration; a microflow circuit part which is attached to the outer surface of the main body part and extends to the exterior of the body, creates a microflow circuit which acts on the thrombus to move, deform, and fragment the thrombus; and an aspiration part which is provided to the exterior of the body from the inside of the blood vessel, and which during aspiration, after blocking blood flow in the blood vessel, aspirates the thrombus which has been moved, deformed and fragmented by the microflow circuit part and transferred by the main body part and discharges the thrombus to the outside of the body.
Abstract:
Provided are a method for fabricating a human nasal turbinate-derived mesenchymal stem cell-based 3D bioprinted construct, and a use thereof, wherein the human nasal turbinate-derived mesenchymal stem cell-based, 3D bioprinted construct is advantageous over conventional mesenchymal stem cell-based, 3D bioprinted constructs in that the former can survive and proliferate stably in vitro and/or in vivo and shows high osteogenic differentiation ability as well, therefore is expected to make a great contribution to the practical use of cellular therapeutic agents.
Abstract:
Provided is a headset dosimeter for using a coulomb-stimulation device for breaking up iron-oxide mineralization with protein aggregation using a traversing ion beam comprising a head mounting part, a first stereoscopic block provided on one side to the head mounting part, and a second stereoscopic block provided at an opposite position to the first stereoscopic block based on the head mounting part, wherein each of the first stereoscopic block and the second stereoscopic block may include a mounting part capable of receiving at least one radiographic film.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a biological tissue biopsy device including a body extending in a longitudinal direction, an outer needle installed to be connected to one side of the body and be extended in a longitudinal direction and including a first tube having a hollow portion formed therein and a second tube disposed in a direction parallel to the first tube to guide a hemostatic substance, an inner needle provided inside the first tube and extending in a longitudinal direction, and a sliding means provided in the body and installed to be connected to one end of the inner needle so as to enable the inner needle to move forward and backward. Here, the sliding means causes the inner needle to move a predetermined distance from the hollow portion of the first tube and be inserted into a target site.
Abstract:
A collimator for flow pixel proton therapy providing an irradiation region which controls an intensity of an irradiated proton, including micro-motors arranged at both sides of a main frame connected, one to one, to multiple spread panels arranged in a center opening of the main frame by a corresponding ones of multiple elastic reels, in which a first half of the spread panels are moved to a first side of the main frame and a second half of the spread panels are moved to a second side of the main frame by the opposite micro-motors when a corresponding elastic reel is wound by a corresponding micro-motor, and in which each spread panel is in a stress release state when the corresponding elastic reel is unwound.
Abstract:
An aspect of the present invention provides a rectal phantom unit and a phantom device including the same, including: a holder having a penetration portion formed in a longitudinal direction thereof; a rectal simulant which is inserted to the penetration portion of the holder, includes a plurality of unit plates laminated thereon, and simulates a rectum of a body; and a film which is disposed between the rectal simulant and the holder and measures an absorbed dose of radiation irradiated to the rectal simulant.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treating and/or preventing arthritis, which comprising, as an active ingredient, a gene delivery vehicle into which an IK factor or a fragment thereof, or a nucleic acid encoding thereof is inserted. IK factor or the fragment thereof, and the nucleic acid encoding thereof, which are the active ingredient of the pharmaceutical composition according to the present invention, are derived from an organism and therefore, show no side effects in administered into a subject for a long time. Accordingly, they ensures safety and are expected to effectively treat arthritis by being involved in the upstream mechanism for suppressing arthritis.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating an autoimmune disease comprising, as an active ingredient, PINK1 protein or polynucleotide encoding the same. The PINK1 protein according to the present invention inhibits the activity of Th17, promotes the activity of a regulatory T cell (Treg), and increases autophagy in Treg cells, thereby controlling excessive immune responses. Therefore, the PINK1 protein can be effectively used as a pharmaceutical composition or an immunosuppressant, which is capable of preventing or treating an autoimmune disease, such as arthritis, and the like, caused by dysregulation of various kinds of immune responses.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a tracheal intubation double tube that includes an outer tube that is inserted into a human body organ; and an inner tube that can be inserted and discharged by coming into close contact with an inner peripheral surface of the outer tube, and is fastened to and separated from the outer tube at a tip end portion.
Abstract:
There are provided an apparatus and method for measuring thermal conductivity capable of easily and accurately obtaining an extent of thermal damage of a targeted tissue. The apparatus for measuring thermal conductivity in burns includes a thermal paper stacking member having a plurality of sheets of thermal paper stacked thereon to form layers, and a pressing member configured to press the stacking member so that the thermal paper is stacked and maintained in a closely adhered state. Here, an extent of thermal damage of the targeted tissue according to the depth can be calculated as an extent of thermal damage of the stacking member according to the depth.
