Abstract: There is described herein methods of treating a disease associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) in a patient. In some cases, the methods comprise administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of fibroblasts which express CD36.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to thin free-standing oxide membranes. In one aspect, a method includes providing a substrate. The substrate defines a hole having a diameter of about 500 nanometers to 5000 nanometers. A layer of metal is deposited on the substrate. A supporting layer is deposited on the layer of metal. A first side of the supporting layer is the side that is disposed on the layer of metal. A metal oxide layer is deposited on the first side of the supporting layer and on the substrate. In some implementations, the method further includes removing the supporting layer.

Abstract: A method for making lithium iron phosphate is provided. In the method, an alkali is reacted with a ferric salt in water to form a red colored ferric hydroxide precipitate in the water. The red colored ferric hydroxide precipitate is mixed with deionized water, organic solvent, and emulsifier to form an water-in-oil emulsion. The phosphoric acid solution and iron metal powder are added to the water-in-oil emulsion to form ferrous hydrogen phosphate. A lithium source is introduced to the water-in-oil emulsion and reacted with the ferrous hydrogen phosphate to form a precursor in the water-in-oil emulsion. The precursor is heated in a protective gas at a heating temperature in a range from about 600° C. to about 800° C. to form lithium iron phosphate.

Abstract: A targeting catheter is used to locate an arteriotomy, such as is formed during a femoral artery catheterization procedure. The targeting catheter includes one or more targeting aids, such as an inflatable balloon or sensor (e.g., Doppler or temperature sensor), to locate the arteriotomy. The targeting aid may be positioned at the arteriotomy. An ultrasonic beacon on the catheter may then be located relative to a therapeutic ultrasonic applicator (e.g., by using acoustic time-of-flight) so that the focus of ultrasonic energy from the applicator can be aligned with the arteriotomy.

Abstract: A system and method for remote release actuation is disclosed.

The method includes the steps of: providing a remote release actuating system; powering the control mechanism with the power supply; powering the position sensor via the control mechanism; and using the control mechanism to check the electrical connection of the position sensor and powering the actuator assembly to release the cable which releases the latch mechanism into a home position if the position sensor is not connected.

Abstract: Methods and systems reconstruct and verify aortic blood pressure waveforms from peripheral blood pressure waveform data using mathematical models. The models combine analytical models of pulse wave propagation in the cardiovascular system with empirical models derived from measurements taken from human subjects. When used to reconstruct the aortic pressure of a given subject, the models are adjusted to the subject and the subject's physiological state based upon measurements performed on the subject's cardiovascular system.
