Abstract
Blood vessels are often subjected to axial torsion (or twist) due to body movement or surgery. However, there are few studies on blood vessel under twist. This review first summarizes the clinical observation on the twist of blood vessels and then presents what we know about the mechanical behaviors of blood vessel under twist, including the constitutive models. The state of art researches on the remodeling of blood vessels under twist via ex vivo organ culture, in vivo animal experiments, and mathematical model simulations are further discussed. It is our hope that this review will draw attention for further in-depth studies on the behavior and remodeling of blood vessels under twist.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Medical Biomechanics (JMB, ISSN 1004-7220, CN 31-1624R), an open access, bimonthly, peer-reviewed journal with the aim of creating mutual understanding and cooperating among medicine, science, and engineering disciplines in China, was founded in 1986, with its original name of Journal of Biomechanics. The journal is currently sponsored by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and supervised by Ministry of Education of People’s Republic of China.
As an academic periodical, JMB seeks to publish articles relating to medical biomechanics and interdisciplinary fields, including basic, applied and clinical research. Areas that are covered include but not limited to mechanobiology, musculoskeletal biomechanics, cardiovascular and respiratory biomechanics, cell and molecular biomechanics, aerospace biomechanics, dental biomechanics, rehabilitation biomechanics, hemarheology, sports biomechanics.
