TL;DR: D(f) is a novel means of quantifying microvascular branching that independently predicted 14-year coronary heart disease (CHD) mortality and suggest that suboptimal microv vascular branching may play a role in development of clinical cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: Inflammation, which is associated with degenerative wall remodeling and rupture, is related to high flow activity, including elevated wall shear stress, and Hemodynamic simulations might prove useful in identifying saccular intracranial aneurysms at risk of developing inflammation, a potential biomarker for rupture.

Hierarchically structured porous materials: synthesis strategies and applications in energy storage
TL;DR: This review takes the characteristic parameters of the hierarchical pores as the survey object to summarize the recent progress on hierarchically structured porous materials for energy storage and hopes that this review can stimulate strong intuition into the design and application of new hierarchically Structured porous materials in energystorage and other fields.
