Quantitative Image-Based Assessment of Degradation Patterns in Polymer-Based Medical Implants
Abstract: Polymer-based medical devices are widely used in clinical practice, where long-term material degradation can compromise performance and patient safety. Traditional polymer degradation studies predominantly rely on laboratory-based experiments, which often fail to capture real-world operational and usage conditions. In this study, a multimodal, data-driven framework is proposed for the quantitative assessment of degradation patterns in polymer-based medical devices using publicly available clinical failure data. Structured operational parameters, including cumulative usage …

Muscle vs. Heart: A Comprehensive Review of Anabolic Steroid-Induced Cardiovascular Risks
Abstract: Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are widely used by athletes and bodybuilders to enhance muscle mass and performance. However, their misuse is associated with serious and often underrecognized cardiovascular risks. Despite their popularity, particularly among young adults, the long-term consequences of AAS abuse on cardiovascular health remain insufficiently explored in the literature. This review aims to: 1. Analyze the cardiovascular implications of AAS use. 2. Elucidate the molecular and physiological mechanisms contributing …
