| Abstract | After coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the hemodynamic conditions experienced by the saphenous veins are similar to those experienced by coronary arteries: pulsatile pressure (80-120 mmHg), pulsatile flow (mean flow rate of 250 ml/min), and elevated shear stress (1-7 Pa). Here we present a novel pulsatile platform for studying the human saphenous vein early remodeling events after CABG. The system was designed in order to apply CABG-like pressure/flow stimulation patterns to the hosted human saphenous vein segments, i.e. a pulsatile pressure oscillating between a diastolic minimum and a systolic maximum in counter-phase with a pulsatile flow rate. Functional tests revealed good fitting of simulated and measured tracings and the ability of the pulsatile platform to mimic the complexity of the coronary hemodynamic environment with good fidelity in comparison with state-of-the-art devices. This system will enable us to study the biological response of human saphenous veins to CABG conditioning ex vivo, in currently ongoing experiments. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
