Abstract:Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have become the leading global burden of diseases in recent years and are the primary cause of human mortality and loss of healthy life expectancy. Myocardial infarction (MI) is the top cause of CVDs‐related deaths, and its incidence is increasing worldwide every year. Recently, hydrogels have garnered great interest from researchers as a promising therapeutic option for cardiac tissue repair after MI. This is due to their excellent properties, including biocompatibility, mechani… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
