Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Model for Analysing the Role of Shear Stress in Angiogenesis in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterised by an attack on healthy cells in the joints. Blood flow and wall shear stress are crucial in angiogenesis, contributing to RA’s pathogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates angiogenesis, and shear stress is a surro...
