Introduction: Fractality is omnipresent in medicine and life sciences. In particular, the fractal
principle is found simultaneously at different organization levels of the cell nucleus. The aim …

In recent years, the concept of hierarchy has been introduced into crashworthy design to
explore an ultralight energy-absorbing structure with outstanding mechanical properties. In …

This paper presents a fractal hierarchical hexagon structure inspired by bionic structures,
such as spider webs, as a novel lightweight energy absorber. Experimental testing and …

The aim of this study was to propose a methodology to investigate the tumour heterogeneity
and evaluate its ability to predict pathologically complete response (pCR) after chemo …

Background: We hypothesized that computerized morphological analysis of the left atrium
(LA) and pulmonary veins (PVs) via fractal measurements of shape and texture features of …

Purpose To establish a prediction model combining fractal geometry and radiological
features, which consider the complexity of tumour morphology advancing beyond the …

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is caused by mutations in sarcomeric proteins, the
commonest being MYBPC3 encoding myosin-binding protein C. It is characterised by left …

Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration
(AMD) that leads to progressive and irreversible vision loss. Identifying patients with greatest …

Irregularity in shape and behavior is the main feature of every anatomical system, including
human organs, tissues, cells, and sub-cellular entities. It has been shown that this property …
