Yang W, Fung T, Chian K, Chong C
Proc Inst Mech Eng H . 2007 Jul; 221(4):417-26. PMID: 17605399
This study was carried out to develop a two-layered finite element model of the oesophagus. The outer muscle and inner mucosal layer were constructed individually with different mechanical properties and...

Yang W, Fung T, Chian K, Chong C
J Biomech Eng . 2006 Dec; 128(6):909-16. PMID: 17154693
The time-dependent mechanical properties of the porcine esophagus were investigated experimentally and theoretically. It was hypothesized that the viscoelasticity was quasilinear, i.e., the time and strain effects were independent. In...

Yang W, Fung T, Chian K, Chong C
J Biomech Eng . 2006 Dec; 128(6):899-908. PMID: 17154692
The identification of a three dimensional constitutive model is useful for describing the complex mechanical behavior of a nonlinear and anisotropic biological tissue such as the esophagus. The inflation tests...

Yang W, Fung T, Chian K, Chong C
J Biomech Eng . 2006 May; 128(3):409-18. PMID: 16706590
The esophagus, like other soft tissues, exhibits nonlinear and anisotropic mechanical properties. As a composite structure, the properties of the outer muscle and inner mucosal layer are different. It is...

Yang W, Fung T, Chian K, Chong C
J Biomech . 2006 May; 40(3):481-90. PMID: 16677658
The mucosal folding is a phenomenon observed for some biological tissues, including the pulmonary airway and gastrointestinal tract. In order to understand the mechanism of the formation of mucosal folding,...

Kuo S, Huang W, Hu C, Liao W, Fung T, Wu S
Eur J Endocrinol . 1994 Aug; 131(2):125-30. PMID: 8075781
Graves' hyperthyroidism is due primarily to overproduction of antibodies to thyrotropin receptors (TR-ab), which stimulate the thyroid gland and cause hyperthyroidism. Antibody production during antithyroid drug therapy is an important...

Makhoul I, Bui K, Fung T, Lew C, Barrett C, Chung M, et al.
ASAIO J . 1994 Jan; 40(1):27-32. PMID: 8186489
Despite the introduction of new ventilation techniques and surfactant therapy, some premature infants still experience severe respiratory failure and either die or survive with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation...

Flournoy D, Fung T, Van Duyn O
Methods Find Exp Clin Pharmacol . 1981 Mar; 3(2):79-82. PMID: 6785543
Gentamicin serum concentrations were monitored via bioassay with three indicators, to determine if assay results were influenced by the testing organism. When mean assay values, from seven samples, were compared...

Lin M, Chen F, Chern Y, Fung T
Can J Physiol Pharmacol . 1979 Nov; 57(11):1205-12. PMID: 519522
Systemic and central administration of methacholine (a synthetic choline derivative) both produced dose-dependent decreases in rectal temperature in rats at all the ambient temperatures studied. Both at room temperature (22...
