Shear rates after puncture of the mouse aorta or saphenous vein. (A) The dot plots show the mean blood flow velocities in the intact aorta and saphenous vein. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM, and individual symbols represent individual mice. (B) The curves show the blood flow velocities upstream and downstream of the site of injury after puncture of the aorta, as a function of the time after injury. (C) The curves show the blood flow velocities upstream and downstream of the site of injury after puncture of the saphenous vein, as a function of the time after injury. (D) The curve shows the shear rate at the edge of the wound in the aorta, calculated with the model as a function of the time after injury. (E) The curve shows the shear rate at the edge of the wound in the saphenous vein, calculated with the model as a function of the time after injury. (F) The dot plot shows the maximum shear rates at the edge of the wound in the aorta or saphenous vein calculated with the model. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM, and individual symbols represent individual mice. (G) The graph shows the maximum shear rates at the edge of the wound in the carotid artery, aorta, or saphenous vein, calculated with the model as a function of the area of the injury. Individual symbols represent individual mice. (H) The dot plots show the maximum elongational flows at the edge of the wound (edge) and the mean elongational flows in a broad area in front of the wound (front), calculated with the model for puncture of the aorta or saphenous vein. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM, and individual symbols represent individual mice.
