Systemic Involvement in ACS: Using CMR Imaging to Compare the Aortic Wall in Patients with and without Acute Coronary Syndrome

open access: yes, 2018
Data set of patients with with and without acute coronary syndrome with CMR imaging to compare the aortic wall thickness and area. Previous studies have demonstrated that in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), plaque destabilization and vessel inflammation ...

Aortic diameter >or = 5.5 cm is not a good predictor of type A aortic dissection: observations from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD).

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Studies of aortic aneurysm patients have shown that the risk of rupture increases with aortic size. However, few studies of acute aortic dissection patients and aortic size exist.

Artery‐on‐Chip Demonstrates Mechanical and Functional Features of Healthy and Diseased Living Smooth Muscle Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This article details the development of an artery‐on‐chip platform for in vitro arterial disease modeling and therapeutic discovery. It describes the fabrication of a fibrin biomaterial scaffold seeded with iPSC‐derived smooth muscle and endothelial cells, mimicking native artery properties. Two genetic disease models showcase the platform's ability to

Acute type B aortic dissection in a pregnant woman with undiagnosed Marfan syndrome: A case report and review of the literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Women's Health, 2021
Aortic dissection during pregnancy is rare but can be life-threatening to both the mother and the foetus. Marfan syndrome is a major risk factor for acute aortic dissection during pregnancy. Here, we present the case of a woman who had not been diagnosed

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

Impact of D-Dimers on the Differential Diagnosis of Acute Chest Pain: Current Aspects besides the Widely Known

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2014
D-dimers are cleavage products of fibrin that occur during plasmin-mediated fibrinolysis of blood clots. In the emergency department, D-dimer measurement represents a valuable and cost-effective tool in the differential diagnosis of acute chest pain ...
