Mutuality and Self‐Care in the Patient–Caregiver Dyads in the Context of Coronary Heart Disease: An Exploration of the Mediating Role of Self‐Efficacy

Journal of Clinical Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims To evaluate the effect of mutuality on self‐care in people with CHD and the contribution of their caregivers, and whether such relationships can be mediated by self‐efficacy. Design Secondary analysis of baseline data from a multi‐centre longitudinal study. Methods Patients at the onset of coronary artery disease who underwent angioplasty,

Health Related Quality of Life and Sleep Regularity Among Middle‐Aged to Older Adults From the Community

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irregular sleep is increasingly related to poorer health, with stronger links to cardiovascular disease and mortality than sleep duration. Its impact on health‐related quality of life, however, remains unclear, particularly in community‐based populations.

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1997
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.

Exercise oximetry in clinical practice: A single‐centre perspective on procedure and techniques

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract In moderate lower extremity artery disease (LEAD), when tissue ischaemia due to impaired inflow occurs at exercise but not during rest, exercise oximetry may be evaluated as a part of the diagnosis process. Initially used when assessing critical limb ischaemia at rest, transcutaneous oximetry (TcpO2) has also been used in the last two decades ...
