Evaluation of nontarget lesions in femoropopliteal disease using near‐infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound imaging

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 540-547, September 1, 2024.
Abstract Background In coronary artery disease (CAD), lipid‐core‐containing plaque (LCP) in nontarget lesions detected using near‐infrared spectroscopy intravascular ultrasound (NIRS‐IVUS) was related to increased major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with CAD.

Low expression of TGF‐β2 and matrilin2 in human aqueous humour with acute primary angle closure

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 3, February 2024.
Abstract Primary angle‐closure glaucoma (PACG) is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world. Angle closure induced by pupil block and secondary iris synechia is the fundamental pathology of the PACG. The molecular mechanisms of angle closure have not yet been clearly illustrated.

The comparison of early healing 1-month after PCI among CoCr-everolimus-eluting stent (EES), biodegradable polymer (BP)-EES and BP-sirolimus-eluting stent: Insights from OFDI and coronary angioscopy

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2018
Background: Third-generation stents with abluminal biodegradable polymer (BP) might facilitate early healing. Therefore, we compared early healing between second-generation and third-generation stents using coronary angioscopy (CAS) and optical frequency

Possible effect of direct oral anti-coagulant for preventing long stenting lesion from in-stent restenosis in femoropopliteal segment: Case report with angioscopy findings

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2020
A 64-year-old female underwent a successful first percutaneous intervention using MISAGO stents for a de novo femoropopliteal lesion. Subsequently, three more effective procedures were done using balloon catheters for in-stent restenosis.

Automated interpretation of the coronary angioscopy with deep convolutional neural networks

Open Heart, 2020
Background Coronary angioscopy (CAS) is a useful modality to assess atherosclerotic changes, but interpretation of the images requires expert knowledge.

Clinical Observation of Posterior‐Chamber Phakic Implantable Collamer Lens V4c Implantation in Myopic Patients with Shallow Anterior Chamber Depth: A Retrospective, Consecutive Observational Study

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Purpose. The reference range for the preoperative anterior chamber angle width for ICL surgery is unclear. Our objective was to assess the clinical effect and the range of anterior chamber angle width of posterior‐chamber implantable collamer lens V4c (ICL V4c) implantation in patients with anterior chamber depth (ACD) < 2.8 mm. Methods.

Impact of out-stent plaque characteristics on vascular response after second generation drug-eluting stent implantation: iMAP-intravascular ultrasound and angioscopic study

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2018
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to elucidate the impact of out-stent plaque characteristics on vascular response after implantation of second generation drug-eluting stent (G2-DES). Methods: Enrolled were 37 patients with 39 coronary artery lesions

Molecular imaging of low-density lipoprotein in human coronary plaques by color fluorescent angioscopy and microscopy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
OBJECTIVES: Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is an important risk factor for coronary artery disease. However, its localization in human coronary plaques is not well understood. The present study was performed to visualize LDL in human coronary artery wall.
