Comparison of Fractional Flow Reserve and Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Saphenous Vein Grafts
ABSTRACT Background Revascularization decision‐making for saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) relies on angiographic lesion severity estimation, as studies on fractional flow reserve (FFR) for detecting ischemia in SVGs are scarce. Aims To compare FFR and quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) of SVGs against myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and to ...

Tissue Angiotensin II Generating System by Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Chymase
.: It had been believed that angiotensin II (Ang II) was produced by the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which was established in the 1950’s. After a while, people realized that the multiple functions of Ang II could not be explained by the conventional ...

Incidence and 1‐Year Prognostic of Unstable Angina After High‐Sensitivity Troponin Assessment
ABSTRACT Background Incidence and prognostic of unstable angina after high‐sensitivity troponin assesment is controversial. Aims This study evaluated prognostic of a contemporary population of patients with UA defined using high sensitive T troponin (T hs‐cTn) measurements and with significant coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods Consecutive patients

Alterations in the Renin-Angiotensin System in Experimental Septic Shock
OBJECTIVES:. To analyze dynamic changes in the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) during septic shock, focusing on angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity and the balance between angiotensin peptides, using a mass spectrometry method.

ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a well‐known risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery diseases (CAD). Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as PCI for bifurcation lesions often yields poor outcomes, especially in DM patients.

The Impact of Hydrostatic Pressure on Fractional Flow Reserve in Saphenous Vein Grafts
ABSTRACT Background The relationship between height differences related to graft anatomy and physiological pressure indices in coronary bypass grafts has not been studied. We sought to study the impact of hydrostatic pressure on fractional flow reserve (FFR) in saphenous vein grafts (SVGs).

Real Time Hemodynamic Monitoring During M‐TEER Using Electrical Cardiometry
ABSTRACT Background Mitral regurgitation is a common valvular dysfunction causing patient morbidity and mortality. Mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) allows grasping of valvular leaflets and approximation via a small implant, thus reducing mitral regurgitation (MR).

Enzymatic Production of Opine‐type Chiral Amines with Controlled Stereoselectivity
Chiral secondary amine dicarboxylic acid derivatives are key building blocks of several peptidomimetic angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE2) inhibitors. Reductive amination of α‐keto acids with α‐amino esters can yield orthogonally functionalized derivatives facilitating further chemical modifications. Biocatalysis offers a sustainable and selective way

Contemporary Perspectives on Chronic Renal Disorders
ABSTRACT The prevalence of renal diseases and its associated burden on healthcare have tremendously risen in the past few years. From simple markers assessing kidney function, current renal research delves into understanding the diseases at the cellular and molecular levels and not just at treating, but at improving quality of life, arresting ...
