Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.

DNA methylation analysis of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene in major depression. [PDF]

, 2012
The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) has been repeatedly discussed as susceptibility factor for major depression (MD) and the bi-directional relation between MD and cardiovascular disorders (CVD).

Clinical Outcomes of Drug‐Eluting Stents and Drug‐Coated Balloons in Tortuous Small Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In small, tortuous coronary lesions, the long‐term comparative performance of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty versus drug‐eluting stent (DES) treatment remains uncertain, despite both strategies being widely used in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) practice. Aims This study aimed to compare 3‐year clinical

Temporal Trends and Prognosis in Rotational Atherectomy: A Comparison of Contemporary and Traditional Eras

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) has undergone considerable technical modernization in recent years. This study evaluated whether RA performed in the contemporary era was associated with superior cardiovascular outcomes compared with the traditional era. Aims To compare the clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes of patients

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.

The Effect of Endogenous Angiotensin II on Alveolar Fluid Clearance in Rats with Acute Lung Injury

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2012
BACKGROUND: In acute lung injury (ALI), angiotensin II (Ang II) plays a vital role in the stimulation of pulmonary permeability edema formation through the angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor.

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor expression in human breast tissues

, 1997
We demonstrate the expression of angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptors in normal and diseased human breast tissues. Using monoclonal antibody 6313/G2, directed against a specific sequence in the extracellular domain of the AT1 receptor ...

Baseline Body Mass Index Category and Incident Treated Hypertension in Australian Men: A Linked Prospective Cohort Study Using PBS/MBS Data

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
Kaplan–Meier hypertension‐free survival by baseline body mass index category, primary adult cohort (men aged ≥ 18 years, n = 12,742). Time since baseline in years is plotted on the horizontal axis and the probability of remaining free of treated hypertension is plotted on the vertical axis. Numbers at risk are shown beneath the plot.
