Automatic Segmentation of Thoracic Aorta Segments in Low-Dose Chest CT
Morphological analysis and identification of pathologies in the aorta are important for cardiovascular diagnosis and risk assessment in patients. Manual annotation is time-consuming and cumbersome in CT scans acquired without contrast enhancement and ...

Rare association between giant-cell aortitis and giant-cell aortic valvulitis
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a type of chronic vasculitis that affects medium and large-caliber arteries, frequently related to aortic involvement and, consequently, to aneurysm formation. However, associated valvulitis with giant cells is uncommon. We

This review covers the major presentations affecting the aorta: aortic aneurysms (abdominal aortic aneurysms and thoracic aortic aneurysms), acute aortic syndromes (including aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer), other nonacute aortic processes, and traumatic disease of the aorta.

Fibulin-4 is essential for maintaining arterial wall integrity in conduit but not muscular arteries [PDF]
Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in fibulin-4 (FBLN4) lead to autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 1B (ARCL1B), a multisystem disorder characterized by significant cardiovascular abnormalities, including abnormal elastin assembly, arterial ...

The angiographic and clinical profile of patients with Takayasu aortoarteritis
Objective: Takayasu arteritis is a rare, chronic, inflammatory disease that primarily affects the aorta and its major branches. It mainly affects young females, and it can cause significant morbidity and mortality if untreated.

Skeletal Myogenic Progenitors Originating from Embryonic Dorsal Aorta Coexpress Endothelial and Myogenic Markers and Contribute to Postnatal Muscle Growth and Regeneration [PDF]
Skeletal muscle in vertebrates is derived from somites, epithelial structures of the paraxial mesoderm, yet many unrelated reports describe the occasional appearance of myogenic cells from tissues of nonsomite origin, suggesting either ...

Characterization of ribosome heterogeneity during endothelial to hematopoietic transition
The panorama of ribosome heterogeneity during embryonic hematopoiesis has not yet been portrayed. In this study, utilizing dual‐omics data, the heterogenous dynamic of ribosome during endothelial‐to‐hematopoietic transition has been systemically described. Moreover, stage‐specific upregulation and peripheral localization of RPL27 and RACK1 in hemogenic

In this research, a rat model of asthma was created using OVA, and polydatin served as an intervention. By inhibiting ferroautophagy mediated by NCOA4 and averting ferroptosis, polydatin has been demonstrated to reduce asthma. This work presents new ideas for investigating the mechanism of polydatin's ability to alleviate asthma, in addition to ...
