Monocyte subsets, stanford-A acute aortic dissection, and carotid srtery stenosis. new evidences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Monocytes are a heterogeneous cell population distinguished into three subsets with distinctive phenotypic and functional properties: "classical" (CD14++CD16-), "intermediate" (CD14++CD16+), and "nonclassical" (CD14+CD16++).

Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2010
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiac defect. While the BAV can be found in isolation, it is often associated with other congenital cardiac lesions. The most frequent associated finding is dilation of the proximal ascending aorta secondary to abnormalities of the aortic media.

MHC class II-restricted antigen presentation by plasmacytoid dendritic cells drives proatherogenic T cell immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background—Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) bridge innate and adaptive immune responses and are important regulators of immuno-inflammatory diseases. However, their role in atherosclerosis remains elusive.

A deep learning approach to using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) for diagnosing aortic valve stenosis and predicting aortic hemodynamics obtained by 4D flow MRI [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In this paper, we explored the use of deep learning for the prediction of aortic flow metrics obtained using 4D flow MRI using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) devices. 4D flow MRI provides a comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular hemodynamics, but it is costly and time-consuming.

Peripheral Artery Disease and Aortic Disease [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Heart, 2016
We reviewed published MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis) study articles concerning peripheral arterial disease, subclavian stenosis (SS), abdominal aortic calcium (AAC), and thoracic artery calcium (TAC). Important findings include, compared to non-Hispanic whites, lower ankle-brachial index (ABI) and more SS in African Americans, and higher ...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing and its applications for aortic diseases.

open access: yesCardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy, 2018
Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a process which generates prototypes from virtual objects in computer-aided design (CAD) software. Since 3D printing enables the creation of customized objects, it is a rapidly expanding field in an age of personalized ...

Theoretical impact of insecticide-impregnated school uniforms on dengue incidence in Thai children. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Children carry the main burden of morbidity and mortality caused by dengue. Children spend a considerable amount of their day at school; hence strategies that reduce human-mosquito contact to protect against the day-biting habits of Aedes ...

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of left valvular heart diseases during atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 4: e2240, 2016, 2016
Although atrial fibrillation (AF), a common arrhythmia, frequently presents in patients with underlying valvular disease, its hemodynamic contributions are not fully understood. The present work aimed to computationally study how physical conditions imposed by pathologic valvular anatomy act on AF hemodynamics.
