A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Aortic stenosis: An update

open access: yesWorld Journal of Cardiology, 2010
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease in the world. It is a disease of the elderly and as our population is getting older in both the developed and the developing world, there has been an increase in the prevalence of AS. It is impacting the mortality and morbidity of our elderly population.

Age‐Associated B Cells Contribute to Inflammation Via Antibody‐Independent Mechanisms in Takayasu Arteritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is not a prototypical autoantibody‐mediated disease, accumulating evidence suggests that B cells are involved. This study aimed to investigate the pathway of B cell activation and its contributions to TAK pathogenesis. Methods Histologic analysis of paravascular lymph nodes and affected arteries was conducted

Iatrogenic mitral stenosis following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2015
A 57 year old female underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis. Mild iatrogenic mitral stenosis was noted intraoperatively. Attempts to reposition the device were hampered by aortic angulation.

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.
