Arterial calcification in rheumatoid arthritis

Artery Research, 2008
Arterial calcification most often occurs in patients with end-stage renal disease who undergo hemodialysis or hyperparathyroidism and it is independently associated with cardiovascular events and death.

Idiopathic arterial calcification in infancy [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1974
Two cases of idiopathic generalized arterial calcification in infancy are described. The changes in the vessels consist of calcification in relation to the internal elastic lamina, with secondary subintimal proliferation of fibrous tissue and, occasionally, extension into the media.

Freestanding Hierarchical‐Porous BCZT Thin Films Enable Efficient Ultrasonic Energy Harvesting in Soft Tissue

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Freestanding hierarchical‐porous BCZT thin films integrate a compliant porous surface with a dense piezoceramic backbone to balance mechanical reliability, voltage sensitivity, and acoustic coupling. The films enable stable wearable pulse‐wave monitoring and enhanced tissue‐coupled ultrasonic energy harvesting, offering a promising route toward soft ...

Prospects for a comprehensive assessment of sclerostin, arterial calcification and stiffness in the context of coronary heart disease

Siberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture
Background. Coronary heart disease is accompanied by increased calcification and vascular stiffness, which is associated with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events. This manuscript focuses on the contribution of sclerostin to the development

Restoring Endothelial Mitochondrial Homeostasis With a Bioactive Nanoshield Promotes Vascular Regeneration on Cardiovascular Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioactive poly(citrate‐polyglycol‐procyanidin) (PCGP) nanoshield is developed for cardiovascular implants to restore endothelial mitochondrial homeostasis following vascular injury. By preserving mitochondrial integrity, re‐establishing metabolic balance, and activating PI3K/Akt/eNOS‐NO signaling, the PCGP interface promotes functional endothelial ...

An Injectable, Self‐Expanding Hemostatic Foam for Field‐Compatible Postpartum Hemorrhage Management

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal death worldwide, yet many treatments are hard to use outside well‐equipped hospitals. This work introduces an easy‐to‐use device that rapidly delivers a degradable foam into the uterus. The foam stops bleeding through pressure and clotting support, offering a practical option for low‐resource ...

An Extracellular Pore‑Targeting Peptide Defines a Designable Allosteric Site in TRPV2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Structure‐guided peptide engineering yields Depiv2, a highly potent and subtype‐selective TRPV2 inhibitor that binds to the extracellular pore and remodels it into a closed, non‐conductive state. Depiv2 suppresses pathological cardiac hypertrophy, establishing the TRPV2 outer pore as a designable interface for selective peptide modulation.

Caseous Peripheral Medial Arterial Calcification With Inflammation and Luminal Occlusion

JACC: Case Reports
Background: Caseous calcification is a rare form of calcification characterized by liquefactive degeneration into amorphous, cheese-like material. Although well recognized in mitral annular calcification, it has not been reported in peripheral arteries ...

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...
