Typical course of cystinuria leading to untypical complications in pregnancy: A case report and review of literature

Frontiers in Medicine, 2023
Cystinuria is a rare genetic disorder inherited by an autosomal recessive pattern which affects the transmembrane transporter for the base amino acid cystine. It has a general prevalence of 1 in 7000 with demographic variations.

Symposium 2: New renal protection strategies in mellitus diabetes type 2

Revista de la Sociedad Argentina de Diabetes, 2022
In recent years, the NKF National Kidney Foundation modified the term "diabetic nephropathy" which is only used for biopsy-confirmed pathology using the termof diabetic kidney disease (CKD) in order to understand that some patients with diabetes can have

HSP70 governs permeability and mechanotransduction in primary human endothelial cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HSP70 chemical inhibition reduces endothelial cell proliferation and increases permeability, the latter supported by normal interendothelial junctional protein distribution. HSP70 also plays a role in shear stress response, a hemodynamic force naturally present in blood vessels and correlated with vessel protection.

Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

Abdominal aortic aneurysm influences the indices of arterial stiffness recorded by pulse wave analysis

Arterial Hypertension, 2023
BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), forming a blood reservoir alters the geometry of the aorta, which along with increased stiffness of the aortic wall modifies central blood pressure wave, especially the reflected wave. The aim of the study was

Dietary nitrate and nitrite protect against doxorubicin‐induced cardiac fibrosis and oxidative protein damage in tumor‐bearing mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapies such as doxorubicin can have toxic effects on healthy cardiovascular/heart tissue. Following up on a doxorubicin toxicity study in mice without tumors where nitrate water was cardioprotective (lessened toxicity), this study with tumor‐bearing mice undergoing doxorubicin treatment showed no negative effect of nitrate and nitrite on drug ...

Cardiovascular features of possible autonomous cortisol secretion in patients with adrenal incidentalomas [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Low-grade incomplete post-dexamethasone cortisol suppression in patients with adrenal incidentalomas – recently defined as possible autonomous cortisol secretion (pACS) – has been associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality.

Sex and other predictors of mortality in long-term follow-up of patients with cardiovascular disease and COVID-19: a single-center retrospective study

Scientific Reports
Male sex is a well-known predictor of short-term prognosis in patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Data, however, on long-term outcomes are scarce. We aimed to assess the differences in mortality between sexes and find other important predictors
