Predicting progression of aortic stenosis by measuring serum calcification propensity

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1297-1302, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The aim of this prospective, double‐blinded study in patients with aortic sclerosis was to determine whether a new calcification propensity measure in the serum could predict disease progression. Methods We included 129 consecutive patients with aortic sclerosis as assessed during a routine clinical echocardiographic exam. Clinical,

PO-23 A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW ON THE EFFECT OF ACUTE AEROBIC EXERCISE ON ARTERIAL STIFFNESS REVEALS A DIFFERENTIAL RESPONSE IN THE UPPER AND LOWER ARTERIAL SEGMENTS

open access: yesArtery Research, 2016
Objectives: The overall impact of resistance-type exercises and chronic physical activity on the modulation of arterial stiffness has been well characterized; however, the impact of acute aerobic exercise remains unclear.

Arterial Stiffness in the Heart Disease of CKD.

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2019
CKD frequently leads to chronic cardiac dysfunction. This complex relationship has been termed as cardiorenal syndrome type 4 or cardio-renal link. Despite numerous studies and reviews focused on the pathophysiology and therapy of this syndrome, the role

Antihypertensive agents and arterial stiffness [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thoracic Disease, 2016
Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is the goldstandard method to measure arterial stiffness (1), which has been shown to be an important predictor of cardiovascular events and death (1-3).

“Therapies Through Gut:” Targeted Drug Delivery for Non‐Gastrointestinal Diseases by Oral Administration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the mechanism of targeted delivery of nanoparticles including 1) paracellular, 2) endolysosomal escape, 3) receptor mediated endocytosis, and 4) M cell mediated transport for non‐GI diseases by oral administration such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and brain diseases. Abstract Oral drug delivery is a promising approach

Sex differences in flexibility-arterial stiffness relationship and its application for diagnosis of arterial stiffening: a cross-sectional observational study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Arterial stiffness might be related to trunk flexibility in middle-aged and older participants, but it is also affected by age, sex, and blood pressure.

Hydrogel Adhesive Integrated‐Microstructured Electrodes for Cuff‐Free, Less‐Invasive, and Stable Interface for Vagus Nerve Stimulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a cuff‐free, less‐invasive surgical approach for vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) by combining ultrathin Y‐shaped kirigami electrodes is developed with a chemically cross‐linked hydrogel adhesive (hydrogel‐kirigami). Unlike conventional cuff implantation, which may damage nerves and nearby critical vessels, this new technique minimizes ...

Association between fibrinogen/albumin ratio and arterial stiffness in patients with type 2 diabetes: A cross-sectional study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Background: Fibrinogen albumin ratio (FAR) is significantly correlated with the severity and prognosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Arterial stiffness is an early lesion of CVD, but no studies have examined the correlation between arterial stiffness ...

Structural and hemodynamic properties in murine pulmonary arterial networks under hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Detection and monitoring of patients with pulmonary hypertension, defined as mean blood pressure in the main pulmonary artery above 25 mmHg, requires a combination of imaging and hemodynamic measurements. This study demonstrates how to combine imaging data from microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) images with hemodynamic pressure and flow waveforms from

Aging, Arterial Stiffness, and Blood Pressure Association in Chinese Adults

open access: yesHYPERTENSION, 2019
Arterial stiffness and blood pressure (BP) both increase with aging synchronously. Whether elevated BP results from thickening of arterial wall or vice versa is controversial in previous studies. This study included 17 862 participants without history of
