Diabetes and mortality risk in patients undergoing coronary angiography: The KARDIO study
Abstract Background Diabetes is an established risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes including mortality, but the relationship between diabetes and mortality risk in the presence of the extensive or diffuse form of coronary artery disease (CAD) is controversial. Aims We evaluated the association between diabetes and mortality risk in patients

Th17/Treg balance and macrophage polarization ratio in lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans
Objective: To explore the balance of peripheral blood T helper 17 cells/regulatory T cell (Th17/Treg) ratio and the polarization ratio of M1 and M2 macrophages in lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO).

Previously, we demonstrated age‐related nitration of ECM‐bound HGF (myogenic stem satellite cell activator), preferentially in fast IIa and IIx myofibers. Rat anti‐HGF monoclonal antibody 1C10 was generated; 1C10‐bound HGF resists peroxynitrite‐induced nitration of HGF‐Y198/Y250 to retain its c‐met binding and satellite cell activation activities in ...

Abstract Aim With the increasing number of older people worldwide, dentists have more opportunities to manage patients whose oral health requires attention. Such patients often need to undergo minor dental surgery to restore their oral function; however, they usually experience post‐treatment complications that directly reduce their quality of life ...

Lung cancer is extremely rare in patients with Werner's syndrome, and it is rarely treated surgically because of poor postoperative wound healing. We herein present a case of surgical management of lung cancer in a patient with Werner's syndrome in which a successful outcome was achieved with no major complications. Abstract Werner's syndrome is a rare

Arteriosclerosis obliterans in Japanese diabetic patients.
Arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) of the lower extremities was found in 32 cases (1.9%) among 1673 Japanese diabetic patients. Comparison with age-and sex-matched control patients revealed that male sex, older age, hypertension and neglect of treatment of diabetes were positively correlated with ASO, but obesity, smoking and hyperlipidemia were not ...

Deletion of endothelial IGFBP5 protects against ischaemic hindlimb injury by promoting angiogenesis
1. IGFBP5 expression is elevated in ischaemic limb or hypoxic endothelial cells. 2. Deletion of IGFBP5 in the endothelium inhibits the deterioration of ischaemia‐induced limb salvage and blood perfusion. 3. IGFBP5 negatively regulates tube formation, cell proliferation and cell migration by blocking IGF signalling via phosphorylation of the IGF1R/Akt ...
