Vine‐Inspired Soft Robotics: Materials, Actuations, and Emerging Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Vine‐inspired robots grow from the tip, enabling navigation through confined spaces with minimal disturbance. This Review summarizes material and actuation strategies for vine‐inspired growth, key functions including steering, retraction, attachment, branching, and variable stiffness, and emerging applications spanning medical intervention, confined ...

Influence of Differential Calcification in the Descending Thoracic Aorta on Aortic Pulse Pressure

open access: yesJournal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews, 2017
Purpose: Multiple studies have shown pulse pressure (PP) to be a strong predictor of aortic calcification. However, no studies are available that correlate PP with aortic calcification at the segmental level.

When to Replace the Ascending Aorta?

open access: yesMethodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2011
Ascending aortic aneurysm, while usually detected incidentally, is a serious condition that requires close monitoring and timely surgical follow up. Management of patients with thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) is optimally performed in a multidisciplinary manner that prevents or delays the need for surgical intervention.

Catastrophic consequences of a free floating thrombus in ascending aorta

open access: yes, 2001
Floating masses in ascending aorta are an uncommon source of embolism. We report the case of a 46-year-old woman, smoker, on synthetic progestagen, with no previous history of thrombotic events, who was admitted to our emergency department for an acute ...

NCOA4 Accelerates Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Formation by Regulating Macrophage Activation and Ferroptosis via STAT1–CH25H Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Under pathological stimulation, NCOA4 in macrophages interacts with STAT1 to promote CH25H transcription. The subsequent increase in 25‐HC production activates macrophages, triggers inflammatory responses and ferroptosis, and accelerates the progression of AAA.

Lactate Signal: Modulator of Cellular Energy Production and Anabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Compartmentalized lactate signaling provides a spatial framework for understanding how lactate‐rich states are generated, transported, sensed, and translated into biological outputs. This Review integrates extracellular, cytosolic, mitochondrial‐associated, and nuclear lactate mechanisms to explain how lactate shapes metabolic adaptation, immune ...

Hounsfield units in the ascending aorta.

open access: yes, 2019
Boxplots illustrating the statistically significant reduction of HU values in the ascending aorta with the applied virtual non-contrast algorithm measured in axial slices as shown in Fig 1. The mean density in the aorta in the virtual non-contrast images

Targeting Nupr1‐Mediated p53 Mitochondrial Sequestration Alleviates Aortic Dissection by Restoring the Gadd45b‐Dependent Survival Program

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies Nupr1 as a crucial stress‐responsive orchestrator driving AD. Under severe stress, Nupr1 massively accumulates within mitochondria to sequester p53, triggering apoptosis and concurrently repressing the Gadd45b‐mediated survival program.

Ascending thoracic aorta dimension and outcomes in acute type B dissection (from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection [IRAD])

open access: yes, 2011
It is not well known if the size of the ascending thoracic aorta at presentation predicts features of presentation, management, and outcomes in patients with acute type B aortic dissection.
