Identifying lncRNA- and Transcription Factor-Associated Regulatory Networks in the Cortex of Rats With Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the mechanism underlying cerebral dysfunction after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA), although the exact details have not been elucidated.

Association of Mid- to Late-Life Blood Pressure Patterns With Risk of Subsequent Coronary Heart Disease and Death

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: The elevated blood pressure (BP) at midlife or late-life is associated with cardiovascular disease and death. However, there is limited research on the association between the BP patterns from middle to old age and incident coronary heart ...

Pulse Pressure, Cognition, and White Matter Lesions: A Mediation Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
This study aimed to investigate the effects of pulse pressure (PP) on cognition and the role of white matter lesions (WMLs) in mediating this association. We enrolled 3,009 participants from the SPRINT-MIND study.

Prognostic Implication of Liver Function Tests in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction Without Chronic Hepatic Diseases: Insight From TOPCAT Trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: Liver dysfunction is prevalent in patients with heart failure (HF), but the prognostic significance of liver function tests (LFTs) remains controversial. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) had been introduced for some time,

Association of Post-operative Systolic Blood Pressure Variability With Mortality After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: Blood pressure variability (BPV) has long been considered a risk factor for cardiovascular events. We aimed to investigate whether post-operative systolic BPV was associated with early and late all-cause mortality in patients undergoing ...

Assisted Circulation [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1963
The effect of counterpulsation upon hemodynamics and myocardial oxygen consumption was studied in 14 dogs. With properly synchronized counterpulsation, a reduction in mean systolic pressure, tension-time index, left ventricular work, and myocardial oxygen consumption was observed, with no change in effective cardiac output.
