Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

Az atherosclerosis kisállat modelljei

open access: yes, 2020
Az atherosclerosis, vagyis az erek elmeszesedése hazánkban egyre gyakrabban előforduló kóros jelenség a fiatalabb korosztály körében is. Ennek okai a nyugati társadalomnak megfelelő zsír- és szénhidrátdús táplálkozás, és a következményes elhízás, az ...

Coronary and carotid atherosclerosis : how useful is the imaging?

open access: yes, 2013
The recent advancement of imaging modalities has made possible visualization of atherosclerosis disease in all phases of its development. Markers of subclinical atherosclerosis or even the most advanced plaque features are acquired by invasive (IVUS, OCT)

Availability of Cardio-Ankle Vascular Index (CAVI) as a Screening Tool for Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: A novel index, the cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), which reflects the stiffness of the aorta, femoral artery, and tibial artery, was recently developed by measuring brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and blood pressure.

An Engineered Biomimetic Nanoreactor With Cascade Functions for Targeted and Combinatorial Therapy of Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Preparation of RVG‐modified erythrocyte membrane‐coated HMPB nanocarriers loaded with L‐arginine and NBP (RM@HPAN) and its neuroprotective mechanism. After intravenous injection, RM@HPAN achieves prolonged circulation, RVG‐29‐mediated BBB penetration, and ischemic accumulation.

ApoE gene therapy: an overview and update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Atherosclerosis remains the leading cause of death in industrialized societies. Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is an attractive candidate to treat hypercholesterolemia and coronary heart disease, as it is a circulating protein with pleiotropic ...

The association between cerebral atherosclerosis and arterial stiffness in acute ischemic stroke

open access: yes, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Arterial stiffness is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and atherosclerosis. Measurement of pulse wave velocity (PWV) is one of the most representative and noninvasive techniques for assessing arterial stiffness.

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Sepsis and obesity: a scoping review of diet-induced obesity murine models

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental
Background Sepsis, the life-threatening host response to infection, is a major cause of mortality. Obesity increases vulnerability to sepsis; however, some degree of obesity may be protective, called the “obesity paradox”.

Reverse-D-4F improves endothelial progenitor cell function and attenuates LPS-induced acute lung injury

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2019
Background Patients with acute lung injury (ALI) have increased levels of pro-inflammatory mediators, which impair endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) function.
