Identification of Autologous Tissue Sources and Optimization of a Treatment Method for Intraoperative Manufacturing of Heart Valve Constructs

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 9, Page 1237-1253, September 2026.
The use of autologous connective tissue, such as pericardium or peritoneum, combined with controlled tissue treatment, has the potential to result in a more durable heart valve prosthesis than current commercial prostheses. ABSTRACT Introduction Valvular heart disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Current biological and mechanical

Immature Neutrophil Phenotype and Enhanced Myeloperoxidase in Male Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiovascular Comorbidity

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased cardiovascular risk. Since neutrophils and neutrophil‐borne proteins contribute to cardiovascular disease, we analyzed the neutrophil phenotype in patients with CKD who presented with a spectrum of cardiovascular comorbidities.

Cardiac volumes, function, and arterial stiffness five years after severe preeclampsia: A comparison with sedentary and active controls

open access: yesClinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Aims Preeclampsia is a pregnancy disorder characterized by hypertension and multiorgan failure related to endothelial damage. It is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life, but pathophysiological mechanisms are unclear, and strategies to identify women at risk are missing.

Functional Markers of Vascular Aging: Subendocardial Viability Ratio, Augmentation Pressure, and Augmentation Index as Links to Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the correlation of functional hemodynamic parameters, including subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR), augmentation pressure (AP) and heart‐rate‐corrected augmentation index (Aix@75), with age and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk in a Chinese population.

Pathogenesis of calcific aortic valve disease

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) represents a disease spectrum, ranging from mild aortic valve sclerosis to severe obstructive aortic stenosis (AS), associated with a high risk of myocardial infarction and cardiovascular death. It is a common disease in the Western countries, and with their aging populations, its prevalence is likely to ...
