Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Intramyocardial Fat Deposition in Tuberous Sclerosis

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2020
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare autosomal dominant neurocutaneous syndrome. The phenotype is highly variable and may affect several organ systems, the hallmark of the disease being widespread hamartomas or abnormal growth of normal tissues ...

Time-dependent reversal of significant intrapulmonary shunt after liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Background/Aims Although the association between intrapulmonary shunt (IPS) and liver cirrhosis is clear, data of repeated contrast echocardiography (CE) before and after liver transplantation (LT) to evaluate factors associated with IPS are limited ...

Delivery of DNA‐encoded vaccines and proteins in mice using cutaneous suction‐mediated transfection

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cutaneous suction‐mediated transfection in mice for delivery of DNA‐encoded vaccines and proteins. A critical limitation of DNA vaccines and other therapeutics is transfection in vivo to produce the encoded antigens or therapeutic proteins. Cutaneous suction‐based methods have demonstrated effectiveness in many animal models and have been successfully ...

Original research. The Assessment of Epicardial Adipose Tissue in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients. A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2017
Background: This systematic review seeks to evaluate the role of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), quantified either by thickness, assessed by transthoracic echocardiography, or by volume, assessed by cardiac computed tomography (CT), in the follow-up of ...

Intra-cardiac pressure drop and flow distribution of bicuspid aortic valve disease in preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundBicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is more than a congenital defect since it is accompanied by several secondary complications that intensify induced impairments. Hence, BAV patients need lifelong evaluations to prevent severe clinical sequelae.

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Computers in cardiac imaging

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1987
Imaging has become a widely used technique for the evaluation of cardiac disease. Computer technology and techniques have had an enormous impact on many of the available cardiac imaging methods. These methods include echocardiography, digital angiography, radionuclide imaging, X-ray computed tomography and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging.

IV Thrombolysis Facilitates Interventional Reperfusion in Non‐Cardioembolic but Not Cardioembolic Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before thrombectomy for ischemic stroke may alter clot structure and procedural performance. We investigated how IVT relates to thrombectomy metrics across stroke etiologies. Methods We performed a time‐to‐event analysis of consecutive patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (acLVO ...

Risks of cardiac imaging [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Medical Association Journal, 2011
With regard to the research article by Eisenberg and colleagues,[1][1] the authors only briefly note that the radiation-associated increase in cancer risk is higher than for atomic bomb survivors in the Life Span Study (LSS).[2][2] In the LSS, the excess relative risk per sievert (Sv) for the ...

[18F]Fluorodeprenyl‐D2 PET as a Tool to Monitor Disease Activity in GAD65‐Ab Autoimmune Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate [18F]fluorodeprenyl‐D2 ([18F]F‐DED) positron‐emission tomography (PET) imaging as a biomarker of disease activity in autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies. Methods [18F]F‐DED PET was performed in 25 GAD65‐AIE patients and 8 controls using dynamic (0–60 min) and ...
