Metrnl: A Novel Therapeutic Target in Atherosclerosis
ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease and the main pathological basis of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Exploration of endogenous protective factors in the disease is beneficial for the establishment of new therapeutic strategies.

We detect the risk factors and image characteristics of incidentally detected IAAD. Independent risk factors of IAAD included fatty liver and smoking. In the ultrasound findings of IAAD, an intimal flap was frequently observed. In the CT scan, displacement of intimal calcifications was frequently observed. For suspected IAAD, the abdominal aorta should

Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

ABSTRACT Background Whether signal intensity (SI) on Silent MRA reflects hemodynamics in brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) is unclear. Objectives To evaluate the relationship between Silent MRA SI and 4D flow‐derived hemodynamic parameters and examine whether Silent MRA‐based metrics are associated with symptomatic hemorrhage in BAVM.
