1.6 DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS ON CAROTID PERFUSION OF INTRA-AORTIC BALLOON PUMP SUPPORT

open access: yesArtery Research, 2009
Introduction: Intra-aortic balloon pumping is widely used to augment diastolic coronary perfusion. However, far less is known about its effects on other large arteries. In this study we assessed the effects of intra-arterial balloon pump pressure support

Bilateral carotid artery geometry using magnetic resonance angiography: a 10-year longitudinal single center study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Aging and atherosclerotic progression can lead to geometric changes in the carotid arteries. We conducted a longitudinal study to investigate geometric changes in the bilateral carotid arteries.

Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Overlapping Genetic Background of Coronary Artery and Carotid/Femoral Atherosclerotic Calcification

open access: yesMedicina, 2021
Background and objectives: Multivessel atherosclerosis and its genetic background are under-investigated, although atherosclerosis is seldom local and still causes high mortality.

MECHANISMS OF DISEASE Acute Oxygen-Sensing Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
JOSEPH PRIESTLEY, ONE OF THE THREE SCIENTISTS CREDITED WITH THE discovery of oxygen, described the death of mice that were deprived of oxygen. However, he was also well aware of the toxicity of too much oxygen, stating, “For as a candle burns much faster

Impact of Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage on Outcome After Endovascular Stroke Treatment

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) achieves high rates of recanalization in acute large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke, but functional recovery remains heterogeneous. While symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) has been well studied, the prognostic impact of asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (aICH) after EVT is less certain ...

PRAS40 suppresses atherogenesis through inhibition of mTORC1-dependent pro-inflammatory signaling in endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Endothelial pro-inflammatory activation plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis, and many pro-inflammatory and atherogenic signals converge upon mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR).

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Low prevalence of significant carotid artery disease in Iranian patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2007
Background Coronary artery bypass grafting ranks as one of the most frequent operations worldwide. The presence of carotid artery stenosis may increase the stroke rate in the perioperative period.
