Enhanced Drug Effect With Cutting Balloon Followed by Drug Coated Balloon in a Rabbit Model
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Drug‐coated balloon (DCB) are effective treatment options for patients with coronary artery disease and using of scoring or cutting balloon before the DCB usage were recommended. However, the effectiveness of lesion preparation with cutting balloons (CB) followed by DCB (CB + DCB) has not been evaluated before.

GAPNet: Granularity Attention Network with Anatomy-Prior-Constraint for Carotid Artery Segmentation [PDF]
arXivAtherosclerosis is a chronic, progressive disease that primarily affects the arterial walls. It is one of the major causes of cardiovascular disease. Magnetic Resonance (MR) black-blood vessel wall imaging (BB-VWI) offers crucial insights into vascular disease diagnosis by clearly visualizing vascular structures.

Hemodynamical Behavior Analysis of Anemic, Diabetic, and Healthy Blood Flow in the Carotid Artery [PDF]
The influence of blood rheology on hemodynamic parameters is investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics on blood flow through the human carotid artery. We performed three-dimensional modeling and simulation to study blood flow through the carotid artery, which is divided into internal and exterior parts with a decreased radius.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a complication linked to poor outcomes. The prognostic impact of mild PVR, particularly in patients with elevated preprocedural left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, remains uncertain.

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 40-51, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Ischemic stroke (IS) has become a cerebrovascular disease of widespread concern. Overexpression of circUCK2 alleviates neuronal damage in IS. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms of circUCK2 are not fully understood. In this study, we found that circUCK2 and HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HECTD1) were downregulated in IS models in ...

An asymmetric surface coating strategy for promotes rapid endothelialization in the rabbit carotid artery [PDF]
arXivStudying surface modification has long been a key area for enhancing the effects of vascular stents after surgery. The study aimed to develop an asymmetric drug-eluting stent (ADES) with differential drug loading on its inner and outer surfaces, hypothesizing that this design would enhance drug delivery efficacy for percutaneous coronary interventions (
