The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

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 ...
