Clinical Outcomes and Patient Experiences With Celiprolol Therapy in Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: The First Non‐European Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in COL3A1. European studies have shown that celiprolol may reduce the risk of life‐threatening vascular events, but outcomes in non‐European populations and the therapy's psychological impact remain unclear. We conducted

Multi‐omics data mining combined with experimental validation reveals ferroptosis‐ and autophagy‐associated hub genes as diagnostic candidates and immune modulators in atherosclerosis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using the GSE225650 dataset, we performed differential expression gene (DEG) screening, Weighted Gene Coexpression Network Analysis (WGCNA), and immune infiltration profiling on atherosclerosis (AS) samples, yielding 104 shared candidate genes. Subsequently, these 104 candidate genes were intersected with ferroptosis‑ and autophagy‑related gene sets ...

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Multiscale optoacoustic assessment of skin microvascular reactivity in carotid artery disease

open access: yesPhotoacoustics
Microvascular endothelial dysfunction may provide insights into systemic diseases, such as carotid artery disease. Raster-scan optoacoustic mesoscopy (RSOM) can produce images of skin microvasculature during endothelial dysfunction challenges via ...

Rough Set Based Approach for IMT Automatic Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Carotid artery (CA) intima-media thickness (IMT) is commonly deemed as one of the risk marker for cardiovascular diseases. The automatic estimation of the IMT on ultrasound images is based on the correct identification of the lumen-intima (LI) and media ...
