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 ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

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

This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

This study investigated whether using a larger image matrix (1024 × 1024 pixels instead of 512 × 512) improves the visibility of tiny brain arteries on CT scans performed with standard 64‐slice scanners. While physical image quality measurements remained unchanged, the larger matrix provided finer digital sampling of blood vessel structures, resulting ...

Impact of severe periodontitis and diabetes mellitus on recurrent cardiovascular outcomes
Abstract Background This post hoc analysis of the Periodontitis and Coronary Heart Disease study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01045070) aimed to determine the association between diabetes and recurrent cardiovascular events (CVEs) in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and severe periodontitis.

Abstract Neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are characterized by progressive neuronal loss driven by oxidative stress and inflammation. Quercetin, a dietary flavonoid with established antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties, has emerged as a potential neuroprotective agent.
