Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Carotid Endarterectomy

Annals of Surgery, 1976
Carotid endarterectomies have been performed for over a decade now. To review the knowledge derived from this surgical experience, i studied 18 reports on the subject, giving attention to four specific phases of patient care: the diagnostic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods.

Carotid endarterectomy

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 1998
Although controversies still exist, recently reported trials have confirmed the efficacy of carotid endarterectomy and more clearly elucidated the appropriate indications for surgical therapy. The efforts to optimize outcomes for patients with carotid artery disease have expanded to the asymptomatic patient, the patient suffering from stroke, and the ...

ASCORE: an up-to-date cardiovascular risk score for hypertensive patients reflecting contemporary clinical practice developed using the (ASCOT-BPLA) trial data. [PDF]

, 2013
A number of risk scores already exist to predict cardiovascular (CV) events. However, scores developed with data collected some time ago might not accurately predict the CV risk of contemporary hypertensive patients that benefit from more modern ...
