SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1416-1426, April 2025.
Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Development of respiratory motion-resolved hepatobiliary phase cine-magnetic resonance imaging for stereotactic body radiotherapy in liver tumor

Scientific Reports
Cine-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to track respiratory-induced motion of the liver and tumor and assist in the accurate delineation of tumor volume.

Measurement of Blood Flow in the Left Ventricle and Aorta Using Clinical 2D Cine Phase-Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2007
A recent development in phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (cine PC-MRI) allows the detailed measurement of the blood flow in humans. The objectives of this study are twofold: to discuss the utility of clinical two-dimensional (2D) cine PC-MRI as ...

Straight sesamoidean ligament desmopathy commonly occurs with proximal interphalangeal joint osteoarthritis

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Proximal interphalangeal joint osteoarthritis (PIPJ OA) is a common cause of poor performance in the equine athlete; however, the supporting soft tissue structures surrounding the joint are seldom evaluated. Straight sesamoidean ligament injuries have been previously hypothesised to be concomitant with PIPJ OA; however, the ...

Association Between HIV Infection Duration and Left Ventricular Concentric Remodeling and Myocardial Fibrosis: A Cross‐Sectional Study Using Cardiac MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Antiretroviral therapy has transformed HIV into a chronic condition, yet cardiac injury remains a major issue. Purpose To assess the ability of cardiac MR imaging markers to predict cardiac injury and disease progression in HIV‐infected individuals. Study Type Prospective.

Performance of Free‐Running Cardiac and Respiratory Motion‐Resolved Whole‐Heart 5D MRI in Congenital Heart Disease Patients Using a Gadolinium Enhanced Fast‐Interrupted Steady‐State Sequence

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The performance of 5D imaging in CHD has been previously demonstrated using ferumoxytol rather than gadolinium. Purpose To evaluate the performance of gadolinium enhanced 5D MRI relative to 2D and 3D MRI in CHD patients. Study Type Retrospective.

Standardized MRI‐Based Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume: Reproducibility and Agreement With Cardiac Computed Tomography

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is increasingly recognized as a cardiometabolic risk marker associated with adverse outcomes. The most established approach for EATV quantification is cardiac computed tomography (CT). MRI offers a radiation‐free alternative allowing simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and tissue ...

Acceleration of small bowel motility after oral administration of dai-kenchu-to (TJ-100) assessed by cine magnetic resonance imaging. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Dai-kenchu-to (TJ-100) is an herbal medicine used to shorten the duration of intestinal transit by accelerating intestinal movement. However, intestinal movement in itself has not been evaluated in healthy volunteers using radiography, fluoroscopy, and ...
