Intravascular imaging in coronary stent restenosis: Prevention, characterization, and management

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Despite the introduction of drug-eluting stents to combat the neointimal hyperplasia that occurred after BMS implantation, in-stent restenosis is still encountered in a significant number of patients, particularly as increasingly complex lesions are ...

Coronary artery endothelial dysfunction is positively correlated with low density lipoprotein and inversely correlated with high density lipoprotein subclass particles measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. [PDF]

, 2009
OBJECTIVE: The association between cholesterol and endothelial dysfunction remains controversial. We tested the hypothesis that lipoprotein subclasses are associated with coronary endothelial dysfunction.

Left Main Coronary Artery Ostial Stenosis in a Pediatric Patient With Sudden Cardiac Arrest

JACC: Case Reports, 2023
Pediatric resuscitated sudden cardiac arrest may result from diverse conditions and, therefore, warrants a comprehensive work-up. Although rare, coronary artery abnormalities must be ruled out in these patients.

When life-threatening conditions appear clinically silent: an atypical presentation of spontaneous coronary artery dissection in a 60-year-old female [PDF]

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2016
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is a poorly understood phenomenon that usually affects women during pregnancy or the immediate post-partum period. We present the case of a 60-year-old female with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who presented

Coronary CT Angiography and 5-Year Risk of Myocardial Infarction. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Although coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) improves diagnostic certainty in the assessment of patients with stable chest pain, its effect on 5-year clinical outcomes is unknown.

Short dual right coronary artery without obstructive coronary artery disease causing obligatory coronary ischemia

Heart India, 2021
We present an extremely rare case series of two short dual right coronary arteries (RCAs), causing coronary ischemia without the presence of obstructive coronary artery disease. We describe here the presence of short dual RCA in a 55-year-old nondiabetic,

The endothelial glycocalyx prefers albumin for evoking shear stress-induced, nitric oxide-mediated coronary dilatation [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Shear stress induces coronary dilatation via production of nitric oxide ( NO). This should involve the endothelial glycocalyx ( EG). A greater effect was expected of albumin versus hydroxyethyl starch ( HES) perfusion, because albumin seals ...
