Age‐related changes in the coronary microcirculation influencing the diagnostic performance of invasive pressure‐based indices and long‐term patient prognosis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1195-1205, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives Investigate age‐related changes in coronary microvascular function, its effect on hyperemic and non‐hyperemic indices of stenosis relevance, and its prognostic implications. Background Evidence assessing the effect of age on fractional flow reserve (FFR), resting mean distal intracoronary pressure/mean aortic pressure (Pd/Pa), and ...

Acute Thrombotic Occlusion of Right Coronary and Left Circumflex Coronary Arteries in a Patient with Antiphospholipid Syndrome: Successful Stent Implantation

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, 2010
Antiphospholipid syndrome is a rare disorder. Acute myocardial infarction is uncommon among these patients. Here we report a case of a 44-year-old man with antiphospholipid syndrome admitted for acute inferior myocardial infarction.

Percutaneous Recanalization of Chronically Occluded Coronary Arteries: A Consensus Document Part II

open access: yesCirculation, 2005
In Part I of this article, the definitions, prevalence, and clinical presentation of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) were reviewed, the histopathology of CTOs was examined, efforts to replicate human CTOs with experimental models were appraised, and the ...

Reversible High‐Affinity Binding of Coagulation Factor Xa to Zeolites Induces Accelerated Blood Coagulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A calcium‐dependent, specific biorecognition between coagulation factor Xa (FXa) and zeolite is discovered. It alters the prothrombin activation pathway to a more efficient mechanism by mimicking the FXa/factor Va (FXa/FVa) interaction formed during the natural coagulation cascade.

Coronary angiography of the ex‐situ beating donor heart in a portable organ care system

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 100, Issue 7, Page 1252-1260, December 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives To determine safety and feasibility of ex‐situ coronary angiography. Background To cater for the perpetually growing demand for heart donors, interest in donation following circulatory death (DCD) has been rekindled. Further pursuit of donor pool expansion has led to eligibility extension to “marginal” donors who are at higher risk ...

Graph Convolutional Networks for Coronary Artery Segmentation in Cardiac CT Angiography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Detection of coronary artery stenosis in coronary CT angiography (CCTA) requires highly personalized surface meshes enclosing the coronary lumen. In this work, we propose to use graph convolutional networks (GCNs) to predict the spatial location of vertices in a tubular surface mesh that segments the coronary artery lumen.

Pulmonary artery from the left main coronary artery

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2019
The usual sources of pulmonary blood flow in pulmonary atresia (PA) with(VSD) are patent ductus arteriosus and aortopulmonary collaterals. However, rarely fistulous collaterals may also arise from the coronary arteries which usually open into the main ...

Decursin‐Loaded Nanovesicles Target Macrophages Driven by the Pathological Process of Atherosclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents decursin, a traditional Chinese medicine monomer, that inhibits lipid accumulation and inflammation in atherosclerosis through PKCδ interaction. A novel targeted delivery system (ALD@EM) is developed to overcome decursin's short half‐life, combining antibody‐mediated targeting, LDL‐facilitated chemotaxis, and enhanced macrophage ...
