Mechanical properties of human coronary arteries

open access: yes2010 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2010
The lack of reliable mechanical data on coronary arteries and, more specifically, on their wall strength hampers the application of numerical models and simulations to vascular problems, and precludes physicians from knowing in advance the response of ...

Perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Background/Aims Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia.

Variant origin of three main coronary ostia from the right sinus of Valsalva: report of a rare case

open access: yesFolia Morphologica, 2023
Observing anomalies in the origin of the coronary arteries is a rare but recognised scenario during coronarography. All the major coronary arteries originating from the right sinus of Valsalva is an extremely rare anomaly, its reported incidence being 0 ...

Ultrasonic Atomization Spray Coating of PCL on an Mg‐Based Alloy Enhanced by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation for Improved Adhesion, Corrosion Resistance, and Biocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Plasma electrolytic oxidation is combined with ultrasonic spray deposition of polycaprolactone (PCL) on WE43 magnesium alloy to improve adhesion, corrosion resistance, and cytocompatibility. The hybrid coating demonstrates significantly reduced hydrogen evolution and enhances mechanical bonding, offering a promising strategy for next‐generation ...

Interaction between anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate in mediating vasorelaxation in rat coronary artery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
<b>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE</b> Anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) both regulate vascular tone in a variety of vessels. This study aimed to examine the mechanisms involved in the regulation of coronary vascular tone by anandamide and ...

Coronary Artery Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2006
The near exponential rise in percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease and the consequent decline in referral of patients for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has lead to a crisis in cardiac surgery.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Coronary Artery Fistula

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2009
A 72-year-old woman presented with episodes of extreme exhaustion and fatigue occuring at rest. A continuous murmur (never before documented) was heard widely over the precordium. The effort electrocardiogram and echocardiogram were normal.
