Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon due to the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of the vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Preface and Acknowledgement [PDF]
, 2014 Background. The choice of treatment strategy for coronary artery disease is often based on: 1) anatomical information on stenosis locations, and 2) functional information on their haemodynamic relevance, e.g.

Impact of incomplete ventricular coverage on diagnostic performance of myocardial perfusion imaging. [PDF]
, 2017 In the context of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), there is ongoing debate on the merits of using technically complex acquisition methods to achieve whole-heart spatial coverage, rather than conventional 3-slice ...

Coronary artery remodelling [PDF]
Heart, 1998 Intravascular ultrasound shows that many coronary artery atherosclerotic plaques do not encroach on the lumen and therefore are angiographically invisible.1 2 The reason for this phenomenon was first firmly established in human coronary arteries by Glagov and colleagues.3 As a plaque develops the overall cross sectional area of the coronary artery ...

Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...
