Flow Analysis in Pathological Microvascular Models by Ultrasound Localization Microscopy
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This study presents a new platform combining ultrasound localization microscopy with biomimetic gelatin phantoms to analyze flow dynamics in small vessels with narrowing or obstructions. Using microbubble tracking, the method enables high‐resolution velocity mapping in 100–500 µm channels, revealing flow changes in pathological microvascular conditions

The caveats in the diagnosis of anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) [PDF]
, 2010 Anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is an infrequent, well described, but important anomaly of the coronary origin. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment of the disease can be life saving. However, there are

The glycolytic enzyme PKM2 bridges metabolic and inflammatory dysfunction in coronary artery disease
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2016 Shirai et al. show that the glycolytic enzyme PKM2 serves as a molecular integrator of metabolic dysfunction, oxidative stress and tissue inflammation in macrophages from patients with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease.

Impaired coronary blood flow at higher heart rates during atrial fibrillation: investigation via multiscale modelling [PDF]
, 2019 Background. Different mechanisms have been proposed to relate atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary flow impairment, even in absence of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the underlying hemodynamics remains unclear.
