Arteriosclerotic aneurysms of the coronary arteries
The majority of aneurysms of the coronary arteries are due to arteriosclerosis. Fusiform aneurysms are common. Because the natural history of these aneurysms and their role in the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction are not clear, neither excision nor repair is justified. Bypass surgery is indicated if proximal obstruction is present.

Catheter Ablation: Evolution and Efficiencies
ABSTRACT The present review includes a discussion the goals and pitfalls of efficiency in the medical profession, a historical perspective on the evolution of catheter ablation in the field of electrophysiology (EP), and the data regarding the relationship between efficiency and outcomes in the EP lab. Focus on efficacy is critical to maximize resource

ABSTRACT Sleep problems are highly prevalent among patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We examined the effect of dietary counselling on sleep outcomes among patients with CVD. We performed secondary analyses within a previously conducted six‐month randomised controlled trial among patients with CVD.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...
