Abstract Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active visceral fat depot located between the myocardium and the visceral pericardium, exerting direct paracrine and vasocrine effects on the heart and coronary vessels. Under physiological conditions, EAT supports myocardial energy metabolism and thermoregulation through fatty acid supply and

Back to Basics: A Curriculum to Address the Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia Workforce Crisis
ABSTRACT The field of pediatric cardiac anesthesia faces a critical workforce shortage. Survival of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) has improved dramatically, increasing both lifetime procedural demand and case complexity. At the same time, the supply of fellowship‐trained pediatric cardiac anesthesiologists is shrinking due to an aging ...

Liraglutide inhibits chronic stress‐induced vascular injury in mice by inhibiting the activation of the PI3K‐mTOR signaling pathway and promoting autophagy of smooth muscle cells or macroautophagy. ABSTRACT Chronic stress is a significant risk factor for postoperative restenosis and other cardiovascular diseases, as it can promote the intimal ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
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 ...
