Preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and outcome from coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: An elevated preoperative white blood cell count has been associated with a worse outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Leukocyte subtypes, and particularly the neutrophil-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio, may however, convey superior ...

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery Is Not Underutilized! [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2016
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) remains the reference standard for revascularization in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD).1 However, over the past 2 decades, there has been a steady decline in the rate of CABG (Figure 1). This is despite numerous publications supporting the benefit of CABG over medical therapy and over

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 ...

Novel Drug‐Testing Platform for Vascular Injury‐induced Intimal Hyperplasia Using a Microphysiological System

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a 3D vascular injury model using a microphysiological system that mimics key features of intimal hyperplasia. Antiproliferative drugs reduced VSMC proliferation but worsened endothelialdenudation. A combination of diphenyleneiodonium and quercetin effectively reduced proliferation and migration of VSMC and inflammation while ...
