Transplant Coronary Artery Disease

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
Transplant coronary artery disease (TCAD) remains the most significant cause of morbidity and mortality after orthotopic heart transplantation. Transplant coronary artery disease is largely an immunologic phenomenon, driven by an inflammatory milieu consisting of multiple cell types that contribute to fibromuscular and smooth muscle cell proliferation ...

Effect of Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Goal Achievement on Vascular Physiology Evaluated by Quantitative Flow Ratio in Patients Who Underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Purpose: The change in coronary physiology from lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) lacks an appropriate method of examination. Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) is a novel angiography-based approach allowing rapid assessment of coronary physiology.

The Coronary Artery Disease Paradox [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 1995
After effective antihypertensive therapy was introduced in the 1950s, we rapidly showed that lowering blood pressure in patients with hypertensive crises saved lives. In the 1960s, the benefit for those with asymptomatic elevations of diastolic blood pressure levels of > or = 115 mm Hg was proven and, in the early 1970s, the value for those with ...
