Anatomical variants and coronary anomalies detected by dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography in North-eastern Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose: Congenital coronary anomalies are uncommon, with an incidence ranging from 0.17% in autopsy cases to 1.2% in angiographically evaluated cases. The recent development of dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) allows ...

Inflammation, atherosclerosis, and coronary artery disease.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2005
ecent research has shown that inflammation plays a key role in coronary artery disease (CAD) and other manifestations of atherosclerosis. Immune cells dominate early atherosclerotic lesions, their effector molecules accelerate progression of the lesions,

Clinical Characteristics and Long-Term Outcomes of MINOCA Accompanied by Active Cancer: A Retrospective Insight Into a Cardio-Oncology Center Registry

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundClinical characteristics and long-term outcomes of patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) and cancer are insufficiently elucidated.ObjectivesWe sought to characterize these patients hospitalized in a

A comparison of balloon-expandable-stent implantation with balloon angioplasty in patients with coronary artery disease. Benestent Study Group.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 1994
BACKGROUND Balloon-expandable coronary-artery stents were developed to prevent coronary restenosis after coronary angioplasty. These devices hold coronary vessels open at sites that have been dilated. However, it is unknown whether stenting improves long-

Attention-based Multi-fidelity Machine Learning Model for Computational Fractional Flow Reserve Assessment [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering 432 (2024): 117338, 2023
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is one of the most common forms of heart disease, which is caused by a buildup of atherosclerotic plaque (known as stenosis) in the coronary arteries, leading to insufficient supplement of blood, oxygen, and nutrients to the heart.

A comprehensive 1000 Genomes-based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2015
Existing knowledge of genetic variants affecting risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) is largely based on genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis of common SNPs.

Androgens and Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine Reviews, 2002
A significant and independent association between endogenous testosterone (T) levels and coronary events in men and women has not been confirmed in large prospective studies, although cross-sectional data have suggested coronary heart disease can be associated with low T in men. Hypoandrogenemia in men and hyperandrogenemia in women are associated with

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
