Knowledge and Perception of Coronary Artery Disease in High-Risk Women [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in America and kills more women each year than all other cancers combined. While women’s level of awareness of heart disease has increased, they often do not perceive their risk of

Hemostatic factors and risk of coronary heart disease in general populations: new prospective study and updated meta-analyses [PDF]

, 2013
<p>Background: Activation of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis may be associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease. We aimed to assess associations of circulating tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen, D-dimer and von Willebrand ...

Radical Retention and Functional Stability of Plasma‐Polymerized Nanoparticles for Long‐Term Biofunctionalization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Plasma polymerized nanoparticles (PPNs) offer a solvent‐free route to functional nanocarriers with long‐lived radicals. This study establishes design principles for long‐term storage of PPNs, demonstrating that dry‐phase storage retains radical content, covalent reactivity, and bioactivity over extended periods. These findings advance the translational

Synthetic Vasopressin and Oxytocin Analogs and Their Potential Use in Hemorrhagic, Traumatic and Septic Shock: A Personal Perspective [PDF]

, 2017
As one of us has stated many years ago, “shock is a significant and sustained loss of effective circulating blood volume. It will eventuate in hypoperfusion of critical peripheral tissues, thus leading to a deficit in transcapillary exchange function in ...

Effect of mediators on coronary circulation

European Heart Journal, 1991
A number of vasoactive mediators have been identified in plasma and in the heart. Some of them may be liberated in inflammatory heart disease. The action of mediators on coronary vasculature in various animal models and their potential role in inflammatory heart disease is reviewed. Their role in patients remains to be determined.

CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq Reveal TREM2's Function in Monocyte Infiltration and Macrophage Apoptosis During Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A method is developed for conducting genome‐wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening of monocyte infiltration in vivo (CRISPR‐MI) that is easily adaptable across a variety of disease models. Through the combination of CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq, this study discovers that Trem2 is a key regulator of early monocyte infiltration in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA ...
