Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

ABSTRACT Neurological deterioration, headache, vomiting, bradycardia, or hypertension after emergent percutaneous coronary intervention should prompt immediate brain imaging. When subarachnoid hemorrhage is detected shortly after coronary stenting, the hemorrhage onset may remain uncertain, and antiplatelet decisions require individualized ...

ABSTRACT A 63‐year‐old man presented with melena and severe anemia 18 years after nephrectomy for clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Imaging and biopsy confirmed duodenal and pancreatic metastases mimicking pancreaticobiliary malignancy. He underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract Since 1858, human atherosclerotic plaques have been shown to contain immune cells. But are these cells suitable therapeutic targets? Dozens of clinical trials of anti‐inflammatory agents other than colchicine have been performed in patients with clinically evident atherosclerosis.

Coronary CT angiography—future directions
Clinical applications of coronary CT angiography (CTA) will typically be based on the method´s very high sensitivity to identify coronary stenosis if image quality is good and if the pre-test likelihood of the patients is in the lower range. Guidelines of national and international cardiac societies are starting to incorporate coronary CTA into their ...

On the History of Hepatic Vein Catheterization
ABSTRACT Hepatic vein catheterization (HVC) in man was first performed 80 years ago in the wake of right‐sided heart catheterization. Several new methods, recognitions and concepts followed, especially the indirect Fick‐method for determination of splanchnic blood flow. Five years passed before pressure measurements were performed and routine HVCs were

Objectives Since coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common comorbidity in patients with aortic valve stenosis, invasive coronary angiography (ICA) can be avoided if significant CAD can be screened with the non-invasive coronary CT angiography (cCTA ...

Contrast Kinetics in CT Coronary Angiography
AbstractComputed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) is a technically demanding radiological investigation that requires adequate opacification of coronary arteries at peak aortic enhancement phase, with minimal or no contrast in the superior vena cava and right-sided cardiac chambers to avoid streak artifacts of dense contrast.

Wnt3a Downregulation Contributes to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus by Impairing Pancreatic β‐Cell Function
Wnt3a downregulation is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in clinical patients and high‐fat diet (HFD)‐induced mouse models. In MIN6 pancreatic β‐cells, knockdown of Wnt3a impairs insulin secretion and β‐cell function under insulin‐resistant conditions, while recombinant Wnt3a treatment rescues these defects.
