Time trends in survival and readmission following coronary artery bypass grafting in Scotland, 1981-96: retrospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Improvements in coronary revascularisation techniques and an increase in the use of percutaneous interventions1 have led to a rise in the number of coronary artery bypass grafting operations in older patients with more severe cardiac disease and worse ...

Nanostructured 316L Stainless Steel Stent Surfaces Improve Corrosion Resistance, and Enhance Endothelization and Hemocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the impact of nanostructured surface modification on corrosion resistance, HUVEC functions, and platelet interactions of 316L SS for cardiovascular stents. Nanostructured surfaces enhanced HUVEC proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis‐related gene expression while reducing platelet adhesion and hemolysis.

Polymer Nanogels with Albumin Reporting Interface Created Using RAFT Precipitation Polymerization for Disease Diagnosis and Food Testing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Herein, polymer nanogels with a reporting interface for albumin are synthesized through reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) precipitation polymerization of di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate and N,N’‐methylenebis(acrylamide) using a poly(2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) macro‐RAFT agent, followed by dansyl ...

Could remnant-like particle cholesterol become a risk factor in diabetic menopausal women with coronary artery disease? A cross-sectional study of single academic center in China

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2020
Background and aims It has been confirmed that remnant-like particle cholesterol (RLP-C) mediates the progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). Currently there is limited information on RLP-C in menopausal women.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a healthy twenty year old [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as Transient apical ballooning syndrome, stress-induced cardiomyopathy and broken-heartsyndrome, is a rare non-ischemic cardiomyopathy that presents as an acute coronary syndrome without evidence of obstructive

Artificially Weaved Textile‐like Surface Micromachined Graphene‐Polymer Flexible Bioelectrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study reports on the engineering of microscale textured surfaces of SU‐8/PMMA polymer composites much like a “weft‐warp” pattern to resemble “artificially‐weaved” textiles. These microstructured surfaces enable conformal layering of functional reduced graphene oxide (rGO), all‐in‐all offering favorable features including remarkable self ...

Coronary artery spasm : role in acute myocardial ischaemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Coronary artery spasm is an accepted cause of transient myocardial ischaemia in patients with variant angina. The electrocardiographic abnormality, ST segment elevation, which is a hallmark of this syndrome, resembles that seen experimentally when the ...

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.

Responsive Mn‐Ferrite Nanoparticles for Multicolor Magnetic Particle Imaging, Sensing, and Reactive Oxygen Species Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
Magnetic particle spectroscopy and imaging represent promising tools, particularly when combined with manganese‐ferrite nanoparticles as versatile theranostic agents. Adjusting the manganese content allows for simultaneous multi‐color tracer detection and reactive oxygen species sensing via magnetic particle spectroscopy and imaging, creating new ...
