Fractional Flow Reserve in Acute Coronary Syndromes ∗

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2016
The clinical utility of measuring fractional flow reserve (FFR) in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to guide the decision regarding coronary revascularization is now well established.

Coronary reserve in patients with aortic valve disease before and after successful aortic valve replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In patients with aortic valve disease and normal coronary angiograms coronary reserve was determined by the coronary sinus thermodilution technique. Three groups of patients were studied: 37 preoperative patients; 18 different patients 12.52 months after

Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

The new clinical standard of integrated quadruple stress echocardiography with ABCD protocol

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2018
Background The detection of regional wall motion abnormalities is the cornerstone of stress echocardiography. Today, stress echo shows increasing trends of utilization due to growing concerns for radiation risk, higher cost and stronger environmental ...

Coronary pressure measurement and fractional flow reserve [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1998
The shortcomings of coronary arteriography to assess the physiological significance of coronary stenoses have been recognised for decades1 2; therefore, the importance of additional physiological techniques is beyond doubt. One of the currently available physiological techniques is coronary pressure measurement, which has emerged over the past few ...

Coronary vasomotor tone during static and dynamic exercise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Coronary vasomotion is an important determinant of myocardial perfusion in patients with angina pectoris, and it influences not only normal but also stenotic coronary arteries.

A New Approach in Risk Stratification by Coronary CT Angiography. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
For a decade, coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) has been used as a promising noninvasive modality for the assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as cardiovascular risks.

A Personalized, 3D Printed Polymeric Device for the Prevention of Post‐Myocardial Infarction Cardiac Remodeling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Myocardial infarction often leads to pathological remodelling and ventricular dilatation, key features of HFrEF. This study introduces a personalized, 3D‐printed cardiac restraint device (CARD) printed using rationally designed inks displaying the requested printability and mechanical properties.

CXCR2 Inhibition – a novel approach to treating CoronAry heart DiseAse (CICADA): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2017
Background There is emerging evidence of the central role of neutrophils in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and rupture. Patients with lower neutrophil counts following acute coronary syndromes tend to have a greater coronary flow reserve, which is

An intact animal model for the assessment of coronary blood flow regulation “Coronary blood flow regulation”

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
Coronary blood flow adapts to metabolic demand ("metabolic regulation") and remains relatively constant over a range of pressure changes ("autoregulation"). Coronary metabolic regulation and autoregulation are usually studied separately.
