An Endothelial Contribution to Coronary Vessels [PDF]

Cell, 2012
Despite the profound impact of coronary artery disease on human health, the origins of the coronary blood vessels are poorly understood. Wu et al. use imaging and genetic techniques to show that the endocardium contributes to the coronary vessels and that the coronary arteries and veins have multilineage origins.

Usefulness of Proximal Coronary Wave Speed for Wave Intensity Analysis in Diseased Coronary Vessels [PDF]

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2020
Background: Wave speed is needed to separate net wave intensity into forward and backward traveling components. However, wave speed in diseased coronary arteries cannot be assessed from hemodynamic measurements obtained distal to a stenosis.

18 Month patency of acellular bioengineered regenerative conduit as coronary artery bypass [PDF]

Nature Communications
Coronary artery bypass grafting remains the standard of care for complex coronary artery disease; however, outcomes are limited by failure or lack of suitable native vessels. Tissue-engineered vascular grafts have shown promise in peripheral applications,

Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Hemodynamic Measures as Determinants of Increased Arterial Stiffness Following Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Valvular and arterial function are tightly intertwined, both in terms of structural changes and hemodynamics. While proximal valvulo-vascular coupling contributes to the cardiovascular consequences of aortic stenosis, less is known on how peripheral ...

Artificial Intelligence Models Reveal Sex-Specific Gene Expression in Aortic Valve Calcification

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2021
Summary: Male and female aortic stenosis patients have distinct valvular phenotypes, increasing the complexities in the evaluation of valvular pathophysiology.

Layered Plaque in Organic Lesions in Patients With Coronary Artery Spasm

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Coronary artery spasm plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of coronary plaques. We sought to investigate the plaque characteristics of co‐existing organic lesions in patients with coronary artery spasm in comparison to those without coronary

Segmental Tissue Speckle Tracking Predicts the Stenosis Severity in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
ObjectiveTwo-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) has been used as a diagnostic tool for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, whether vessel supplied myocardial strain and strain rate (SR) predict the severity of coronary artery ...
