Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Leptin Reduces Running in a Rodent Anorexia Nervosa Model via a Distributed Neural Network

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperactivity is a persistent and clinically relevant symptom in anorexia nervosa (AN). Hyperactivity is inversely correlated with leptin levels. While systemic leptin administration attenuates hyperactivity in rodent models, the specific brain regions mediating this effect remain unclear.

Mass culture of equine synovial fluid‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells using nonwoven polyethylene terephthalate fabrics

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Culture protocols need to yield 100 million equine synovial fluid (SF)‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (SF‐MSCs) in around 3 weeks are needed, before these cells can be evaluated as agents of articular repair in clinical trials. Objectives To investigate mass culture of equine SF‐MSC culture protocols using nonwoven polyethylene ...

Dexmedetomidine infusions improve cardiovascular and renal function in anaesthetised, experimentally endotoxaemic horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine infusions are beneficial in anaesthetised endotoxaemic horses when administered concurrent to endotoxin, but post‐conditioning effects are unknown. Objectives To evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine infusion is beneficial in horses administered Escherichia coli O55:B5 lipopolysaccharides (LPS) endotoxin prior to ...
