No relevant association between coronary artery ectasia and mean platelet volume, gamma-glutamyltransferase and uric acid levels

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2013
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate whether there is an association between mean platelet volume (MPV), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) and uric acid and coronary artery ectasia (CAE) in a large patient population.

Giant Aneurysm of The Non-Coronary Sinus of Valsalva

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Aneurysms of the sinuses of Valsalva are defined as dilatation of the aortic root region between the aortic annulus and the sinotubular junction. Isolated aneurysms of the sinus of Valsalva are rare cardiovascular pathologies.

Relation of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio with the presence and severity of coronary artery ectasia

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2013
Objectives: It has been shown that the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (N/L ratio) is associated with cardiovascular events and mortality. In this study, we investigated the N/L ratio in patients with coronary artery ectasia (CAE).

Bioengineered Lymphatic Vessels in Synthetic Matrices to Study Breast Cancer Cell Functions

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Lymphatic vessels are involved in cancer metastasis. To study the interplay between metastasizing cancer cells and lymphatic vessels under highly reproducible conditions, advanced in vitro models are required. In this work, 3D lymphatic networks are formed in biomimetic hydrogels and their interactions with invasive and non‐invasive cancer cell‐lines ...
