Transthoracic Doppler echocardiography – noninvasive diagnostic window for coronary flow reserve assessment

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2003
This review focuses on transthoracic Doppler echocardiography as noninvasive method used to assess coronary flow reserve (CFR) in a wide spectrum of clinical settings. Transthoracic Doppler echocardiography is rapidly gaining appreciation as popular tool

A novel rat model of pulmonary artery embolism and the application value of lung ultrasound B‐lines in early‐stage pulmonary embolism

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We report a novel embolus‐induced PE rat model prepared via the inferior vena cava under ultrasound guidance. The embolus employed featured a tubular plastic casing filled with thrombus. By minimizing the contact surface between plasmin and thrombus, it effectively restrains the elevated plasmin activity in rats.

Automated 4D flow cardiac MRI pipeline to derive peak mitral inflow diastolic velocities using short-axis cine stack: two centre validation study against echocardiographic pulse-wave doppler

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2023
Background Measurement of peak velocities is important in the evaluation of heart failure. This study compared the performance of automated 4D flow cardiac MRI (CMR) with traditional transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TTE) for the measurement of ...

Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...

A case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy combined with muscular ventricular septal defect and abnormal origin of right coronary artery

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a myocardial disease. However, the coexistence of HCM with muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD), especially those with both incomplete spontaneous closure and coronary abnormal origin, is relatively ...

TWEAK/Fn14 Signaling Drives Oxidative Cardiac Injury in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Evidence From Patient Biomarker Studies, Lupus Mouse Models, and Cardiomyocyte Assays

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement is a major cause of morbidity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Tumor necrosis factor–like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is elevated in SLE, but its contribution to lupus‐associated cardiac injury is unclear. We investigated the role of TWEAK/fibroblast growth factor–inducible 14 (Fn14) signaling in SLE‐related ...
