Cardiac magnetic resonance findings predict increased resource utilization in elective coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

, 2008
Morbidity following CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) is difficult to predict and leads to increased healthcare costs. We hypothesized that pre-operative CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance) findings would predict resource utilization in elective CABG ...

Activation of Spinal Astrocyte α2A Adrenoceptors Protects Against Sepsis‐Induced Heart Injury Through Inhibition of GABAergic Neuronal Necroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study in this paper found that activating the α2A receptors of astrocytes in the thoracic spinal cord can reduce the release of inflammatory factors, thereby decreasing the necroptosis of GABAergic neurons and consequently alleviating myocardial injury caused by sepsis.

Kawasaki Disease: A Never-ending Story?

European Cardiology Review, 2023
The most severe complication of Kawasaki disease, an inflammatory disorder of young children, is the formation of coronary artery aneurysms. It is known that patients with coronary artery aneurysms, particularly those with medium and large lesions, have ...

Systolic ejection murmurs and the left ventricular outflow tract in boxer dogs [PDF]

, 2007
Turbulence of various genesis in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) causes systolic ejection murmurs. The prevalence of murmurs in adult boxer dogs is 50-80%, the majority of which are of low intensity.

Preservation of ALYREF Phase Separation Mitigates Doxorubicin‐Induced Cardiomyocyte DNA Damage and Cardiotoxicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Binding of Doxorubicin to ALYREF disrupts its phase‐separated condensate and induces DNA damage and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes Abstract The clinical utility of the anticancer agent doxorubicin (DOX) is limited by its dose‐dependent cardiotoxicity.

Do patients with suspected heart failure and preserved left ventricular systolic function suffer from "diastolic heart failure" or from misdiagnosis? A prospective descriptive study [PDF]

, 2000
OBJECTIVES: To characterise the clinical features of patients with suspected heart failure but preserved left ventricular systolic function to determine if they have other potential causes for their symptoms rather than being diagnosed with 'diastolic ...

A Redox‐Active and Electroactive Hydrogel Enabled by an Integrated PEDOT@PMOF Nanofiller for Post‐Infarct Myocardial Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated nanoparticle PEDOT@PMOF is constructed as a redox‐active nanozyme and electroactive nanofiller in a cell‐affinity hydrogel platform for acute MI treatment. It is demonstrated that MOF‐based nanozymes have good catalytic ability, and the incorporation of PEDOT increases the conductivity.

Descending aortic calcification increases renal dysfunction and in-hospital mortality in cardiac surgery patients with intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation placed perioperatively : a case control study [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery increases length of hospital stay and in-hospital mortality. A significant number of patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures require perioperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP ...
