Carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (International Carotid Stenting Study): a randomised controlled trial with cost-effectiveness analysis.

Health Technology Assessment, 2016
BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the treatment of carotid stenosis, but safety and long-term efficacy were uncertain.

Cardioprotective effects of the extracellular chaperone clusterin in acute myocardial infarction

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
In vivo, CLU−/− mice were more susceptible to acute myocardial infarction than CLU+/+ mice. Moreover, inflammation and histone levels were significantly increased in CLU−/− mice compared to CLU+/+ mice following ischemia/reperfusion. In vitro, CLU protects cardiomyocytes from histone‐ and/or hypoxia‐induced cell death.

Localization of lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia Coli into human atherosclerotic plaque [PDF]

, 2018
Experimental studies showed that gut-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is pro-atherogenic, however, its relationship with human atherosclerosis is still to be defined.

The impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic on longitudinal trends of surgical mortality and inpatient quality of care in Ontario, Canada

Journal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Previous studies have shown the COVID‐19 pandemic was associated with reductions in volume across a spectrum of non‐SARS‐CoV‐2 hospitalizations. In the present study, we examine the impact of the pandemic on patient safety and quality of care. Design This is a retrospective population‐based study of discharge abstracts. Methods We applied
