Natriuretic Peptide Receptor 2 Locus Contributes to Carotid Remodeling

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Carotid artery intima/media thickness (IMT) is a hallmark trait associated with future cardiovascular events. The goal of this study was to map new genes that regulate carotid IMT by genome‐wide association.

Anatomical study of the carotid bifurcation and origin variations of the ascending pharyngeal and superior thyroid arteries [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Human anatomy texts in current use have very little precise information as to the frequency of variations in the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, and a clear description of the relation between external and internal carotid arteries ...

Shape‐Reconfigurable Crack‐Based Strain Sensor with Ultrahigh and Tunable Sensitivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A highly sensitive crack‐based sensor with tunable strain detection capabilities is demonstrated through controlled nanocrack formation in a line‐patterned shape memory polymer substrate. The sensor design integrates thermoplastic polyurethane and poly(lactic acid), enabling thermo‐responsive reconfiguration of crack geometry.

Surface Metrology of Cerebral Arteries Luminal Surface [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Atherosclerotic lesions within carotid and cerebral vessels are likely to influence hemodynamics and manifest into vascular pathologies, including Alzheimers Disease and ischemic stroke. Hemodynamics are influenced by changes in luminal diameter of vessels and wall shear stress derived from turbulence, which directly relates to the surface topography ...

Non‐Surgical, In‐Stent Membrane Bioelectronics for Long‐Term Intracranial Pressure Monitoring

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This image shows a sequence of long‐term intracranial pressure monitoring using non‐surgical, in‐stent membrane bioelectronics. Abstract Traditional intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring methods, using intraventricular catheters, face significant limitations, including high invasiveness, discrete data, calibration complexities, and drift issues, which

CircUCK2 regulates HECTD1‐mediated endothelial‐mesenchymal transition inhibition by interacting with FUS and protects the blood–brain barrier in ischemic stroke

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 40-51, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Ischemic stroke (IS) has become a cerebrovascular disease of widespread concern. Overexpression of circUCK2 alleviates neuronal damage in IS. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms of circUCK2 are not fully understood. In this study, we found that circUCK2 and HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HECTD1) were downregulated in IS models in ...

Uncertainty-based quality assurance of carotid artery wall segmentation in black-blood MRI [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The application of deep learning models to large-scale data sets requires means for automatic quality assurance. We have previously developed a fully automatic algorithm for carotid artery wall segmentation in black-blood MRI that we aim to apply to large-scale data sets.
