Multiparametric Cardiac 18F-FDG PET: Pilot Comparison of FDG Delivery Rate with 82Rb Myocardial Blood Flow [PDF]
Myocardial blood flow (MBF) and flow reserve are usually quantified in the clinic with positron emission tomography (PET) using a perfusion-specific radiotracer (e.g. 82Rbchloride). However, the clinical accessibility of existing perfusion tracers remains limited.

Microvascular dysfunction in the immediate aftermath of chronic total coronary occlusion recanalization [PDF]
Objectives The aim of this study was to compare microvascular resistance under both baseline and hyperemic conditions immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of a chronic total occlusion (CTO) with an unobstructed reference vessel in ...

Determination of ADP/ATP translocase isoform ratios in malignancy and cellular senescence
The individual functions of three isoforms exchanging ADP and ATP (ADP/ATP translocases; ANTs) on the mitochondrial membrane remain unclear. We developed a method for quantitatively differentiating highly similar human ANT1, ANT2, and ANT3 using parallel reaction monitoring. This method allowed us to assess changes in translocase levels during cellular

Deep Learning-Based Prediction of Fractional Flow Reserve along the Coronary Artery [PDF]
Functionally significant coronary artery disease (CAD) is caused by plaque buildup in the coronary arteries, potentially leading to narrowing of the arterial lumen, i.e. coronary stenosis, that significantly obstructs blood flow to the myocardium. The current reference for establishing the presence of a functionally significant stenosis is invasive ...

Stability of Diluted Adenosine Solutions in Polyolefin Infusion Bags [PDF]
Background Intravenous or intracoronary adenosine is used in the cardiac catherization lab to achieve maximal coronary blood flow and determine fractional flow reserve.

Fractional flow reserve in patients with reduced ejection fraction
Abstract Aims Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has never been investigated in patients with reduced ejection fraction and associated coronary artery disease (CAD). We evaluated the impact of FFR on the management strategies of these patients and related outcomes.

End-Diastolic Fractional Flow Reserve [PDF]
Background— Diastolic fractional flow reserve (dFFR) has been shown to be highly sensitive for detection of inducible myocardial ischemia. However, its reliance on measurement of left-ventricular pressure for zero-flow pressure correction, as well as manual extraction of the diastolic interval, has been its major limitation ...

Non‐small cell lung cancer targeted treatment is limited to a few known genetic alterations, with few alternatives in advanced treatment lines. To direct treatment decisions by drug sensitivity testing (DST), this study compared several methods for tumor cell isolation from malignant effusions, pointing to repeated CD45+ cell depletion for effective ...

d‐Allulose can be produced from d‐fructose by d‐allulose 3‐epimerase. Based on sequence homology information, we successfully engineered thermostable mutants with the protein engineering method. By integrating positive mutations, we constructed an enzyme that exhibits hyperthermostability without a loss in the activity.
