Functional assessment of coronary artery disease by intravascular ultrasound and computational fluid dynamics simulation

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2014
Clinical trials have shown that functional assessment of coronary stenosis by fractional flow reserve (FFR) improves clinical outcomes. Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) complements conventional angiography, and is a powerful tool to assess atherosclerotic

Association of aortic and main left coronary aneurysms with severe aortic insufficiency in Takayasu’s arteritis

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2011
Takayasu’s arteritis is a granulomatous vasculitis of unknown etiology that affects mainly the aorta and its branches. As a result of intimal fibroproliferation, segmental stenosis, occlusion, dilatation, and aneurysmal formation of the involved vessels ...

Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

Imaging hemodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesCancer and Metastasis Reviews, 2008
Microvascular permeability is a pharmacologic indicator of tumor response to therapy, and it is expected that this biomarker will evolve into a clinical surrogate endpoint and be integrated into protocols for determining patient response to antiangiogenic or antivascular therapies.

Assessment of the clinical benefits of remote monitoring of cardiac-implanted devices: A single-center study in Japan

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2013
Introduction: The clinical benefits of remote monitoring (RM) of cardiac-implanted devices have not been fully evaluated in Japan. We investigated the clinical benefits of RM in a single center in Japan.

Cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness upon acute high-altitude exposure at 3,700 m in young Chinese men. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
PURPOSE: We aimed at identifying the cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness (AMS). METHODS: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography examinations were performed between 18 and 24 h after arrival at 3,700 m via plane from 500 m (n ...

Immunohistochemical diagnosis of primary cardiac leiomyosarcoma in a Latin American patient

open access: yesRare Tumors, 2017
Primary cardiac malignancies are rare entities. Although sarcomas enclosed the main group of malignant heart neoplasms, primary cardiac leiomyosarcomas are extremely rare and constitutes less than 8% of cardiac tumors.

Recycling cardiogenic artifacts in impedance pneumography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Purpose: Biomedical sensors often exhibit cardiogenic artifacts which, while distorting the signal of interest, carry useful hemodynamic information. We propose an algorithm to remove and extract hemodynamic information from these cardiogenic artifacts.
