Impact of Preoperative Quantitative Flow Ratio of the Left Anterior Descending Artery on Internal Mammary Artery Graft Patency and Midterm Patient Outcomes After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background In coronary artery bypass grafting, grafting a target vessel with nonsignificant stenosis increases the risk of graft failure. The present study aims to investigate the impact of preoperative quantitative flow ratio (QFR), a novel functional ...

[Embolization of mammary artery branches after mammary artery bypass surgery].

Vestnik rentgenologii i radiologii, 2015
Even after performed mammary artery bypass surgery, some patients continued to have clinical manifestations of angina pectoris. This may be associated with the development of coronary stealing syndrome due to the fact that the native intrathoracic artery has large lateral branches.

Disease of South American camelids in England and Wales: Analysis of diagnoses from Animal and Plant Health Agency laboratory submissions between 2012 and 2021

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background South American camelids (SACs) have become increasingly popular in the UK. Consequently, knowledge among veterinary practitioners about diseases in these non‐native species has improved, although gaps remain. The remit of this study was to identify common diseases of SACs based on Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) surveillance ...

Angiotensin II type 2 receptor vasoactivity in internal mammary arteries of patients with coronary artery disease

, 2007
Background: Several animal studies suggested that the angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor subtype mediates vasodilation, yet the results in human arteries are less well described and more inconsistent.

Circulating Musclin is associated with skeletal muscle function and subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with cancer

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and

Comparison of the effect of two left internal mammary artery harvesting techniques (skeletonization and pedicled) on post coronary artery bypass surgery pain and bleeding

Research in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017
Background: Recent evidence suggests that skeletonization of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) can improve the flow and length of the flow, reduce deep sternal infections and postoperative pain.

Periodontitis and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes: Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to describe mechanisms linking periodontal diseases in pregnancy with adverse pregnancy outcomes. ABSTRACT Periodontal diseases, including both gingivitis and periodontitis, occur commonly among pregnant individuals. Both gingivitis and periodontitis are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) such as early ...
