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 ...

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

A New Paradigm: 46 Structural Cell Types Function as Environment‐Supporting Innate Immune Cells, With Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells as Key Prototypes

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The scope, organization, and biological significance of innate immune functions across structural cell types remain poorly defined. To address these fundamental knowledge gaps, we analyzed experimental data of transcriptomes generated by our group and others.

[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.

Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...
