Microvascular tissue transfer in reconstruction of anterior skull base defects secondary to sinonasal malignancies: a case series and proposed reconstructive framework

Egyptian Journal of Neurosurgery
Sinonasal malignancies such as lymphoepithelial carcinoma (LEC) and esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) are rare but aggressive neoplasms that frequently necessitate extensive resection of anterior skull base structures, creating complex defects.

Symposium 13: Impact of prediabetes on microvascular disease

Revista de la Sociedad Argentina de Diabetes, 2022
Many studies have reported that more than a third of adults newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes have some degree of renal, retinal, or neuropathic damage from the onset of the disease, suggesting that the alterations that lead to microvascular disease ...

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction and Microvascular Angina

International Journal of Cardiovascular Practice, 2019
Many patients present with myocardial ischemic symptoms, but fail to be diagnosed of obstructed coronary artery disease, since the normal coronary arteries or no any atherosclerosis stenosis ≥ 50% at coronary angiography. Myocardial ischemia can be caused by either abnormalities of epicardial coronary arteries or coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD)

Effectiveness of a Novel Low‐Density Lipoprotein Apheresis Device Rheocarna in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Chronic Limb‐Threatening Ischemia: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) is a severe form of lower‐extremity artery disease characterized by distal lesions and microcirculatory impairment, limiting revascularization efficacy. Rheocarna is a direct hemoperfusion low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) adsorption device with potential rheological and anti‐inflammatory ...

A simple automated method for continuous fieldwise measurement of microvascular hemodynamics

, 2019
Microvascular perfusion dynamics are vital to physiological function and are frequently dysregulated in injury and disease. Typically studies measure microvascular flow in a few selected vascular segments over limited time, failing to capture spatial and

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Inhibition of Rho kinase decreases hydraulic and protein microvascular permeability in cat skeletal muscle

, 2003
Rho-associated kinases are involved in regulation of actin–myosin contractility and the organization of the actin cytoskeleton in both endothelial and smooth muscle cells.

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair
