Recognition of fibrotic infarct density by the pattern of local systolic-diastolic myocardial electrical impedance [PDF]
Myocardial electrical impedance is a biophysical property of the heart that is influenced by the intrinsic structural characteristics of the tissue. Therefore, the structural derangements elicited in a chronic myocardial infarction should cause specific ...

Complete Revascularization with Multivessel PCI for Myocardial Infarction.
BACKGROUND In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the culprit lesion reduces the risk of cardiovascular death or myocardial infarction.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Hypoxia promotes the epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells via the SIRT1‐FoxO1‐FoxO3‐autophagy pathway, thereby resulting in the fibrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. Activation of SIRT1 or induction of autophagy inhibits this process, alleviating hypoxia‐induced fibrosis.

Differences in mitral annulus remodelling in acute anterior ST elevation and acute inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
Introduction. Myocardial infarction is known to account for left ventricular remodelling and mitral annular distortion. The aim of the study was to assess and compare morphometric changes of mitral annulus in patients presenting with acute anterior or ...

Cardiac stem cells: A promising treatment option for heart failure. [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death in the world. The development of heart failure is mainly due to the loss of cardiomyocytes following myocardial infarction and the absence of endogenous myocardial repair.
