Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Endothelial Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: The Passive Leg Movement Technique in the Assessment of Nitric Oxide–Mediated Vascular Impairment

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Objective To evaluate the impairment of nitric oxide (NO)–mediated vascular function in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) compared with healthy controls through passive leg movement (PLM), which is a noninvasive technique largely dependent on NO bioavailability. Methods Twenty‐one patients with SSc and 21 age‐ and sex‐matched healthy controls were

Stent Thrombosis: A Narrative Review From Pathophysiology to Therapy

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
Stent thrombosis remains a life‐threatening complication of PCI driven by complex interactions between stent design, procedural factors, thrombogenic milieu, and inflammation. This review integrates pathophysiological mechanisms with contemporary and emerging therapeutic strategies, highlighting optimized PCI, tailored antithrombotic therapy, and novel

Fibrin Thrombus in Unstable Angina and NSTEMI

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2011
The exact role of fibrin, which is transparent and almost invisible, in coronary thrombus formation and accordingly in the genesis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains unknown. This is because there are no clinically available methods with which to visualize fibrin.

Targeting inflammation in cardiometabolic disease: Icosapent ethyl modulates monocyte‐derived macrophages isolated from patients with cardiovascular disease with or without type 2 diabetes

Diabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Aims Despite intensive lipid‐lowering therapy, individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) exhibit residual inflammatory risk, which drives recurrent cardiovascular events. This risk is amplified in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), where a pro‐inflammatory milieu accelerates atherogenesis. Monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs)

Elevated Hemoglobin Levels and Risk of ST‐Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in High‐Altitude Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Retrospective Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 934-943, March 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background High‐altitude populations typically exhibit elevated hemoglobin (Hb) levels due to chronic hypoxic exposure; however, the impact of this elevation on the risk of ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Existing evidence is primarily derived from low‐altitude populations and cannot be directly extrapolated
