Red blood cell endothelial nitric oxide synthase: A major player in regulating cardiovascular health
Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) have traditionally been seen as simple carriers of gases and nutrients in the body. One important non‐canonical function of RBCs in the cardiovascular system is the regulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. It has been shown that RBCs can scavenge NO, transport NO metabolites and produce NO in hypoxic conditions ...

ABSTRACT Background Despite the emergence of the transcaval (TCv) access route for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the treatment of patients with hostile iliofemoral anatomy, the number of patients reported in clinical series of TCv TAVI has been relatively small (< 500 published cases). We assessed procedural and clinical outcomes in

ABSTRACT Background To reduce complications associated with metal occluders, bioabsorbable occluders have been implanted for perimembranous ventricular septal defects (VSDs) via transthoracic approach. This study investigates the feasibility of echocardiography‐guided percutaneous closure of perimembranous VSDs in children using bioabsorbable occluders,
