Association between apolipoprotein B/A1 ratio and coronary plaque vulnerability in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: an intravascular optical coherence tomography study

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Background Apolipoprotein (Apo) A1 and Apo B are strongly associated with the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, the relationship between the Apo B/A1 ratio and the morphology of coronary vulnerable plaques has not been ...

Optical coherence tomography-guided deferred stenting in acute coronary syndromes

Journal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2022
Acute coronary syndromes were thought to be due to plaque rupture with superimposed thrombus. With optical coherence tomography plaque erosion (PE) can be detected in one third of cases. In young patients without major risk factors one can suspect PE. We

HDL and plaque regression in a multiphase model of early atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2023
Atherosclerotic plaques are accumulations of cholesterol-engorged macrophages in the artery wall. Plaque growth is initiated and sustained by the deposition of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in the artery wall. High density lipoproteins (HDL) counterbalance the effects of LDL by accepting cholesterol from macrophages and removing it from the plaque. In

Prevalence, Features, and Prognosis of Artery‐to‐Artery Embolic ST‐Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction: An Optical Coherence Tomography Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background The major underlying mechanisms contributing to acute coronary syndrome are plaque rupture, plaque erosion, and calcified nodule. Artery‐to‐artery embolic myocardial infarction (AAEMI) was defined as ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction ...

Focal Geometry and Characteristics of Erosion-Prone Coronary Plaques in vivo Angiography and Optical Coherence Tomography Study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Objective: This study compared focal geometry and characteristics of culprit plaque erosion (PE) vs. non-culprit plaques in ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients in whom optical coherence tomography (OCT) identified PE as the cause ...

CD40 ligand inhibits endothelial cell migration by increasing production of endothelial reactive oxygen species [PDF]

, 2002
Background— The CD40/CD40 ligand system is involved in atherogenesis. Activated T lymphocytes and platelets, which express high amounts of CD40 ligand (CD40L) on their surface, contribute significantly to plaque instability with ensuing thrombus ...

J‐SUPPORT research policy for oral mucositis associated with cancer treatment

Cancer Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 4816-4829, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Oral mucositis is one of the main areas of research in supportive and palliative care of cancer patients. However, the methodology of prospective clinical trials on oral mucositis has not been established, despite its uniqueness.

Update of the CLRP eye plaque brachytherapy database for photon-emitting sources [PDF]

, 2021
Purpose: To update and extend the Carleton Laboratory for Radiotherapy Physics (CLRP) Eye Plaque (EP) dosimetry database for low-energy photon-emitting brachytherapy sources using egs_brachy, an open-source EGSnrc application. The previous database, CLRP_EPv1, contained datasets for the Collaborative Ocular Melanoma Study (COMS) plaques (2008). The new
