Coronary Plaque Erosion

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
Guidelines for clinical care are derived most commonly from large clinical trials involving thousands of patients. These trials are usually conducted to test hypotheses that have been developed from interesting clinical observations and innovative pilot trials.

New Concepts on the Pathophysiology of Acute Coronary Syndrome

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is the most severe form of ischemic heart disease. Although it is caused by atherosclerotic plaque thrombosis or nonatherosclerotic causes, its pathophysiological mechanism of ACS is not fully understood, and its concept is ...

A Sustainable Biotechnology Approach for Mineral Separation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silver‑binding peptides are first identified through phage‐display screening, and then engineered into multifunctional and responsive peptides or proteins. These tailored biomolecules can selectively capture and aggregate silver particles or ions from complex mixtures, enabling rapid and efficient silver separation and recovery.

Atherothrombosis in Acute Coronary Syndromes—From Mechanistic Insights to Targeted Therapies

Cells, 2021
The atherothrombotic substrates for acute coronary syndromes (ACS) consist of plaque ruptures, erosions and calcified nodules, while the non-atherothrombotic etiologies, such as spontaneous coronary artery dissection, coronary artery spasm and coronary ...

Transducer Materials Mediated Deep Brain Stimulation in Neurological Disorders

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses advanced transducer materials for improving deep brain stimulation (DBS) in neurological disorders. These materials respond to light, ultrasound, or magnetic fields, enabling precise, less invasive neuromodulation. Their stimulus‐responsive properties enhance neural control and adaptive therapy, paving the way for next‐generation ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Management and Outcome of Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Caused by Plaque Rupture Versus Plaque Erosion: An Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Plaque rupture and erosion are the 2 most common mechanisms for acute coronary syndromes. However, the outcome of these 2 distinct pathologies in patients with acute coronary syndromes has never been studied.

Biologically Active Implants Prevent Mortality in a Mouse Sepsis Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular, triple‐action titanium implant is developed to prevent implant‐associated infections by repelling bacteria, killing pathogens, and enhancing tissue integration. Coatings with phage cocktails targeting P. aeruginosa and S. aureus show significant bacterial reduction and improved survival in a mouse sepsis model.
