The immune system in atherosclerosis and in acute myocardial infarction

Heart International, 2006
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) occurs when the atheromatous process prevents total blood flow through the coronary artery. It was previously thought that progressive luminal narrowing from the continued growth of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the ...

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

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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

TEAD1‐Mediated Trans‐Differentiation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells into Fibroblast‐Like Cells Contributes to the Stabilization and Repair of Disrupted Atherosclerotic Plaques

Advanced Science
Atherosclerotic plaque rupture mainly contributes to acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Insufficient repair of these plaques leads to thrombosis and subsequent ACS. Central to this process is the modulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) phenotypes,

Treatment of Coronary Perforation in a Bifurcation: Two‐Stent Strategies With Fenestrated Covered Stents

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary perforations are a dreaded complication for any interventional cardiologist. The treatment of this complication is exceptionally difficult when it occurs in a coronary bifurcation. While a conservative approach or a balloon occlusion might be sufficient in some cases, additional treatment is sometimes necessary.

Coronary Slow Flow and No‐Reflow During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Contemporary Insights Into Imaging‐Guided Prediction, Prevention, and Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary slow flow (SF) and no‐reflow (NR) are clinically significant complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly in ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions. Angiographically defined as impaired myocardial perfusion despite restored epicardial patency, SF/NR ...

Adsorption of 5G blue reactive dye using passion fruit pomace: Kinetics, ANN modelling, and process optimization

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Combination of ANN modelling and process optimization to achieve the maximum % dye removal. Abstract The present work reports on the use of artificial neural networks to predict the adsorption of 5G blue reactive dye (5GBRD) on yellow passion fruit pomace in a fixed‐bed process and the % dye removal optimization.
