Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.

Sinus venosus atrial septal defect with severe mitral stenosis: A rare presentation

open access: yesMedical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2015
We present a case of 32-year-old female patient with rheumatic mitral stenosis with sinus venosus atrial septal defect (ASD) and anomalous drainage of the right superior pulmonary vein into right atrium. Sinus venosus ASD are uncommon and constitute 2-3%

Shear Stress Targeted Delivery of Nitroglycerin to Brain Collaterals Improves Ischaemic Stroke Outcome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 40, October 27, 2025.
Shear‐activated nanoparticles carrying nitroglycerin selectively target high‐shear stress collateral vessels during ischaemic stroke, enhancing blood flow to at‐risk brain without systemic side effects. This novel approach significantly improves outcomes in animal models, outperforming conventional nitroglycerin delivery.

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Persistent Oxygen Requirement beyond Prematurity: A Case of Acquired Pulmonary Vein Stenosis

open access: yesCase Reports in Pediatrics, 2017
Acquired pulmonary vein stenosis is a rare cardiac defect and diagnosis can often be challenging, as many cases present with refractory or prolonged oxygen requirement over the expected course.

Multimodality imaging of iatrogenic pulmonary vein stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2011
Pulmonary vein stenosis after radiofrequency ablation occurs up to 3% and requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. Since clinical presentation is variable, a multimodality imaging approach currently provides an essential framework to address the diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Dual‐Pedicle Tissue‐Engineered Trachea Promotes Biomimetic Cartilaginous Framework, Vascularization, and Epithelial Lining for Long‐Segment Tracheal Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Overcoming the limitations of conventional grafts, a biomimetic trachea with two independent vascular pedicles enables rapid integration and sustained patency. This approach markedly improves survival rates, restores the epithelial barrier, and promotes regenerative pathways, presenting a transformative paradigm for clinical application.

Case report of the successful treatment of a rare complication of pulmonary vein stenting: atrial rupture and stent detachment

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a relatively rare pulmonary vascular disease in clinical practice, and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a common cause of pulmonary vein stenosis.

Dual-energy computed tomography-angiography in the evaluation and management of significant multiple pulmonary vein stenoses following atrial fibrillation ablation

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
A 58-year-old male patient with multi-vessel pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis following atrial fibrillation ablation was referred to a specialized pulmonary hypertension clinic. Chest dual-energy computed tomography (CT)-angiography allowed precise diagnosis
