Two New Stenosis Detection Methods of Coronary Angiograms [PDF]
Coronary angiography is the "gold standard" for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD). At present, the methods for detecting and evaluating coronary artery stenosis cannot satisfy the clinical needs, e.g., there is no prior study of detecting stenoses in prespecified vessel segments, which is necessary in clinical practice.

Prevalence of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis and relation to breast feeding trends in the Maltese Islands between 1995 and 2007 [PDF]
Introduction: Several studies have indicated that breastfeeding may protect against the development of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS). This study investigated trends in IHPS over the period 1995-2007 in Malta and analysed the relationship

Clinical Findings Versus Imaging Studies in the Diagnosis of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis [PDF]
Background: Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is the commonest surgical cause of vomiting in early infancy and can be diagnosed clinically or by imaging studies. OBJECTIVES: To assess the accuracy of clinical examination as compared with ultrasound

Ca2+ release via IP3 receptors shapes the cytosolic Ca2+ transient for hypertrophic signalling in ventricular cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Calcium (Ca2+) plays a central role in mediating both contractile function and hypertrophic signalling in ventricular cardiomyocytes. L-type Ca2+ channels trigger release of Ca2+ from ryanodine receptors (RyRs) for cellular contraction, while signalling downstream of Gq coupled receptors stimulates Ca2+ release via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate ...
