A targeted antiferromagnetic nanoprobe for ultra‐sensitive magnetic resonance imaging detection of sub‐millimeter esophageal tumors

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
We developed a cyclo‐RGD peptide‐conjugated antiferromagnetic nanoparticle (RANP) as a targeted T1 contrast agent. Under 9 T MRI conditions, RANP exhibited an r1 value of 1.88 mM−1 s−1 and a low r2/r1 ratio of 1.84, enabling the detection of esophageal tumors as small as 0.8 mm in vivo. Abstract Early, non‐invasive detection of esophageal cancer at sub‐

Are Women at Higher Risk for Isolated Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement? Results From 178,000 STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database Patients

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Female sex is a well‐established risk factor for morbidity and mortality in cardiac surgery. Aims This study aimed to assess the characteristics and contemporary outcomes of surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in women compared to men. Methods All patients who underwent isolated SAVR from 2014 through 2022 were identified using

Three‐Year Outcome of Drug Coated Balloon Angioplasty Following Atherectomy for Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We aimed to compare the long‐term efficacy and safety of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) and drug‐eluting stent (DES) following atherectomy for coronary arteries with severely calcified lesions. Of the 258 consecutive patients and 422 de novo lesions treated with DCB at Kanazawa Medical University Hospital, we retrospectively enrolled highly ...
