Acute cardiac inflammatory responses to postischemic reperfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Objectives: The investigation centers on whether there is a reperfusion-induced specific cardiac inflammatory reaction after bypass surgery. Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) leads to systemic inflammation.

Proteolysis at the extracellular matrix interface: Molecular architects and regulators in health and disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.

Does lipoprotein (a) level have a predictive value in restenosis after coronary stenting?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2011
Objectives: Lipid disorders, lipoproteins, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension are the known risk factors for coronary artery diseases; however, their role is unknown in restenosis after coronary stenting.

Examination of the coatings of coronary stents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In our study the main properties of coated coronary stents are shown, such as foreshortening, recoil, surface features and failures and the expansion properties. The types and the effects of active and passive coatings are introduced.

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.

Caracterización de la restenosis de stents coronarios convencionales y liberadores de medicamentos en pacientes incluidos en el registro DRug Eluting STent (DREST) Characterization of conventional coronary stents restenosis and drug eluting stents in patients included in the Drug Eluting Stent Registry (DREST)

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Cardiología, 2012
Introducción y objetivos: los stents convencionales presentan tasas de restenosis intrastent entre 10% y 60%, mientras los stents liberadores de fármacos alcanzan el 10%. Para Latinoamérica, no hay reportes de restenosis intrastent en comparación con los

Recurrent carotid artery stenosis successfully and safely treated with drug-coated balloon angioplasty under flow reversal

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Carotid artery restenosis after index carotid artery revascularization reduces its stroke prevention benefit. A 73-year-old woman presented with recurrent right carotid artery restenosis following two carotid endarterectomies with patch angioplasty and ...

Microfocal X-Ray Computed Tomography Post-Processing Operations for Optimizing Reconstruction Volumes of Stented Arteries During 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Restenosis caused by neointimal hyperplasia (NH) remains an important clinical problem after stent implantation. Restenosis varies with stent geometry, and idealized computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models have indicated that geometric properties of ...

Use of balloon catheter dilation and steroid-eluting stent in light and severe rhinosinusitis of frontal sinus: a multicenter retrospective randomized study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVE: Frontal sinus surgery has an increased rate of re-stenosis, if compared to other sinuses, that mainly depends on recurrent inflammation and abnormal scarring at the frontal recess; its reduction represents one of the keys of therapeutic ...

Estrogen as a therapeutic agent: Targeting endotheliopathy and coagulopathy in trauma

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Traumatic injury remains a leading cause of death, often due to uncontrolled hemorrhage and trauma‐induced coagulopathy (TIC). TIC is critically triggered by the endotheliopathy of trauma, involving endothelial cell injury and glycocalyx degradation. Despite conventional advances, the stable casualty rate underscores the urgent need
