Effects of nesfatin-1 on atrial contractility and thoracic aorta reactivity in male rats

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2018
Background: This study aimed to examine the effects of nesfatin-1 on thoracic aorta vasoreactivity and to investigate the inotropic and chronotropic effects of nesfatin-1 on the spontaneous contractions of the isolated rat atria.

Redox‐Responsive Mitochondrial Delivery from Functionalized Vascular Stent Surfaces

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A redox‐responsive stent surface is engineered to deliver functional mitochondria in response to oxidative stress. Upon exposure to reactive oxygen species, grafted mitochondria are released, internalized by vascular cells, and restore mitochondrial function under stress.

Computational Simulations for Aortic Coarctation: Representative Results From a Sampling of Patients [PDF]

, 2011
Treatments for coarctation of the aorta (CoA) can alleviate blood pressure (BP) gradients(D), but long-term morbidity still exists that can be explained by altered indices of hemodynamics and biomechanics.

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Late‐Onset Spondylarthritis Presenting as Glucocorticoid‐Resistant Polymyalgia Rheumatica: A hitherto underappreciated entity where TNF or IL‐17 Blockade may have a Therapeutic Role

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an age‐related inflammatory disease with shoulder‐hip girdle involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveals extracapsular/entheseal soft tissue involvements in both PMR and spondyloarthritis (SpA) with sacroiliac joint and peri‐entheseal spinal bone marrow oedema (BMO) being characteristic of SpA ...
