Ventricular remodelling and revascularization in severe left ventricular dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1998
To evaluate the role of surgical revascularization in the presence of severe, global impairment of left ventricular function without discrete aneurysm formation or mitral regurgitation. The high mortality and morbidity associated with this group, together with the limited benefits tend to prompt referral for cardiac transplantation.Fifty-three patients

CSF Monoamine Metabolites and Cognitive Trajectory in Early Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Imaging and postmortem studies indicate that abnormalities in monoaminergic neurotransmission contribute to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it remains uncertain if cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) monoamine metabolites can serve as biomarkers of cognitive decline in early PD.

SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.

Integrative pathway-centric modeling of ventricular dysfunction after myocardial infarction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: A significant proportion of myocardial infarction (MI) patients undergo complex, coordinated perturbations at the molecular level that may eventually drive the occurrence of ventricular dysfunction and heart failure.

The brain in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
After atrial fibrillation, heart failure is the second most frequent cardiac association of stroke. Deteriorating left ventricular systolic function appears to increase the risk of cardioembolic stroke in heart failure.

Maternal Cardiovascular Impairment in Pregnancies Complicated by Severe Fetal Growth Restriction

open access: yes, 2012
—Fetal growth restriction and preeclampsia are both conditions of placental etiology and associated to increased risk for the long-term development of cardiovascular disease in the mother. At presentation, preeclampsia is associated with maternal global

The role of urate and xanthine oxidase in vascular oxidative stress:Future directions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Vascular oxidative stress has been shown to be a potent factor in the pathophysiology of endothelial dysfunction. Despite current optimal evidence-based therapy, mortality from various cardiovascular disorders remains high.
