Introduction:\nMonomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) often results from scar formation secondary to chronic ischemia or myocardial infarction. Microvascular disease is a known risk factor for myocardial dysfunction as it can lead to focal scar formation and thus increase the risk for VT. Chronic ...

pannexin-1 (Panx1) channels have sparked intense interest as a key mechanism involved in a variety of chronic pain conditions. Panx1 channels are transmembrane proteins that release ions and small molecules, such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). They are expressed along...
Injury of the renal microvascular endothelium alters barrier function after ischemia. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. 2003;2852:F191–8. Article Google Scholar Basile DP, Donohoe D, Roethe K, Osborn JL. Renal ischemic injury results in permanent damage to peritubular capillaries and influences long-...
The important steps include considering coronary vasospasm or coronary microvascular dysfunction [4]. The adenosine-mediated coronary flow reserve, index of microvascular resistance, and hyperemic microvascular resistance should be measured in patients with angina or ischemia with no obstructive coronary ...
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) increases the risk of heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Nonetheless, evidence of cardiovascular (CV) prognosis is relatively scarce in young T2D patients. Purpose: To estimate the risk of al
