Clinical factors related to the size of Carotid arterial plaque in patients with vascular parkinsonismJ.H., Lee
Per-patient maximal plaque severity was defined by the maximal intraluminal stenosis in any of the coronary segments at the ≥50% stenosis or ≥70% stenosis threshold. For purposes of classification for per-vessel analyses, we considered 4 arterial territories: left main artery (LM), left ...

Several studies have suggested that women are less likely to receive multiple arterial grafts (MAG) than men are.113,114 A study of 57,943 patients undergoing primary elective CABG (11,009 women) found that women received fewer arterial grafts than did men, including fewer bilateral internal tho...
As blood enters the arterial wall, the tear spreads radially and a delamination process subsequently begins, typically in the middle layer of the artery referred to as the tunica media. The structure of the media is lamellar, and during the delamination one lamella separates from the other, ...
vascular function and reduced plaque formation [122]. Furthermore, ghrelin decreased the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and reduced monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) expression, likely contributing to its protective effect in neovascularization...
Here we show, using proteomics profiling to screen plasma from patients with suspected acute VTE, and several case-control studies for VTE, how Complement Factor H Related 5 protein (CFHR5), a regulator of the alternative pathway of complement activation, is a VTE-associated plasma biomarker. ...
Atherosclerotic plaque buildup in arteries can lead to significant cardiovascular diseases. Foam cells in the arterial wall remove modified LDL particles, causing predominantly LDL-derived cholesterol esters to accumulate in cytoplasmic LDs [197]. Cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and APOE regulate th...
Healthy subjects (120) were enrolled at the Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine of the University of Pisa (Sports Medicine Unit), with the following inclusion criteria: (i) diastolic/systolic arterial blood pressure minor than 90–140 mmHg; (ii) plasma triglycerides minor than 150 mg...
(CVDs) are major public health problems that threaten the lives and health of individuals. The article has reviewed recent progresses about ferroptosis and ferroptosis-related intervention approaches for the treatment of CVDs and provided more references and strategies for targeting ferroptosis to prevent...
