The Electrocardiogram in Population StudiesOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 21 Số 6 - Trang 1160-1175 - 1960

Information now available about the prevalence and incidence of coronary heart
disease is seriously deficient because of the lack of standardized and objective
methods of collection, tabulation, interpretation, and reporting of survey data.
Chief reliance in the objective diagnosis of coronary heart disease rests on the
electrocardiogram, a crucial tool in population studies. A classification syst... hiện toàn bộ
Hormonal Changes and Catabolic/Anabolic Imbalance in Chronic Heart Failure and Their Importance for Cardiac CachexiaOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 96 Số 2 - Trang 526-534 - 1997
Stefan D. Anker, Tuan Peng Chua, Piotr Ponikowski, Derek Harrington, J. Swan, Wolfgang J. Kox, Philip A. Poole‐Wilson, Andrew J.S. Coats
Background The role of hormonal and cytokine abnormalities in the development of
cardiac cachexia remains obscure. Methods and Results Healthy control subjects
(n=16) and patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), classified clinically as
cachectic (8% to 35% weight loss over ≥6 months before study, n=16) or
noncachectic (n=37), were assessed for markers of disease severity (maximal

Elastase-induced experimental aneurysms in rats.Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 82 Số 3 - Trang 973-981 - 1990
Samy Anidjar, J L Salzmann, D Gentric, P Lagneau, Jean-Pierre Camilleri, J.-B. Michel
An experimental in vivo model of aortic aneurysm was established by perfusing an
isolated segment of rat abdominal aorta with pancreatic elastase. Ten rats were
used in each protocol. Saline-perfused aortas developed no aneurysmal dilations.
Elastase-perfused aortas contained aneurysms in the perfused area and a total
loss of elastic tissue. Control aortas contained no elastic tissue lesions.

The Assessment of Operative Results in Congenital Heart Disease by Intraoperative Indicator-Dilution CurvesOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 33 Số 2 - Trang 263-269 - 1966
Andrew G. Morrow, H. NEWLAND OLDHAM, George M. Callard, Eugene Braunwald
In 260 patients with intracardiac shunts, indicator-dilution curves were
recorded immediately after corrective operations. In every patient, the
effectiveness of the repair was also determined at late postoperative cardiac
catheterization or necropsy. In 248 patients (96 per cent) the presence or
absence of a shunt, determined from the intraoperative curves, was confirmed by
the findings at postop... hiện toàn bộ
Randomized Study on Simple Versus Complex Stenting of Coronary Artery Bifurcation LesionsOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 114 Số 18 - Trang 1955-1961 - 2006

Background— The optimal stenting strategy in coronary artery bifurcation lesions
is unknown. In the present study, a strategy of stenting both the main vessel
and the side branch (MV+SB) was compared with a strategy of stenting the main
vessel only, with optional stenting of the side branch (MV), with
sirolimus-eluting stents. Methods and Results— A total of 413 patients with a
bifurcation lesion ... hiện toàn bộ
Randomized Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Slow- and Moderate-Release Polymer-Based Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents for Coronary Artery LesionsOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 108 Số 7 - Trang 788-794 - 2003
Antonio Colombo, J Drzewiecki, Adrian Banning, Eberhard Grube, Karl Eugen Hauptmann, Sigmund Silber, Dariusz Dudek, Stephen Fort, François Schiele, K Zmudka, Giulio Guagliumi, Mary E. Russell
Background— Early clinical studies demonstrated the feasibility of local
paclitaxel delivery in reducing restenosis after treatment of de novo coronary
lesions in small patient populations. Methods and Results— We conducted a
randomized, double-blind trial of 536 patients at 38 medical centers evaluating
slow-release (SR) and moderate-release (MR) formulations of a polymer-based
paclitaxel-eluting... hiện toàn bộ
ZEB2 Shapes the Epigenetic Landscape of AtherosclerosisOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 145 Số 6 - Trang 469-485 - 2022

Background: Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) transition into a number of different
phenotypes during atherosclerosis, including those that resemble fibroblasts and
chondrocytes, and make up the majority of cells in the atherosclerotic plaque.
To better understand the epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms that mediate
these cell state changes, and how they relate to risk for coronary artery
disease (... hiện toàn bộ
The microRNA-342-5p Fosters Inflammatory Macrophage Activation Through an Akt1- and microRNA-155 –Dependent Pathway During AtherosclerosisOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 127 Số 15 - Trang 1609-1619 - 2013
Yuanyuan Wei, Maliheh Nazari-Jahantigh, Lily Chan, Mengyu Zhu, Kathrin Heyll, Judit Corbalán-Campos, Petra Hartmann, Anna Thiemann, Christian Weber, Andreas Schober
Background— Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease driven by
the subendothelial accumulation of macrophages. The mechanism regulating the
inflammatory response in macrophages during atherogenesis remains unclear.
Because microRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in cellular signaling by
posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression, we studied the miRNA
expression profiles dur... hiện toàn bộ
The Rate of Change of Left Ventricular Volume in ManOvid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) - Tập 49 Số 4 - Trang 739-747 - 1974
K E Hammermeister, J.Richard Warbasse
Because there is little quantitative information about the hemodynamics of left
ventricular diastolic events in man, single-plane cineangiographic left
ventricular volume curves were quantitatively analyzed at 16.6 msec intervals to
evaluate the rate and amount of left ventricular filling during the early
passive stage of filling and during the time of atrial contraction. The peak
rate of passive ... hiện toàn bộ
