Objective: The MRL mouse strain shows extraordinary wound healing capacities. Some years ago, Leferovich et al. (Proc Natl Acad Sci U. S. A. 2001;98:9830-35) have reported the absence of scar formation after cryogenically-induced right ventricular myocardi ...
Drug eluting stents (DES) have been successfully implemented in clinical practice in the treatment against coronary artery disease. Compared to the implantation of bare metal stents, restenosis rates decreased significantly after stenting of DES into coron ...

Cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, are the leading cause of death worldwide for both men and women. Current therapies are limited by the restricted intrinsic regeneration capacity of the heart and by the lack of organs for transplant ...
The mechanical interactions between heart contraction and perfusion of the heart are difficult to study in humans because of the restrictions in inducing changes in hemodynamic and cardiac mechanics parameters during catheterization. We hypothesize that th ...
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance has been shown to provide high data quality for myocardial perfusion assessment However, to analyze the perfusion data, some signal processing and modeling is needed to correct for motion related artifacts and limited spat ...

We present a method that is based on the Ladd-Frenkel (LF) thermodynamic integration for the study of the rigidity of networks of particles bonded together by short-ranged square well attractive potentials. We show that, by taking the limit of the attracti ...

OBJECTIVE: Besides its predictive role in determining cardiovascular risk, C-reactive protein (CRP) may exert direct proatherogenic effects through proinflammatory properties. CRP is mainly produced by hepatocytes in response to interleukin-6 (IL-6) and is ...
Coronary artery disease is one of the main causes of death in western countries. The standard of care has become the implantation of a coronary stent, i.e. a small metal-mesh tube reopening the lumen of the artery and maintaining the blood flow to the hear ...
This study was performed to investigate the role of chronic pretreatment with angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonists (ARB) and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) in myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic preconditioning (iPC). Little is ...
