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 ...
Atherosclerosis is a disease characterized by lipid accumulation in the vascular wall leading to myocardial infarction or stroke. Hypercholesterolemia is an important risk factor and current treatments are largely based on cholesterol lowering. In spite of ...
Echocardiography is a widely used imaging technique to examine myocardial function in patients with known or suspected heart disease. The analysis of ventricular wall motion and deformation, in particular, allows to assess the extent of myocardial ischemia ...
We present a new method for estimating heart motion from two-dimensional echocardiographic sequences by exploiting two ultrasound modalities: B-mode and tissue Doppler. The algorithmestimates a two-dimensional velocity field locally by using a spatial affi ...
We present a new method for estimating heart motion from two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic sequences. It is inspired by the Lucas-Kanade algorithm for optical flow which estimates motion parameters over a sliding window. However, instead of assuming t ...
We present a new framework to estimate and visualize heart motion from echocardiograms. For velocity estimation, we have developed a novel multiresolution optical flow algorithm. In order to account for typical heart motions like contraction/expansion and ...
Purpose: To improve the quantification of myocardial perfusion by registering the time series of magnetic resonance (MR) images with injection of gadolinium. Materials and Methods: Eight patients underwent MR scans to perform myocardial perfusion exam. Two ...
Blood flow patterns in the coronary arteries are of interest due to their possible involvement in atherosclerosis localization. Spatial variations in hemodynamic flow patterns are predominantly determined by the vessel geometry. The coronary arteries repre ...
Previously, we found evidence that bisferiens peaks in the radial artery pressure wave in the newborn infant may suggest the presence of a left-to-right shunt through a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). The purpose of the present study was to analyze the ori ...
The influence of development and ethinylestradiol (EE) on apolipoprotein (apo) A-I, A-II, and E mRNA in rat liver and intestine was studied by dot blot hybridization and Northern blot analysis. ApoA-I mRNA levels were maximal in the perinatal period and de ...
